Movie Rating Watch

Slightly ruined by the final trailer...

I'm so frustrated that this film has been spoilt by the decision to release the final trailer that pretty much showed the entire film. And not only that, this trailer was shown ahead of Infinity War for the whole world to see. Genius...

This is the main problem with this film. I think parts of it would be fairly predictable anyway, but this trailer has ruined main parts of the film that were never shown in the original trailers. That said, I do feel like some of this is a little cliched and obvious (are they really that naive they can't spot a smarmy bad guy?). But despite all this, I actually still enjoyed watching it.

There are some great scenes in this with the dinosaurs, and had they not gone for a 12A rating, they could've been truly terrifying. This also nearly made me cry on more than one occasion, and it's not often you can say that about a dinosaur film! The ending itself though was entirely unexpected and I'm glad at least they didn't spoil this in the trailer, I'm interested to see where they're going to go with this next. The only thing that confused me was the subplot around Lockwood's granddaughter, there didn't seem to be a massive point to it really even at the end. And was I the only person to see the similarities with Lost World?

If it hadn't been for the trailer, I probably would've rated this slightly higher as I actually found it pretty enjoyable.

Does anyone else hope that they bring back the original trio (Grant, Malcolm and Sattler) for the next film? I'd kill to see that.
