Terrible Plan! Movie Reviews

What I liked: I like dinosaurs. I still like dinosaurs after this movie. I like that they specifically introduced dinosaurs with the best people eating potential regardless of plot, biology, or previous story line. I like that the Spinosaurus' nose is the exact right size to snuffle inside a downed airplane in search of juicy people snacks. I like that the Spinosaurus' response to biting an airplane in half is not "that wasn't delicious" but "I wonder if there are tiny bits of delicious inside." I like that the paleontologists had a 3D printed model of a velociraptor nose and that they learned how to play it and that they could play it correctly to communicate with the raptors. When I try speaking another language that, you know is designed for human mouths, it comes out all gibberish. When I try playing any instrument, it comes out sounding like a slide whistle (this could be one of the reasons that I favor the slide whistle). These protagonists success...

What I liked: I loved the sloths. This scene from the trailer is the best stand alone part of the movie, watching the smile slowly creep over the sloth's face is phenomenal and I enjoy it every time. I liked the Godfather. I liked the different environments particularly the tiny rodent land. Especially the hamster tubes. I liked the crazy neighbors. I loved the use of the boot. I liked the radio that only played unhelpful music. I liked that the main character used earbuds in her giant bunny ears. I liked the jokes and plot twists. I saw them all coming (and annoyed the people I was watching with by announcing the what would be happening in the next scene) but as a mark of great execution they were still funny and/or satisfying, which is impressive. I liked that the main characters uses a carrot phone instead of an apple phone. I liked the dancing app and I thought the backup dancers at the end were funny. I was highly entertained by the hippie commune. We have thought along thes...

What I liked: I liked that we got to use the last 20 years to coopt all of the alien technology to advance our own civilization. I like that even though apparently we now have cold fusion driven vehicles and weaponry all of the designs are exactly the same: spaceships? F-15s, helicopters? Helicopters without blades, telephones? Wireless handsets. Why redesign things when you can just pop new technology into the existing chasis? I liked that the hope for the universe is a sphero. I liked that they had a better plan this time: instead of just sending fighters in we will send in fighters AND bombers. Ok, it’s not that much better but at least we’re using more of our resources. I liked that we got to see more of what the rest of the planet was doing about aliens this time (I know it’s Independence day but I feel like other people might have a vested interest) I liked windshield wipers and spaceship stealth. I liked the random boat in the middle of the ocean. I appreciated the crochet, r...
