Cape Town – Chris Pratt and the dinosaurs are back in cinemas this weekend.
Three years after the destruction of the Jurassic World theme park, Owen Grady and Claire Dearing return to the island of Isla Nublar to save the remaining dinosaurs from a volcano that's about to erupt. They soon encounter terrifying new breeds of gigantic dinos while uncovering a conspiracy that threatens the entire planet.
Also showing: Roman Polanski’s film adaption of Delphine de Vigan’s acclaimed French novel.
Here are the two new films releasing in SA cinemas today:
Movie: Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
Our rating: 3/5
Short review: Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom brings very little variation to the Jurassic franchise except for a few minor tweaks and changes – but it’s still fun to watch.
Movie: Based On a True Story
Our rating: 2/5
Short review: Based On a True Story is a confused, sluggish mess of a thriller-art-film mashup that should never have left the pages of the novel on which it is based
