Why is it hated so much?

Can anyone list why this movie is terrible. I don't think it's the greatest but I fail to see why it's awful. I just watched Jurassic World it was bad, probably the worst of them all. Yet people are saying it's better than this one, and some are saying it's the best sequel. That movie was really dumb. From beginning to finish, nothing great about it. Not the cgi, or the story, or the main dinosaur, or the kids, the fight sequence, it felt very childish. Meaning like a kid made a story about dinosaurs after watching the original. The only watchable thing on screen was Chris Pratt. Other than that it was pretty dull, and lifeless, I kept waiting for it to get good.

The reason people hate this movie so much is simply because it's another sequel. that's it. It's not as memorable and original as the first film (because it's a sequel) so people automatically hate it just out of habit.

This is a great horror movie with thrilling action sequences. The only reason this is hated is it was a Jurassic Park movie. If it was called Dinosaur Island it would have been seen as an excellent knockoff.

I hated the Kirby's most of all. They were awful characters. Remove them and the film goes up a full letter grade

It’s a heck of a lot more entertaining than most movies I’ve seen.

One long scene with minor interruptions by Dr. Grant quipping off a thousand sanctimonious platitudes? That's my guess.

Royal yawn-fest.

It's been done before in Aliens. That's what it reminded me of. I hate to say it, but everyone would've been dead from the Raptors. They must've been hungry. Just because you blow a sound from a 3D printed larynx doesn't save you. Jurassic Park 2 was more believable.

I just hate the first act and the Kirbys are some of the worst characters in the series and some scenes feel corny.The 2nd and 3rd act are entertaining. I wish they stuck with the original idea for this movie
