Patrick Frater Asia Bureau ChiefA powerfully impressive opening by “Jurassic World Dominion” and a partial reopening of cinemas gave China its biggest box office weekend in more than three months. The dinosaur franchise movie earned $53 million (RMB355 million) in three days in China, according to data from consultancy Artisan Gateway. The film chewed off a massive 88% share of the total weekend market.

Angelique Jackson A key element of “Jurassic World Dominion” is Jeff Goldblum’s Dr. Ian Malcolm reunion with the original “Jurassic Park” crew (Laura Dern, Sam Neill and BD Wong), as the quartet share the screen for the first time since 1993.But that plot point isn’t the only “Jurassic” milestone for 2022.

The new movie Jurassic World Dominion is now in theaters and fans will likely be wondering if they should stick around for a post-credits scene after the movie.

Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor“Jurassic World Dominion” roars into theaters this weekend. Set in the present day, not long after the events of “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom,” dinosaurs now co-exist with humans.While dino alums Tyrannosaurus Rex and the venom-spitting Dilophosaurus make their mark, director Colin Trevorrow also brought in bigger, badder and even feathered dinosaurs.

J. Kim Murphy “Jurassic World Dominion” is the new apex predator at the box office.Universal’s dino-sequel is expected to earn $142.6 million from 4,676 theaters across North America over the weekend, which would mark the highest domestic opening for a non-superhero film since COVID-19 lockdowns were first introduced.

While that total is a few steps below the $148 million earned four years ago by “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom,” it has topped “The Batman” for the third highest domestic opening of the COVID era and could still crack $150 million if Saturday matinee turnout exceeds expectations. “Dominion” is also sharing another trait with its “Jurassic World” predecessors: it is proving to be critic-proof.

“Jurassic World Dominion” is upon us.Billed as the last installment in the “Jurassic” “era” (because surely there will be more films), this latest entry in the franchise that began with Steven Spielberg’s masterpiece “Jurassic Park” back in 1993, is bigger and more dinosaur-stuffed than ever. “Jurassic World: Dominion” unites the two halves of the saga, as well – with newer characters like Owen Grady (Chris Pratt) and Claire Dearing (Bryce Dallas Howard) partnering up with legacy characters Alan Grant (Sam Neill), Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) and Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum).

“Jurassic World Dominion,” the latest film in the “Jurassic Park” franchise and the second sequel in the semi-rebooted “Jurassic World” series of films.The franchise’s first film, “Jurassic Park,” was released in 1993 and was directed by Steven Spielberg. A massive box office hit at the time, the film spawned a franchise that includes sequels “The Lost World: Jurassic Park” (1997) and “Jurassic Park III” (2001) and the reboot/sequel “Jurassic World” (2015) and its follow-up “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom” (2018).Director Colin Trevorrow returns to the director’s chair for “Dominion,” which completes the story he began with “Jurassic World.” Find out everything you need to know about where and how to watch “Jurassic World Dominion” below.“Jurassic World Dominion” opens exclusively in theaters Friday, June 10, so the only way to see it opening weekend is in a movie theater.Although no official date has been given regarding “Dominion’s” streaming date, the film is a Universal Pictures release and will almost certainly be streaming on Peacock after a 45-day window of theatrical exclusivity.

“Jurassic World: Dominion,” Neill returns to the franchise as Grant, who along with his old pals Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) and Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum) investigate a mystery connected to the dinosaurs from Jurassic World and team up with the newer group of characters (Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, DeWanda Wise, Mamoudou Athie) to save the dinos and, of course, defeat an evil corporation. You know, typical “Jurassic Park” stuff.TheWrap chatted with Neill about what it was like returning to the franchise, what Judd Apatow’s Netflix movie “The Bubble” got wrong about the “Jurassic World: Dominion” production and whether he’ll make the final cut for “Thor: Love and Thunder.”You haven’t been completely absent from the “Jurassic Park” franchise. You popped up in “Jurassic Park III.” What do you remember from that one?I enjoyed it a lot.

On this episode of the Deep Focus podcast, host and Playlist Editor-In-Chief Rodrigo Perez talks to writer/director Colin Trevorrow & writer Emily Carmichael (“Pacific Rim: Uprising”) about “Jurassic World: Dominion,” which is the sixth and potentially final chapter in the dino-action series that began with Steven Spielberg’s beloved, “Jurassic Park.” “Jurassic World: Dominion” picks up four years after the events of “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom,” in which Isla Nublar was destroyed in a volcanic explosion.

Angelique Jackson “Jurassic World Dominion” features the long-awaited return of Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum and Sam Neill, appearing on screen for the first time together since 1993’s “Jurassic Park,” but there’s another franchise O.G. who’s part of the mix — BD Wong.Wong’s Dr.

It’s been nearly 30 years since a rampaging T-Rex shut down Jurassic Park, and in Jurassic World Dominion (★★☆☆☆), the latest sequel in the rebooted franchise, apparently that same T-Rex is still raising hell. But the mighty Tyrannosaurus is no longer confined to the world’s most uninsurable theme park. At the conclusion of the previous film, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, dozens of dinosaurs were set loose on the U.S.

“Jurassic World Dominion” is that it’s a metaphor unto itself; the ongoing moral of the film series is that mixing the wrong strains of DNA leads to disaster, and that lesson is writ large in the awkward and clumsy attempt to graft the stars of the original “Jurassic Park” onto the “Jurassic World” movies, a combo platter that only serves to make the latter-day protagonists even less interesting by comparison.The other generous read, although it’s damning with faint praise, is to call this the best “Jurassic” movie since the original in 1993, but that doesn’t mean this one’s not, much like its predecessors, a hot mess. It’s just a hot mess with some effectively scary bits, a cool car chase and Laura Dern.“Dominion” spends so much time jumping back and forth between the “Park” cast and the “World” plot that one can only hope editor Mark Sanger (“Gravity”) received combat pay.

Jurassic World Dominion has divided critics in early reactions.Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard are joined by the original Jurassic Park cast in the sequel, including Sam Neill, Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum.Despite this dose of nostalgia, it seems the follow-up to 2018’s Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom hasn’t quite met the rapturous reception it wasn’t hoping for.Scott Menzel from We Live Entertainment, wrote: “It brings me no joy to report that Jurassic World Dominion is a MASSIVE disappointment. While the film does feature some incredible dinosaur sequences and it is great to see the original cast back on the big screen, the film fails to deliver on what the previous films promise.”A similar sentiment was shared by film critic Courtney Howard, who described it as the “worst of the franchise” and that it “ignores the premise it should’ve had from the start”.Some, however were positive towards the sequel.
