This Rotten Week: Predicting Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom Reviews
This summer has already seen the arrival of many major blockbusters, including Avengers: Infinity War, Deadpool 2, Solo: A Star Wars Story, and Incredibles 2, and now the planet is preparing for another round of dinosaur terror. Get ready for a return to dinosaur land in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.
Just remember, I'm not reviewing these movies, but rather predicting where they'll end up on the Tomatometer. Let's take a look at This Rotten Week has to offer.
We were reintroduced to the Jurassic Park franchise a couple years back with Colin Trevorrow's Jurassic World (71%), an entertaining if unspectacular return to dinosaur land, this time with the theme park having turned into an active site. Unfortunately the success also led to the creation of out-of-control monsters, and as a result everything came crashing down. Now we have Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, which finds Owen (Chris Pratt) and Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard) heading back to the island and saving the surviving dinosaurs from a volcano eruption. Love when those stakes keep going up.
Director J.A. Bayona is new to the franchise after helming some smaller budget, but warmly received films like A Monster Calls (86%) and The Impossible (81%). Reviews for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom broke a couple of weeks ago thanks the the film's early international release, and they are generally positive - with the Tomatometer at 60 percent with 100 articles posted. There's enough of a sample size in to assume the score barely shifts over the course of the week, hence my prediction.
It was a very solid week for the Rotten Watch last time around, with two movies falling within range of my prediction, and the other just barely missing. Incredibles 2 (Predicted: 95% Actual: 93%) was a pretty easy call considering Pixar's continued dominance in the world of animation, and the fact that this was a follow up to a fantastic movie. It's score is just a hair lower than the 2004 original, which stands at 97 percent, but with those kinds of numbers its hard to see it as a disapontment.
Meanwhile, Tag (Predicted: 61% Actual: 56%) was nearly right on the nose. I thought the film looked cute and somewhat endearing without being something the critics would be over the moon about. That assessment proved correct, with a slight majority feeling like the absurdity and silliness behind a group of friends playing an infinite game of tag made for just enough laughs. Those who didn't like it just thought the aforementioned absurdity was a little too much.
Superfly (Predicted: 41% Actual: 54%) counts as a miss for me, but I came close to getting my prediction within range. The 54% rating pretty much sums up the critics' thoughts on this one, with only a few extreme takes and most feeling that it's a middle-of-the-road remake. Most agreed the acting performance of Trevor Jackson held up, but the story seems to be the biggest target and a drag on the final score.
Next time around we've got Sicario: Day of the Soldado and Uncle Drew. It's gonna be a Rotten Week!
Fallen Kingdom comes three years after its predecessor, Jurassic World, made an arrival in 2015. The sequel follows Chris Pratt's Owen Grady as he aims to save the remaining dinosaurs on Isla
