‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ Is a Suitably Fun, Undeniably Thin Dino Adventure

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2026-03-06 00:01:51

Jurassic World Rebirth is everything both good and bad about the Jurassic franchise rolled into one. It borrows from the original film with a straightforward story that quickly pits our heroes against a new group dynamic: terrifying dinosaurs. However, it lacks much of the rich characterization and emotions inherent to making that story special. You’re glad that it’s fast-paced and action-packed, but bummed you don’t care that much about it. In the end, though, especially after the previous film

For more than 20 years, NASA has relied on a network of spacecraft circling Mars to send data to and from the Red Planet.
