  • Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom

    Movie Review | Ali Gray | 10th June 2018

    I am a Jurassic Park sequel apologist. I am a Jurassic sequapologist. There’s no shame in loving the original movie, obviously, and I maintain that Jurassic World was an unapologetic, fan-pleasing blockbuster that wanted to reach even farther than Michael Crichton’s visionary thinking. But the sequels? I am at war with myself. The Lost World sort of has some good bits? The birdcage bit in Jurassic Park III was cool, I guess? Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, sadly, is a different beast entirely: it is the first Jurassic movie I haven’t enjoyed unreservedly from the get-go. With the other duffers I’d eventually pick up on the flaws after multiple rewatches - this is the only Jurassic Park movie I’ll have to learn to love.

    Movie Review | Ali | 25th September 2011

    And so, Jurassic Park week, the special event that was 65 million and 18 years in the making, comes to an end. We've laughed, we've cried, we've freaked out a little bit when Sam Neill tweeted his approval... Truly, there's nothing left to say about Jurassic Park that hasn't been said this w- Shit! The review!

  • Jurassic Park Week: Why I love Ian Malcolm, chaos nerd

    Movie Feature | Ali | 21st September 2011

    My favourite character from Jurassic Park is Ian Malcolm, the 'rogue element' and charismatic doombringer who correctly predicts that opening a theme park based around extinct animals isn't likely to pass health and safety regulations. I originally wrote this ode to Ian Malcolm in 2005, but republish it as part of Jurassic Park Week.
