19. Jurassic World

Director: Colin Trevorrow

Release date: June 11, 2015

After the horrific third installment, Jurassic Park franchise fans could be forgiven for thinking Jurassic World might equally disappoint. But the largest grossing film of 2015 does not disappoint, with its four writers ticking all the boxes: dinosaurs, dinosaurs, dinosaurs. And they don’t mess with the formula. Greedy humans messing with nature equals disaster. It’s not hard to understand and rings true 22 years after the original movie. Trevorrow locates the most magical elements of Jurassic Park and delivers a climax that will have kids and their parents cheering alike.
