In this sense, its "Dominion" appearance is an improvement.
This is, inexplicably, a less harsh incarnation of the Mosasaurus, who was last seen executing one of the most unnecessary and cruel deaths in modern blockbuster history. In that spirit, here is every dinosaur in "Jurassic World Dominion," ranked. The dinosaurs, as the film argues, deserve all the love we can give them. It's the humans who make "Dominion" hard to swallow. As such, the beasts' collisions with everyday human life make for the movie's most fun moments, whether it's a squad of laser-pointer-controlled raptor assassins (no, I'm not kidding) or the return of the venom-spitting dilophosaurus. "Dominion" trots out more species of creature than any Jurassic film before it, and director Colin Trevorrow and co-writer Elizabeth Mitchell wisely realize that simply seeing all those creatures exist isn't an event anymore - however, watching them cohabitate with humans is. That means, remarkably, that the dinosaurs emerge mostly unscathed. By and large, it is a bloated mess that throws legacy characters and newbies alike through ringers both surprisingly fun (the Malta sequence) and blindingly tiresome (the whole third act).
"Jurassic World Dominion" is the "biggest" Jurassic movie yet, which in no way makes it the best. He might as well be talking about Hollywood sequels.
