The premise makes zero sense. Do you know what would be even better than using a historically uncontrollable wild animal in combat? How about owning a gun? Or a tank? If raptors could be weaponized, why didn't someone just do that with a chimp or a lion? Because it makes zero sense. They would be good for melee combat I suppose, but they'd have to get close enough to avoid guns first. The cost of the dinosaurs at their auctions was also in the 10-30 million+ range. You could literally arm entire armies for those amounts of dollars or buy high end armaments like modern tanks and artillery capable of demolishing city blocks.
Somehow the effects have gotten worse and less believable since the original movie that came out in 1993.
Chris Pratt's special love affair with a raptor can only carry a movie so far.

I actually really enjoyed
Jurassic World, yeah the last 20 min or so were ridiculous and jumped the shark once the raptors started communicating with the Indominus Rex and turned on everybody. But aside from that I thought it was a fun movie.
But yeah
Fallen Kingdom was terrible, I was so disappointed with it. Extremely predictable, super cheesy even for JW standards, and just dumb. I felt JW walked the line between action movie and kids movie, but
Fallen Kingdom just went fully over to being a kids movie. I was so disengaged and bored with it I remember having the urge to walk out of the theatre mid-movie if I was by myself.
Think I'm done with that franchise after
Fallen Kingdom, which is quite the turnaround after enjoying JW.
