Today was my 9/80 day off and we didn’t have anything planned so after I mowed the yard and everybody got cleaned up we went to see Jurassic World.
As you can tell we sprung for the 3D version. Same price as the regular version. We can’t just walk by a bargain you know. Anyways, on the movie.
Jurassic World is a Dinosaur Theme Park on an island near Costa Rica. This theme park has real dinosaurs and they have had a problem because you know at first people love dinosaurs then you know after a couple of visits it is like, “I’m all dinosaured out. They are boring.” So the corporate owners of the theme park can’t just recreate actual dinosaurs that existed at one time, they have to do a little genetic engineering to make a super dino. Bigger, louder, meaner, cooler. Well maybe they went one step to far with the Indominous Rex. He is not only bigger, louder, meaner, and cooler but they big guy is very smart also. Smart but not in a good way. He is smart like in a devious and mean way. Just as smart but not as devious and mean as a banker.
I’m not going to give you a summary of the story line. Who cares about that. The movie is about dinosaurs. I will tell you that there is some amazing creatures and effects in this movie. The dino’s look great. Especially when you see them chomping on people and there is lots of that. When they are not chomping on people, they are stomping on them. Other things the movie has are really really bad guys and mad scientists, one kind of semi hot kiss, and one gratuitous cuss word. I mean come on guys, cut the curse word, and make the kiss a little hotter to get the PG rating. Or keep the kiss the same and raise the hem on Bryce Dallas Howard‘s skirt by about six inches. My fifth grade teacher, Misses Conger in Price, Utah wore shorter skirts than Ms. Howard’s. Or show some cleavage or something. Cuss words don’t do a thing for me personally. Not like short skirts or cleavage does anyway.
Funny thing about Ms. Howard. She is the daughter of Ron Howard and her middle name is Dallas because that is where she was conceived. Oh seriously, come on. You know how many suburbs are around Dallas? Richardson, Garland, Flower Mound, Arlington, and Plano among many others. How do we know she wasn’t conceived in Plano, then she would be Bryce Plano Howard. These Hollywood people, why do they think we give a flip where they were conceived?
Ms Howard plays Claire, a really uptight corporate executive with the company who owns Jurassic Park, hence the dowdy clothes. As the movie goes along she loosens up a little bit and her skirt develops a slit and she gets more and more sweaty and her attitude loosens up a little bit. Attitudes tend to loosen up when your butt has been saved and her’s is saved by Owen, played by Chris Pratt. Owen is some sort of ex Navy commando type who is not afraid of anything. Son Logan thinks Pratt should be the next Indiana Jones and I agree with him. Pratt did a great job in this movie. Witty one liners and close escapes plus he is a dinosaur trainer.
I hope that I didn’t give away too much. I give this movie five stars out of five. Check out the movie’s web site Jurassic World. It is set up like a real theme park’s web site and is a lot of fun.
Ah, what a fun post for the day and it does look/sound as though all of you had a great time!!

Hope you and your family have a wonderful weekend!!

Even though we seem to agree often about what is fun, I have to say that the idea of watching dinosaurs chomp people doesn’t make me want to see this movie. But Hey! I’m pleased that the three of you liked it. 🙂
