Full Plot
Five years after the events of Jurassic World Dominion, the planet's ecology has proven largely inhospitable to dinosaurs. Those remaining exist in isolated equatorial environments with climates resembling the one in which they once thrived. The three most colossal creatures across land, sea and air within that tropical biosphere hold, in their DNA, the key to a drug that will bring miraculous life-saving benefits to humankind. Covert operations expert Zora Bennett is contracted to lead a skilled team on a top-secret mission to secure the genetic material. When Zora's operation intersects with a civilian family whose boating expedition was capsized by marauding aquatic dinos, they all find themselves stranded on a forbidden island that had once housed an undisclosed research facility for Jurassic Park. There, in a terrain populated by dinosaurs of vastly different species, they come face-to-face with a sinister, shocking discovery that has been hidden from the world for decades.

Viewer Reviews (TMDb)
_Jurassic World Rebirth_ tries to revive the magic but mostly goes through the motions. The dinosaurs look fine, but the sense of wonder’s long gone. The plot recycles old beats—corporate greed, a betrayal, someone shouting “Run!”—while new characters feel like action figures wit…

Manuel São Bento · 5/10"Jurassic World Rebirth" proves, yet again, how fossilised this franchise has become. The ossification of fresh ideas is glaring, with a tedious, formulaic story, a lack of narrative depth and equally shallow characterisations.Expositions competently done but in isolation, that's…
MovieGuys · 5/10Eh, sure better than the last couple outings but also pretty forgettable. Nice everyone involved, including Scarlett Johansson, director Gareth Edwards and the screenwriter David Koepp, got a paycheck but can't say I'll remember this one come next week. Most positive thing I have…
JPV852 · 5/10Sometimes movies have a way of surprising us in unexpectedly pleasant ways. And this latest installment in the “Jurassic” franchise is just such a case. Admittedly, I had more than a few reservations going into this one; I couldn’t help but think that this was a cinematic commodi…
Brent Marchant · 7/10Well at least there is one scene where huge great dinosaurs walk, accompanied by John Williams’s original theme, to remember - but otherwise this is a really disappointing video-game of a film that offers us nothing at all that the Jurassic franchise hasn’t already. By now, these…
CinemaSerf · 6/1017 years ago, a group of scientists got the bright idea to mutate dinosaurs. One of those mutations was a Distortus Rex, a Tyrannosaur mutation, also known as the D-Rex. Thanks to a Snickers wrapper, the D-Rex escapes, causing the facility to be shut down. In the present day, fiv…
Chris Sawin · 1/10🌟 8/10 – A Thrilling Ride, But Lacking Depth Jurassic World delivers on the action and spectacle, with thrilling dinosaur chases and jaw-dropping visuals that keep you on the edge of your seat. However, it feels more like a reboot than a reinvention, relying heavily on nostalgia…
Jenny · 8/10“Jurassic World Rebirth” swings the franchise back to where it all started, both literally and thematically. Leaning hard into nostalgia, director Gareth Edwards peppers his film with sequences that mirror the most memorable moments from the original “Jurassic Park” so closely yo…
"My review for Jurassic World: Rebirth is ultimately one of disappointment. While the visual effects were commendable and the soundtrack was decent, the film's greatest weakness was its painfully predictable plot; a young child could have easily foreseen most of its developments.…
I do enjoy the interaction between our characters and the dinosaurs, and it's quite fun to watch the drama unfold. I will admit, though, I do enjoy the commradarie and levity in the face of unknown danger and terrifying situations. The Jurassic Universe still knows how to engage…
patient1 · 7/10**_More of the same, just with ScarJo and mutated dinos_** Shot in the summer of 2024, this is the seventh film in the Jurassic Park franchise, which borrows from the iconic first film, but there are also bits reminiscent of the Pteranodon scenes in “Jurassic Park III.” While the…
Wuchak · 6/10What a huge missed opportunity. It’s well known that Hollywood denizens are generally not the sharpest knifes around but it is still a disappointment when they give a fairly high budget movie, and a well known franchise as well, to some low IQ writer hack that just ruins it. The…
Dark Jedi · 4/10"Jurassic World: Rebirth" looks absolutely astonishing. The locations are amazing, the photography is luscious throughout, and it is an ideal slice of exhilarating entertainment which is effortlessly diverting. It borrows like crazy from various other films - it actually begins t…
kevin2019 · 8/10Well the start of the movies was better than the last one! But yikes, relying on the graphics again the story was sadly lacking and to have 2 families that had nothing to do with each other was just another example of how writers have lost the plot in Hollywood lately. The previo…
daniel_carr · 4/10This movie has almost nothing to do with the franchise, You could have just made it it's own movie and it's just that a hidden island lab used to make dinosaurs or something. But more to the point the plot is dumb, they need to get dinosaurs DNA to help... with heart conditions?…
