How depressing is it that no other dinosaur film has managed to top JP?

Really, the only significant criticism you can stick to this film is that it wasn't as strongly mature and/or dark as the novel it was based on.

Otherwise...it hits all the right buttons with the id (tense action scenes), ego (Doctors Grant and Sattler), and super-ego (Doctor Malcolm).

It's more depressing that no one is willing to put into the work, even Jurassic World, they did. If people used practical effects, we'd have better movies across genres. A few years ago, I watched The Great Gatsby and got a headache from all the CGI.
