I liked the first/original film a lot. The sequels, meh. But after seeing that it was raking in approximately all of the money, (and therefor must be good), my wife wanted to go see this as a family. So we went last night.My sons, age 10 and 14 rated it a 2 stars and 3 stars out of 5, respectively. Their biggest complaint was how everything was completely predictable. My biggest complaint was how brutal it was. In the original Jurassic Park, like 3-4 people died. This movie had like a couple dozen deaths -- some of them, though not bloody gory, where intense. For this, I regret taking my 10 year old.*I found the movie, meh, for many, many reasons, but I completely see how the movie is a hit, because it pretty much followed the Hollywood blockbuster formula. I would not recommend this movie, and I'll forget about it quickly.*My wife pointed out how this was no worse than the Hobbit trilogy in this regard. I agree with that, but we didn't know that children's book would turn out so brutal on film. Although this movie's predictability let my wife know exactly when to cover her eyes to avoid witnessing the dino attacks.Bullgrit</blockquote>
