3/10
The female Indiana Jones
20 December 2021
This is a standard template driven type of movie.

1. Innocent "little" creatures 2. Bad, bad man who wants to make money 3. Brave action team to save them

You can apply this to any scenario and with little adjustment it will work.

Leading character was a lipstick driven (Bryce Dallas Howard), which was backed up for everything she could not handle by a macho type Chris Prat. But he could be easily replaced by anyone. The most annoying of the cast was the butch "scientist" Daniella Pineda and the squealing like a girl, data scientist Justice Smith. They are thrown in whirlwind of dinosaurs, lava and good intentions by the filmmakers, while being filmed in the process. Then everything was stitched together by the great gods of CGI (which is the only thing they did good). Everything else is a cliche after cliche, template after template. As if it was made by a 12 year-old AD HD kid. No character development, not much sense in character actions. They tried to use the famous Spielberg wide open eyes close-up, but they did it not for the need of it, but to have something in common with first Jurassic Park movie. And it looks cheesy.
