This is the 4th episode in the Jurassic Park series about dinosaurs. Jurassic World is set more than 20 years after the events of Jurassic Park (1993). Isla Nublar - an island off the Pacific coast of Central America - is now a real dinosaur world. This park is owned and operated by the global corporation Masrani. Geneticists here were asked to create a hybrid dinosaur with a mutated genetic structure, called Indominus Rex, with the aim of increasing its appeal to tourists.
But that action puts everyone, including two teenagers Zach and Gray - grandchildren of CEO Claire Dearing (Bryce Dallas Howard) - at risk of becoming prey to the beast. All hope for the survival of the island and the people on it rests on the shoulders of her and her partner - dinosaur trainer Owen Grady (played by Chris Pratt). The story revolves around the chases of the dinosaurs and Grady's tireless efforts to save the lives of Zach, Gray and everyone around.
According to experts, the two factors that brought unexpected success to Jurassic World were special effects technology and the cast. 20 years ago, when the first episode came to the audience, because of many difficulties in creating the dinosaur image, the total time with dinosaur images was only 14 minutes, and only 4 minutes of which were processed by computer graphics, so the impression of dinosaurs was still very faint in the hearts of viewers. However, 20 years later, computer graphics technology has advanced significantly, filmmakers have used advanced technology - Animatronic, allowing the construction of electronically controlled dinosaur robots. The robots imitating dinosaurs on set were recorded and their images were further processed on the computer. Every small and sophisticated gesture of the dinosaurs in the new film is soft, realistic and vivid. The 3D images in the movie recreate dinosaurs with light rays, in which people can walk through. The dinosaur actions are so realistic that viewers will shudder in fear.
The remaining factor lies in the cast, the cast in the film brings a fresh and youthful atmosphere. Unlike the dusty stars in the old episodes, actor Chris Pratt has a more stylish appearance. Compared to last year's blockbuster Guardians of Galaxy, the character of trainer Chris Pratt in this film has the appearance of a serious hero in Western cowboy movies. The dinosaur trainer who used to be a soldier looks both strong and innocent, vulnerable. Besides that, there is the presence of Bryce Dallas Howard as the cold, determined female lead.
The father of the series - Steven Spielberg - shared before the new film's release: "After two decades, no matter how much technology changes, the art of storytelling never loses its power." As he said, Jurassic World attracts viewers in the way of a Hollywood blockbuster. Jurassic World will be a great choice for audiences on weekends, to enjoy interesting moments with family and friends.
The film was released in Vietnam on June 12, 2015.
