    I don’t think movies/series like Jurassic XYZ, Fast & Furious, Transformers, etc. exist to please the critics. Of course, movie critics are going to watch and review the summer’s biggest movies (out of love for their job or their job security).

    Having read the article, it seems like the author’s expectation is for critics to have a different (lower?) set of standards for reviewing these movies.

    However, I am sure critics already give the leeway that such movies warrant, and that this movie (and many others like this) just didn’t fare well even for those standards.

      Surprisingly little of that, sadly. Also, subtract a few fatalities because the creature technically isn’t a dinosaur.
