Jurassic World Rebirth: Is Spielberg’s Vision Finally Back After Three Disappointments?

Based on the latest trailer, I’m quite certain that “Jurassic World Rebirth” will revive the enchantment of the initial film. Despite the fact that the original “Jurassic Park” was released a long time ago in 1993, it remains unquestionably the best film in the series for many. Some even regard Steven Spielberg’s movie as one of the greatest blockbusters ever made. Consequently, it’s highly improbable that any film in the “Jurassic World” series will outshine the original. Nevertheless, compared to the recent installments in the series, the upcoming “Jurassic World Rebirth” appears exceptional.

As a film enthusiast, I eagerly anticipate the release of “Jurassic World Rebirth,” a new chapter in the iconic franchise that promises to usher in a fresh era. With Universal reportedly pulling out all the stops to make it the best installment in years, I can’t help but feel optimistic. The star-studded cast, which includes Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, Mahershala Ali, and Rupert Friend, is certainly a promising start. Moreover, Gareth Edwards, who has demonstrated his knack for blockbuster filmmaking, directs the film, while David Koepp, the writer behind the original “Jurassic Park,” contributes to the screenplay. So, it’s reasonable to expect that “Jurassic World Rebirth” will rekindle the enchantment of Spielberg’s original masterpiece.

Jurassic World Rebirth Has The Horror & Wonder Of Spielberg’s Jurassic Park

Spielberg’s Jurassic Park Was A Triumph

The 1993 film, Spielberg’s Jurassic Park, stood out because it skillfully balanced the sense of awe and fear evoked by the dinosaurs. On one hand, scenes like the brachiosaurus strolling through the meadow were breathtaking, offering an amazing spectacle that was quite extraordinary in 1993 due to limited use of CGI technology. Yet, on the other side, numerous sequences within Jurassic Park effectively demonstrated the terrifying and lethal nature of dinosaurs, serving as a stark reminder of the risks associated with mankind attempting to play God.

From the previews, it’s evident that Jurassic World Rebirth could be one of the most terrifying films in the series. The T-rex swimming scene, the mosasaurus boat encounter, and the introduction of a new mutant dinosaur called the D-rex imply that this movie might be as frightening as the original Jurassic World was. However, there’s also an underlying sense of awe similar to the tone of the first film. In certain trailer frames, we can see a genuine fascination and wonder towards the dinosaurs, which seemed absent in previous Jurassic World installments.

Rebirth Feels More Like Jurassic Park Than A Jurassic World Movie

Rebirth Isn’t Repeating The Mistakes Of The Other Jurassic World Movies

It’s worth mentioning that it’s challenging to predict if the upcoming movie, “Jurassic World Rebirth,” will rekindle the enchantment of the initial film based on a few trailers alone. Nevertheless, the trailer suggests that this film appears to be more reminiscent of the original “Jurassic Park” than any previous “Jurassic World” movies. This alignment is plausible given that Koepp was enlisted to pen the script for “Jurassic World Rebirth.” In contrast to the expansive and ambitious nature of the past “Jurassic World” films, “Jurassic World Rebirth” seems to be shaping up as a more focused and immersive production.

Every Jurassic Park/World Movie RT Critics Score

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018) 47%
Jurassic World Dominion (2022) 29%

It’s clear from the new title, Jurassic World Rebirth, that the original movies aimed to portray dinosaurs as part of our world. Unfortunately, they didn’t quite live up to fans’ initial expectations in terms of realism and awe. However, I’m excited that Jurassic World Rebirth will focus on most dinosaurs living on islands instead of wandering freely across the globe. By centering the story on one island and highlighting the dangers these creatures pose, perhaps Jurassic World Rebirth can bring the franchise back to its former glory.

Despite This, Jurassic World Rebirth Doesn’t Look Like It’s Too Nostalgic

Jurassic World Rebirth Seems Like It Will Perfectly Blend Old & New

It’s important to note that the river attack scene featuring the T-rex in the film Jurassic World: Dominion, although new to this movie, was originally written for the Jurassic Park novel and left out of the first film. This inclusion in the latest installment hints at a similar atmosphere and aesthetic as the original. However, it appears that Jurassic World: Dominion isn’t overly reliant on nostalgia, which is a positive aspect.

It’s clear that the upcoming film, “Jurassic World Rebirth”, will lean heavily on nostalgia due to the legendary status of the first movie. However, it appears to have its own unique spin and aim to craft a fresh narrative within the franchise. Unlike the previous Jurassic World films, which seemed overly reliant on viewers’ nostalgia but failed to rekindle the enchantment of the original, “Jurassic World Rebirth” might be the best film in the series since the original, generating much anticipation for its release.
