I can't ever recall seeing a movie that actively made me feel like a dumbass for choosing to watch it until I watch JWFK. From Chris Pratt waking up after getting shot by a tranquilizer dart powerful enough to take out dinosaurs and just before he got killed by lava, to James Cromwell asking someone to call the police on themselves and getting snuffed-out for asking for such a stupid request, to Ted Levine playing peekaboo with a killing machine of a dinosaur while trying to rip-out its tooth for a necklace, or a cloned person releasing dinosaurs into the fucking wild because they're "real like her."
I'm not mad because the movie was truly awful, I'm mad because people never told me just how bad it was. My brother, who has a very similar taste in movies as I do, didn't tell me until after I had watched it of how much he hated it as well. While it was still in theaters, he said it wasn't great, but left it at that. It wasn't until I watched it on HBO last week that he opened up about how offensively bad it was, but he wasn't the only person who downplayed JWFK dire quality before I watched it. Friends and other family members all said it was bland, but stopped there. Is people downplaying JWFK depressing quality a giant ruse to get other people to suffer as well? I don't know. But do I feel that people are really downplaying its unpleasantness? Yes.
