Lego Jurassic World: The Indominus Escape (2016) User Reviews

For fans of the LEGO franchises...

[paul_haakonsen · 5/10 · 28 April 2017]

First and foremost, you already know exactly what you are getting when you venture into a Lego project. And on that note, I will say that "LEGO Jurassic World: The Indominus Escape" didn't fail to deliver.

The animation was great, as it always is in LEGO productions. And the art style was good, again as it tends to be in the Lego productions. But while this is good, it is also sort of a hindrance, because LEGO might have settled and nested down in this formula, so there isn't really much Progress or advancement.

"LEGO Jurassic World: The Indominus Escape" is of course intended for a younger audience and for fans of the "LEGO Jurassic World: The Indominus Escape" franchise. And my 7-year old son enjoyed the movie quite a lot. I, however, didn't find it all that impressive; but then again, I have outgrown LEGO decades ago.

This is definitely something that will appeal to the younger audience, especially if they also enjoy the countless LEGO games that are available. It sure did spur on my son's interest in the Jurassic World LEGO toys afterwards.

Personally, I just don't get why they turn already existing movies and such into LEGO versions. But then again, that is of course just a personal matter of opinion.

Fun

This short animation film tells the story of a secret experiment in Jurassic World theme park, where they secretly conduct experiments to make hybrid dinosaurs. A dinosaur goes crazy and starts attacking humans, and the park staff have to wage a battle to stop the dinosaurs from creating havoc.

"LEGO Jurassic World: The Indominus Escape" appears to be rather close to the 2015 film "Jurassic World", as the Lego characters in this film are easily recognisable from the film. This animation offers a lot of fun, jokes and adventure. The hotdog jokes are quite funny, and who would have thought the dinosaur would have a physical reaction after the line of hotdogs? There are quite a few dangerous situations, but not excessively scary for kids. Though the animation is clearly aimed at young children, I thought it was fun to kill time with.

Pretty mediocre from every perspective

"Lego Jurassic World: The Indominus Escape" is a mini-series from 2016 and well the title really explains well what all this is about. It is basically 5 episodes all between 4.5 and 6 minutes, the final one being the longest, and it takes us I would say back into the world of dinosaurs, but no it takes dinosaurs into today's world, that's the correct description. You can watch the entire thing here in under half an hour. And of course it is animated Lego style, which may have been the main reason why I did not enjoy it that much overall. I am just not a fan of this visual aspect in general, also in other well-received projects. So if you like it more than I do and if you like Jurassic Park, the new films rather than the old ones, I mean those starring Parks&Rec's Chris Pratt, then this is for you. I liked him quite a lot on the TV show, but he is really getting overexposed now for quite a while leading 2 big franchises. Anyway, back to this one here, the voice castg isn't too shabby: The likes of BDH, Johnson, Wong and Levi are easily identifiable and have some reccogniton value too. The stories include humans fighting dinosaurs, chasing them, running from them, dressing up as dinosaurs, feeding dinosaurs, performing medical experiments on dinosaurs and a lot more like sitting on the backs of flying dinosaurs etc. And I never felt it was really muich about anything else than the comedy, especially not about drama, maybe a bit more about adventure instead. So yeah, I think you can decide for yourself if you want to check this out. I personally give it a thumbs-down, but this is a very subjective judgment like I explained earlier, voice acting is maybe the stronges suite here and the ending implies that there could be a sequel. Would not be surprising given the recent successful wave of Lego animation style films. That's all folks.

Just play Lego Jurassic World...

[natedeathwing · 4/10 · 12 August 2017]

When an exhibit is ruined due to a pilot that doesn't have a legal license, Claire, the CEO of Jurassic World has to think up a way to fix the park. This then leads to a huge new dinosaur hybrid, the Indominus Rex, to escape and chase and eat either hot-dogs or a hot-dog man? Just another way of saying, "Hot-dogs give dinosaurs stomach aches kids!"

Better than the real movie

[andras-ocskay · 2/10 · 3 August 2018]

Its not lego, just animation. Not too much related with lego. But funny and smart. Beter than the real.

Great for Kids

[nicole52979 · 10/10 · 10 April 2017]

My 6 year old son loves this video. He just told me it is his favorite movie, and since we are neck deep in Pokemon right now, that is saying a lot. It is entertaining, but if you are looking for something realistic, this is not it. I can watch it along side him without being bored, but it is not for me. It's dinosaurs made out of Lego. The comedy is definitely geared for children.

Dumb movie!

[negrajoly · 3/10 · 5 August 2018]

Dumb movie that has NOTHING to do with the original. You make the characters stupid.

Religion sold as science

[ersbel · 25 August 2017]

Harry Potter had a story to tell. This series does not. But it mimics science with religion. And brings the news channels' fear mongering to the small children. Appalling. Sure, the animation is good as usual, but the violence is greater and the script enough problems even for a LEGO TV show.
