New dinosaur movie set for 2025; "Jurassic World: Dominion" a Netflix hit

Some movies can be watched multiple times. These include productions from the "Jurassic Park" and "Jurassic World" series. When these films air on television, they always enjoy great popularity. The same is true on streaming platforms. "Jurassic World: Dominion" has now become a hit on Netflix.

The "Jurassic Park" trilogy was produced from 1993 to 2001. Dinosaur enthusiasts had to wait 14 years for the second series. The first "Jurassic World," released in 2015, was a gigantic success, with box office revenues reaching 1.67 billion dollars. "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom" earned 1.31 billion three years later. "Jurassic World: Dominion" hit theatres in 2022. Even in the challenging post-pandemic period, it grossed over a billion dollars.

As we learned recently, Universal Pictures will not make viewers wait long for the next part of the popular series, which will likely be a new series. A new dinosaur movie will be released in July 2025. Deadline reported that it will be a completely new story with new characters.

Meanwhile, the last film of the second series, "Jurassic World: Dominion," has become a hit on Netflix. It features stars from "Jurassic World" (Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard) as well as from the "Jurassic Park" trilogy (Laura Dern, Sam Neill, and Jeff Goldblum). In Canada, theatrical production goes viral on the platform. It has held second place for several days, losing only to the heavily advertised original Netflix production - "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F," which recorded the best opening performance this year.

Like any dinosaur movie, "Jurassic World: Dominion" is pleasant to watch, although it's hard to disagree with the opinion that the plot is painfully predictable and naive. It is stretched to the limits and elongated endlessly (the film could benefit from being shortened by a good half-hour).

There are also too many "mushrooms in the soup." It has adventure action cinema, blockbuster fare, family drama, naive science fiction, and thriller elements. All of it is served with nostalgia in the spirit of contemporary remakes, where the old crew shares the stage with the young guard and tries to appeal to several generations of viewers.
