It’s the right story idea to round out the series—in the words of Dr. Malcolm, this situation won’t be undone, so humankind must adapt to the new reality. I wish the filmmakers had the confidence to explore that with a much narrower approach. Fewer characters, fewer villains, less global-scale corporate evil. Young Isabella Sermon is excellent, and I’ll always take more Goldblum, especially in this role, but the “blah” feeling people most people got from this came from its attempt to do way more than it needed to.
