Again though, the first 2/3rds were awesome.

I get the second part (monster battles) sort of. Although I hold that I don't see why they wouldn't fight, pretty common amongst predators in the animal kingdom, no? The only thing I didn't really like was that the Rex just walked away after. Rex are supposed to be dumb, and therefore it should've just chased the food (people), as it was the way she got it out in the first place.
However, I don't get why you (and others) can get past Raptor squad. People have been using vicious predators as companions since humans existed. And if Raptors are even as intelligent as dogs, they should be able to do that. If they are at dolphin-level intelligence, like they seem to display, even moreso. I thought that scene was going to be super corny too, but I thought they handled it pretty well and them turning on him in favour of the larger alpha made sense and kept it relatively grounded I thought.
For a movie about a dino-theme park, I don't feel like their stretching it too much with that type of stuff. Really, they could have even given the Raptors genes that would make them more docile/trainable and it would have been explained just fine. But I prefer the "relationship" part of it more I think.
