BRIAN VINER reviews Jurassic World: Rebirth: Snap and bite as the T-Rex ROARS again!
The rampaging dinosaurs are back, which hasn't always been a reason to hurry to the cinema.
Every government has slapped a veto on people going there, but that doesn’t stop the creepy boss of a pharmaceutical firm, Martin Krebs (Rupert Friend), from plotting an illegal mission to extract blood and tissue samples from the biggest reptiles. Joining her are Mahershala Ali as Duncan Kincaid, the noble captain of the boat that will get them there, and Jonathan Bailey as the trip’s obligatory nerdy-yet-dishy palaeontologist, the bespectacled Dr Henry Loomis, whose sexual chemistry with Zora is less a sub-plot than a tease. Alas, The Shrouds soon shakes off any humour, becoming madly convoluted as industrial sabotage, a digital avatar called Hunny, a paranoid ex brother-in-law (Guy Pearce) and Karsh’s dead wife’s libidinous sister Terry (also Kruger) collide in an increasingly bonkers plot that will appeal to Cronenberg fans but by no means everyone else.
