The park’s owned by Masrani Global Corporation. Owen Grady (Chris Pratt), a member of the park’s on-site staff, conducts intense behavioral research on a group of Velociraptors, known as Blue, Charlie, Delta and Echo. At the corporation’s request, the park’s geneticists create a hybrid dinosaur known as Indominus Rex (created from the DNA of Giganotosaurus, Rugops, Majungasaurus, and Carnotaurus) to boost visitor attendance. Claire Dearing (Bryce Dallas Howard) is the park’s operations manager. Her nephews, Zach (Nick Robinson) and Gray (Ty Simpkins), are visiting the island when the hybrid escapes and are caught up in the high voltage action mayhem as the creature goes on a deadly rampage. “Jurassic World” team members embark on a mission to contain the deadly creature.

The majority of the filming in New Orleans took place at Big Easy Studios inside the NASA complex in East New Orleans. A lot of Twitter buzz has plagued the scientific accuracy of “Jurassic World.” While the first “Jurassic Park” was ground breaking by paleontologists depiction of dinosaurs
accurate evolution in line with scientific timing based on current knowledge of dinosaurs as slow and giant lizard-like reptiles. “Jurassic World” is being criticized for purposely ignoring new discoveries and knowledge, with several dinosaur experts calling the film a ‘dumb monster movie’ for failing to include new discoveries about the creatures, such as some dinosaurs being covered with feathers or proto-feathers like the Tyrannosaurus Rex and the velociraptors who held their front limbs.

In response to these criticisms, Trevorrow said that “the film is scientifically ‘inaccurate’ because it is a science-fiction movie and not a documentary.” “Jurassic World” is a visual exciting film showcasing the Tyrannosaurus Rex “Tyrant Lizard” among the largest carnivores to have ever stalked the planet as well as one of the most fearsome dinosaurs. An impactful debut of seagoing lizard called Mosasaurus captures your imagination in the film for his fearsome array of teeth and 60 ft. immense size as part of “Jurassic World’s” aquatic showcase.
