Intro:
Jurassic World: Rebirth roars back into theatres five years after Jurassic World: Dominion with a new star cast led by Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, Jonathan Bailey, Rupert Friend, and Ed Skrein. Directed by Gareth Edwards—best known for Rogue One and Godzilla—this installment attempts to push the franchise forward visually, even if the storyline often falls into old patterns.
Plot:
Set in a future where dinosaurs now roam equatorial zones—the last climate zones where they can survive—the story follows Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson), a covert ops expert, hired for a top-secret mission: extract DNA from three of the largest dinosaurs alive. But when the mission crosses paths with a stranded civilian family and rival players with conflicting agendas—including military contractor Duncan Kincaid (Mahershala Ali), paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis (Jonathan Bailey), and shady corporate executive Martin Krebs (Rupert Friend)—survival becomes the real mission.
As secrets unravel and alliances shift, Zora and her team must navigate both prehistoric predators and human betrayals in a world where danger lurks above and below the surface—especially in one thrilling sequence where rising floodwaters trap Zora and Duncan with hungry aquatic dinosaurs.
Performance & Direction:
Scarlett Johansson is rock-solid as the tough-as-nails Zora, blending action-hero grit with emotional grounding. Mahershala Ali brings weight and intensity to the morally complex Duncan, while Jonathan Bailey adds scientific charm without falling into nerdy stereotypes. Rupert Friend is effectively menacing as the corporate antagonist.
Director Gareth Edwards leans heavily into atmosphere and scale. The dinosaurs look fantastic, the environments are richly immersive, and the tension in the film’s set pieces—especially underwater—feels genuinely high-stakes.
What Works:
Visually stunning dinosaur sequences
Strong lead performances, especially from Johansson and Ali
High-octane survival scenes
Gareth Edwards’ signature visual style
What Doesn’t:
Predictable plot beats that echo earlier Jurassic films
Thin character arcs for supporting roles
Corporate-greed-as-the-villain trope feels overused
Limited emotional depth despite potential
Final Words:
Jurassic World: Rebirth doesn’t break new ground narratively, but it thrives on adrenaline, top-tier visuals, and a committed cast. If you’re a fan of the franchise, there’s enough prehistoric punch here to keep you hooked. Just don’t expect a revolutionary reboot—it’s more evolution than reinvention.
