Saw it on the weekend and absolutely loved it.
I really like that they didn't try to go for the stupid "gritty" reboot that so many franchises try for these days. The opening 30 minutes where we follow the excited kid travelling to the park then arriving and experiencing all the attractions, sites, and sounds of the park truly had me feeling like a 10 year old kid again. Serious waves of nostalgia for my old love of dinosaurs and it truly captured the amount of awe that would come with visiting the park if it actually existed.
I thought the CGI was actually pretty decent for the most part, although the only time it was really let down was some of the raptor scenes and the Mosasaur looked a bit rubbish whenever it left the water. The CG aerial shot panning over the entire park was spectacular though.
I think the early reviewers have missed the boat on this one assuming it was going to be a dud and scrambling to be the first on the FAIL train. I suppose they are the same jackasses that vote for dialogue heavy lefty garbage like Crash to win Oscars though.
It was a great movie in my books and IMO is going to go close to breaking the all time box office record (its already netted over $500 million from its opening weekend alone). I am honestly tempted to go back and watch it again at the movies, which is something I haven't done since the original Jurassic Park as a kid.
