Other than the fact I thought the dinos looked pretty good (apparently, I don't see so well), we're right in sync. This was soooooo dumb I'm willing to believe it was a conspiracy by the park employees to screw this place up intentionally.

I had a feeling when this movie was first announced that it was going to turn out bad, I mean come on just look at how bad Jurassic Park III was 14 years ago.
