[Movie] Welcome to the 'Jurassic World'
Ain't I'm glad that I got the ticket at that time. It was really hard to book it. It was even an excruciating wait for the DVD version to come out, so that I could purchase a copy to put it in my Jurassic film collection. To be honest, this film is better watched in the cinema, unless of course, you have your own home theater.

The only things that made this movie extra awesome than rest of the sequels are the magnitude of the background setting, and also new dinosaurs. The first sequel was about the dinosaur park almost finished built but things went wrong, the second sequel was about exploring the dinosaur island and making it a preserve but ultimately they wanted to open another dinosaur park in San Diego but things still went wrong, however on the third sequel it became a rescue mission in dinosaur island.
Which brings us to the fourth sequel. The park was done built. Dinosaurs were on display. Tourists came in droves. They got dinosaur-fish tank, they got dinosaur jungle trek by glass-ball gyrosphere rides, they got dinosaur aviary park, and there were gift shops and restaurants. They got it all. Dinosaur park was open, you'all.

All the dinosaurs in the park was genetically breed using whatever information that they could gleen from whatever sample they managed to get their hands on. It was explained in the film, some from the sequels, that the dinosaurs would not be scientifically accurate due the lack of complete genetic sequence from crazy long time extinct animals. So they may or may not have added some other reptiles and amphibians genes into the mix.
At any rate, it was classified information. Suffice to say, if the dinosaurs were to be cultivated using a complete and proper genetic sequence, the raptors would have feathers, and looked more like oversized chickens. So yes, the park dinosaurs is more of a 'cooler' dinosaurs version, rather than an actual dinosaurs that existed eons ago.

Super dangerous, and super awesome. Named, Indominus Rex. The dinosaur was meant to be the park's new attraction, but there were several problems with this new dinosaur. One of them, is that the dinosaur is highly intelligent. It tried to breaks free from its cage several times. Also, it hate humans, and wanted to kill us all.
Conveniently, there are kids in the park. Not just any kids, Claire's nephew. Zach Mitchell (Nick Robinson) and Gray Mitchell (Ty Simpkins). They came over to see their workaholic aunt. And also dinosaurs. Later on, they got a little bit rebellious, slip into a restricted area using the gyrosphere ride, and almost died.
Simon Masrani (Irrfan Khan), owner of the park and Masrani Global Corporation, came by to see this new attraction, and had a bad feeling about this man-made hybrid dinosaur. He told Claire to get Owen Grady (Chris Pratt), the park's velociraptors trainer, to evaluate the dinosaur and its paddock.
Owen at that time was pestered by the evil adult, Vic Hoskins (Vincent D'Onofrio), head of InGen security operations. Vic tried to convince Owen of the potential of using these trained raptors to urmm.. fight against terrorist, or fight in the war for the military. And Owen told Vic, that is a dumb idea.

It was then, Indominus Rex puts in motion of its carefully planned jail-break sequence. Step one, camouflaged against visual and thermal detectors, and rush out quickly when they open the gate for inspection. Step two, kill everything in sight. Step three, profit!!
Bit by bit, as the park management and security operation tried to subdue the beast, Indominus's gene mix was revealed. Turns out Indominus can camouflage itself like a cuttlefish and regulate its body temperature like a tree frog. Making it super hard to find and subdued.
As usual, mayhem ensued. Oh yeah, remember Claire's nephews? They almost died. But ultimately, the good guys win. Hey, I don't know what to say. Story-wise, its really was the same old formula back from the previous sequels. It began with a grand opening, then mayhem ensues, and good guys win at the end.
But don't worry. The story formula was well adapted, and the movie was great. Also, Dr. Henry Wu, the geneticist, managed to escape. Along with his research. His super dinosaur research.
