I don’t think I’d be surprising anyone who knows me by saying that I’m a Jurassic franchise superfan. I’m even someone who enthusiastically enjoyed both of the previous sequels to Jurassic World. But I can agree with everyone that 1993’s Jurassic Park is the high bar of the series,

Summer 2025 has its first hit courtesy of Gareth Edwards, who has filled his Jurassic World: Rebirth with dazzling movie magic that sinks into your heart and reminds you of why we go to the movies.
