Plot Overview – A New Era Begins
Set five years after the events of Jurassic World Dominion, Rebirth follows Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson) and Dr. Henry Loomis (Jonathan Bailey) as they’re sent on a pharmaceutical expedition to a remote island teeming with genetically modified dinosaurs. Their goal: extract dinosaur DNA to create groundbreaking medicines.
But things spiral out of control when they encounter a stranded family, corporate betrayal, and apex predators in hiding. The story blends classic Jurassic horror with a survival-adventure thriller that keeps you tense and guessing.
Direction & Cinematography – Spectacle Meets Substance
Gareth Edwards delivers visual mastery. From fog-drenched jungles to claustrophobic lab interiors and sweeping drone shots of prehistoric beasts roaming wild, every frame feels cinematic.
The dinosaur sequences are tightly shot, relying on a mix of practical effects and top-tier CGI, making the creatures feel terrifyingly real. The action is measured—not chaotic—and when it hits, it hits hard.
Themes – The Cost of Playing God
Unlike earlier Jurassic films that leaned heavily into spectacle, Rebirth brings themes front and center: corporate greed, pharmaceutical ethics, scientific overreach, and nature’s retaliation.
It questions how far humanity will go in its obsession with control, and whether evolution—natural or engineered—should be tampered with. It’s Jurassic with a moral conscience, and it mostly works.
Performances – Strong, But Not Always Balanced
- Scarlett Johansson brings weight to the film as Zora—tough, layered, and haunted.
- Jonathan Bailey steals scenes with charm and intelligence as Dr. Loomis.
- Mahershala Ali plays a morally complex antagonist, though he deserved more screen time.
- Rupert Friend and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo add tension but lack deeper arcs.
While the cast is excellent on paper, a few supporting characters feel underdeveloped—possibly due to the film’s tight pacing.
Dinosaur Moments – Fear, Thrill, and Awe
Yes, the dinosaurs deliver.
From a jaw-dropping underwater Mosasaur attack, to a terrifying Velociraptor ambush at night, and a T-Rex vs. Quetzalcoatlus aerial showdown, Rebirth is filled with standout moments.
One emotional highlight involves a young Ankylosaurus protecting a child, flipping the usual predator-prey dynamic. These aren’t just monster scenes—they carry meaning.
Final Verdict – Not Perfect, But Still Worth the Ride
Rating: 7.4/10
Jurassic World: Rebirth doesn’t reinvent the franchise, but it revitalizes it. It’s visually stunning, morally compelling, and filled with enough dino-thrills to keep you locked in. Weak side characters and predictable turns hold it back from greatness, but it’s still the most grounded and focused Jurassic film in years.
Jurassic World: Rebirth may not be the ultimate evolution of the franchise, but it roars loud enough to remind us why we fell in love with dinosaurs in the first place.
Still, it’s an entertaining ride that deserves to be seen on the big screen.
