Rating: 6.5/10
"Jurassic World Rebirth," the seventh installment in the Jurassic Park franchise, attempts to reinvigorate the series with a fresh cast and a back-to-basics approach, but it struggles to recapture the awe and originality of its predecessors. Directed by Gareth Edwards and written by David Koepp, the film delivers thrilling set pieces and strong performances but feels like a retread of familiar territory, lacking the spark that made the 1993 original a cultural phenomenon.
Set five years after Jurassic World Dominion (2022), the story unfolds in a world where dinosaurs are no longer a global threat, confined to equatorial regions due to inhospitable climates elsewhere. The plot centers on Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson), a covert operations expert hired by pharmaceutical representative Martin Krebs (Rupert Friend) to lead a team, including paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis (Jonathan Bailey), to extract DNA from three massive prehistoric creatures on the abandoned InGen island of ÃŽle Saint-Hubert. This genetic material is key to a groundbreaking heart disease treatment. The mission intersects with a shipwrecked family, and both groups face dangers from the island’s mutant dinosaurs, including the chaotic "Distortus rex."
The Good:
Gareth Edwards, known for Godzilla (2014) and Rogue One, brings a keen sense of scale and tension to the film’s action sequences. The opening act is particularly strong, with a B-movie horror vibe that sets high expectations. John Mathieson’s cinematography shines, capturing lush equatorial landscapes and dramatic moments like golden-hour vistas and smoky, flare-lit nights. The cast is a highlight: Johansson delivers a gritty, no-nonsense performance as Zora, while Bailey’s earnest Dr. Loomis adds heart, and Mahershala Ali’s charisma as mercenary Duncan Kincaid elevates every scene he’s in. Their chemistry is a strong anchor, making the human stakes feel real despite a predictable script. Alexandre Desplat’s score, recorded with a 105-piece orchestra, weaves in John Williams’ iconic themes while maintaining a fresh intensity. The visual effects, with over 1,500 shots by ILM, are polished, particularly in depicting the dinosaurs’ scale and menace.
The Not-So-Good:
Despite its strengths, Rebirth feels inessential, leaning heavily on recycled elements from earlier films—stranded families (Jurassic World Dominion), expert-led expeditions (The Lost World), and a dangerous “final boss” creature (Jurassic World). The plot is thin, with a convoluted premise about DNA for medical breakthroughs that raises more questions than it answers (how will three vials treat millions?). The subplot involving the shipwrecked Delgado family feels tacked on, halting momentum whenever the film cuts to them. Critics have noted inconsistencies in the mutant dinosaurs, like the Distortus rex’s fluctuating size, which undermines the film’s tension. The script, while functional, lacks the wit and wonder of Koepp’s original Jurassic Park work, and the franchise’s theme of humanity’s boredom with dinosaurs feels forced—zoos don’t lose appeal, so why would dinosaurs? The removal of Easter eggs referencing the 1993 film, at Spielberg’s request, strips away some nostalgic charm, leaving Rebirth feeling detached from the franchise’s roots.
The Verdict:
Jurassic World Rebirth is a mixed bag—a visually stunning, well-acted summer blockbuster that entertains but doesn’t innovate. It’s a step up from the lackluster Dominion but falls short of the original’s magic or even The Lost World’s adventurous spirit. Fans of the franchise will enjoy the dino-mayhem and nostalgic nods, but those hoping for a true rebirth may leave wanting more. It’s a fun, if forgettable, ride best experienced on the big screen for its scale and effects.
Recommendation: Catch it in theaters for the visuals and action, but temper expectations if you’re seeking the awe of 1993. If you’re a die-hard fan, it’s worth a watch; otherwise, it might be just as satisfying on streaming later.
