About this deal

Perhaps that's for the best as we know that this probably isn't the end of the Jurassic saga. We're not even disappointed about that as there are new characters we'd want to see more of, especially Kayla who proves to be a terrific addition to the franchise. Returning director Colin Trevorrow – who also wrote the script with Emily Carmichael – smartly keeps the fan service subtler than expected as well. There are nods throughout and sure to be more found on repeat viewings, but relatively few 'Hey, you remember this moment, right?' beats. Extras: Anamorphic (16:9), Language(s): English, French, German, Italian, Hard of Hearing Subtitles: English, Subtitles: French, German, Italian, Interactive Menu, Screen ratio 1:1.78, Dolby Digital 5.1 While it might make more logical sense, we are talking about a series where Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard) can outrun a raptor. We're happy to have a suspension of disbelief about the Jurassic movies, so a plot about a real-world battle between dinos and humans could have worked – and be more interesting than what Dominion ends up being about. Legacy sequels are all the rage these days, but to be fair to Jurassic World, the series has been doing it since before it was cool.

Yes, we've technically known the original trio for three decades, but we've had three movies with Claire and Owen, and we should care more. Perhaps it's because they never really are in danger, unlike in the original Jurassic Park movie. There's so much plot armour in Dominion that even during an 'Bourne, but with dinos' sequence in Malta, you know that they'll both survive with barely a scratch. Even the script seems to like the legacy characters more as Goldblum gets the best lines, especially when he becomes the comic relief in the final third. It's actually a Jurassic World newbie in DeWanda Wise as Kayla Watts who comes the closest to being as strong as the legacy cast. It's not just the meeting of the two casts that make Jurassic World: Dominion a potentially unique offering either. Set four years after Fallen Kingdom, it opens with the world in an entirely different place after dinosaurs were let loose in the sequel's cliffhanger ending. When Dominion does lean on the past, such as in a recreation of the iconic "don't move" sequence, you remember you're actually watching the culmination of a franchise. There's just nothing particularly surprising about events or a major swing that will be discussed endlessly by fans. It has a sense of finality, but more of an ellipsis than a full stop.

Selected items are only available for delivery via the Royal Mail 48® service and other items are available for delivery using this service for a charge. The movie is split into two strands, with one following Claire and Owen (Chris Pratt) as they try to keep Maisie (Isabella Sermon) safe. In the other, Ellie, Alan and Ian investigate the shady dealings at BioSyn which is now run by another Jurassic Park character, Lewis Dodgson (Campbell Scott, a recast from the original).
