What kind of watch this is
Steven Spielberg returns to the island, this time to show what happens when you let the dinosaurs actually live. It is 129 minutes of chaotic energy, anchored by Jeff Goldblum’s Ian Malcolm. The tone is less "wonder" and more "survival," trading the original’s awe for a gritty, high-stakes chase. It plays like a horror film that accidentally got a bigger budget and more teeth.
What the critics said
The verdict was mixed, which is a polite way of saying it was complicated. Rotten Tomatoes rates it 57% as of January 2026, while Metacritic sits at 59. The consensus notes the visual progress but questions the narrative drive. Roger Ebert gave it 2 stars, noting the creatures feel real while the humans remain bound by formula. Gene Siskel agreed, finding it "recycled material" despite the superior effects. Kevin Thomas offered a counterpoint, praising the return of Ian Malcolm. It is a film that proves technology can run ahead of its story, leaving the audience to decide if the spectacle is worth the wait.
How it did with audiences
The budget was $73 million, but the film pulled in $229 million in the United States and $619 million worldwide. That opening weekend of $72.1 million set the bar high, specifically for a Spielberg picture. It held that specific record for a decade before Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull dethroned it in 2008. On TMDB, users rate it 6.6 out of 10.
