Director Gareth Edwards recruits Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey and Mahershala Ali for his dinosaur tale, which shamelessly borrows from Steven Spielberg’s 1993 hit.

Filmmaker Gareth Edwards visits Colossal Labs, the genetics lab using similar science to the "Jurassic" franchise.

This is all a windup to this: “Jurassic World Rebirth” tries very hard to evoke that same moment of awe. But in the story, the ubiquity of the dinosaurs has left humanity feeling bored and annoyed, cutting the feet out from under those moments. And it’s starting to feel like the movies are getting bored, too.
