It’s been a long time since dinosaur films have felt this frightening or tense. Go to Full Review

On one level, The End of Oak Street is nothing more -- or less -- than a swift, satisfying exercise in fight-or-flight suspense entertainment. It’s an escapist adventure with enjoyably ropy special effects and a nasty visceral kick. Go to Full Review

Mitchell’s self-imposed moderation might not look radical at first. But in a blockbuster landscape like the one we’re in now, thoughtful constraint is welcome and needed. Go to Full Review

It’s the kind of movie that you shout "What?" at the screen every five minutes to, but you never leave your seat. After years of fun-bad draught on the cinema front, we could use more movies like that. Go to Full Review

Linda W 1h Wow, I was super disappointed. Plot was minimal. Acting was really poor. I guess this movie was intended for junior high kids. Skip it. See more ES 3h astart of movie was slow,but the middle and end were much better. See more Jordan 5h Great thriller some funny parts some sad and some scary. See more Cory M 8h Best thing I've seen all year. It was Jumanji meets Poltergeist in a really amped up version of Spielbergian story telling. In case you might be thinking this, none of my friends or I thought of Jurassic Park at all during it it's not a knock off or a Temu version. It's for sure its own movie and had great surprises. See more Spoiler in the review. 23h Fun entertainment with reimagined dinosaurs. The time travel was creative but very loose. People who are dead and conveniently brought back without affecting previous events. See more CODY-KEITH HOMER H 1d This is what Jurassic Park/World should have been. See more Read all reviews
