The latest chapter in the Jurassic Park saga, Jurassic World Rebirth, hit theaters on July 2, 2025, and it’s making waves worldwide! Directed by Gareth Edwards and starring Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, and Mahershala Ali, this action-packed sci-fi adventure is the seventh film in the beloved franchise. Set five years after Jurassic World Dominion, it brings a fresh story, jaw-dropping dinosaur action, and a mix of cheers and critiques from fans and critics alike. Here’s a simple, exciting rundown of what’s happening with Jurassic World Rebirth as of July 5, 2025!
A Brand-New Dino Adventure
Jurassic World Rebirth takes us to a world where dinosaurs are struggling to survive. Most live in remote tropical areas because Earth’s environment isn’t kind to them anymore. The story follows Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson), a tough covert operations expert, who leads a team on a secret mission to collect DNA from the planet’s three biggest dinosaurs. But things get wild when their mission crashes into a family whose boat is attacked by giant sea dinosaurs, like the massive Mosasaurus and three sail-backed Spinosauruses! Stranded on a mysterious island hiding a shocking secret, they face danger, new dinosaur hybrids, and heart-pounding surprises.
Box Office Boom!
The movie is off to a roaring start! It crossed $100 million globally by its second day, with $26 million from 38 international markets on opening day alone. Experts predict it could hit $260 million worldwide over the July 4th holiday weekend, boosted by the long holiday in the U.S., where it’s expected to earn $120-$130 million. In India, it made a solid Rs 9 crore (about $1.1 million) on its first day, especially in 3D and MX4D showings, though it’s facing tough competition for screens from local films like F1 and Sitaare Zameen Par. Fans are excited, and the film’s off to a strong start
Critics and Fans: A Mixed Bag
The movie’s getting all kinds of reactions. Some love it, calling it a “roaring triumph” that brings back the magic of the original 1993 Jurassic Park. The Guardian praises its Spielberg-style action scenes, like dinosaurs chasing boats, and the chemistry between Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey, who play a covert operative and a paleontologist. Others, like IGN, say it feels too safe and forgets the dinosaurs are the real stars, missing the wonder of earlier films. Critics agree the special effects, especially the terrifying D-rex and Mosasaurus scenes, are top-notch, but some feel the characters aren’t deep enough. Still, posts on X show fans are split—some call it a “perfect entry,” while others find it “blah.”
A Nod to the Past, A Step Forward
Director Gareth Edwards, known for Godzilla, brings a creepy, almost horror-like vibe to the film’s opening, with a score that feels like a classic monster movie. Screenwriter David Koepp, who wrote the original Jurassic Park, returns to give Rebirth a back-to-basics feel, focusing on suspense and real-looking dinosaurs. The movie uses real locations and practical effects to make the dinosaurs feel alive, like a whale-watching trip gone wrong! There’s even a nod to Jaws in the water scenes. But some critics say it leans too heavily on old ideas and doesn’t take enough risks, even if it’s more fun than the last trilogy’s Dominion.
India’s Big Moment
India’s love for Jurassic Park runs deep, and Rebirth is keeping that alive with a special Hindi premiere on July 3 at Jaipur’s iconic Raj Mandir Cinema. The film continues the legacy of the 1994 Jurassic Park, the first Hollywood movie dubbed in Hindi. Dubbing legend Ashim Samanta returned to make the Hindi version feel nostalgic yet fresh for new fans. However, the movie’s struggling to get IMAX screens and advance bookings in India due to competition from local films, which might slow its box office run. Still, the excitement is huge, and Indian fans are packing theaters
Why It’s a Big Deal
Jurassic World Rebirth is a thrilling mix of old-school Jurassic Park magic and new ideas. It asks big questions about humans playing with nature, with dinosaurs fighting to survive in a tough world. The stellar cast, epic dinosaur battles, and a secret island full of surprises make it a must-see. While some wish for more dinosaur wonder or deeper characters, the movie’s action and visuals are winning crowds over. With a massive global opening and buzz on X, Rebirth proves the Jurassic franchise is still a monster hit. Will it be the last roar, or just the start of a new era? Grab your popcorn and find out
