Speaking on behalf of dog people in the community, the newly reopened and refurbished White Rock Dog Park rocks! If you were driving down East Mockingbird last Saturday, you must have noticed an onslaught of parked cars on the northwest shore of the lake. Dogs and puppies were jumping out excitedly taking their persons by the leash to their fancy new favorite digs — their “go for a ride in the car” destination … and quickly abandoning their leashes once inside the fence.

June 6 was the longawaited re-opening of White Rock Dog Park, and both four-legged and two-legged visitors were beyond ecstatic to return to their favorite offleash park. It turned out to be the clear, sunny day you would

Echo has more than ‘Precious Little’ to say

By Shari Goldstein Stern Echo Theatre’s current show, “Precious Little” is not your hot summer pick-meup. Know that going in. The Bath House Cultural Center’s offering requires some serious thought, reflection and imagination. Its lead character, Brodie is a linguist, played by the only actress of the three-person cast, who plays the same character throughout the show. She is Sherry Jo Ward, who delivers an emotional rollercoaster of a performance. While a seriousminded scientist, Brodie finds herself vulnerable as the artificially inseminated, pregnant partner of a lesbian couple. A routine amniocentesis reveals a high risk, genetic birth defect is present, leaving tough questions to answer and decisions to make … or not.

As a linguist, one of Brodie’s clients is a woman from another country with a unique, vanishing language.

Brodie’s project is to learn about the rare language from her, which becomes a challenge when the woman’s

Lisa Fairchild plays cast “A,” which includes a couple of “costume changes.” All of the changes are made onstage, with the stage lights dimmed.

As little as a scarf or sweater differentiates the characters.

Fairchild is an experienced

actor with local credits at theaters including Theatre Three; Dallas Children’s Theatre; WaterTower; Contemporary Theatre of Dallas and several others. Besides area theater, her credits include voice-over, film, radio, theater, commercial and industrial. She directs and casts in addition to acting.

Fairchild’s broad range of characters in the show stretch from an elderly woman, who speaks a vanishing language to an ape and others in between. She does each justice.

As “B,” Molly Welch’s roles include Brodie’s lesbian lover. The two do have a graphic love scene, albeit fully clothed. And then, she’s the uncooperative daughter of “A” and a counselor in a genetics clinic. In both roles, she’s extremely skilled at making you hate her in her first few lines.

The sets are simple and multitask-worthy as they morph from an office to a lab to a sound booth and a zoo enclosure. The cast and crew change them out quickly without drawing attention.

Sherry Jo Ward brings a unique dimension to the role. In February of 2015, the 42-year-old was diagnosed with “Stiff-Person syndrome (SPS),” a disorder so rare that an estimated one in a million in the country people are afflicted. From

FATHERS' DAY

A salute to Fathers

By Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson When I was growing up my late father Edward Johnson was deeply proud of me, my two sisters and my brother. He encouraged us to excel in school, to read books, to attend church and to prepare for our futures.

He was always there for us, during times of great joy and sadness.

Like my father, most fathers want the very best for their children. They want them to have a better quality of life than they experienced, and they do all that they can to ensure that their children begin life with a solid foundation.

Fathers have always worked very hard to provide their families with the basic necessities of life. Often, some have worked more than one job to pay the bills and to purchase those items that their children said that

they had to have. Fathers have been anchors in the lives of their children.

Once each year in this country we take time to say a very special “thank you” to our fathers if they are still living and to remember those who are no longer with us. Ties, socks, wallets, suits, shoes and other items are purchased and given as gifts. Special messages of appreciation and reflection are written inside of Father’s Day cards.

Being a father is very special, and the day to salute all of those who have stood tall and strong is celebrated this year on June 21. The first Father’s Day was held on June 19 in 1910. It came two years after the first Mother’s Day celebration.

In 1966, former President Lyndon Baines Johnson issued a presidential proclamation that officially designated the third Sunday in June as Father’s Day. Six

years later, former President Richard M. Nixon signed legislation acknowledging Father’s Day as an official U.S. holiday.

I would like to salute every father in the 30th Congressional District, and fathers everywhere who have nurtured and guided their children through good times and bad. I applaud them for loving their children, for protecting them and for insisting that they pursue excellence as students and greatness as human beings.

I salute all fathers for the sacrifices that they have made, for the encouragement that they have given, for the prayers that they have uttered and for the examples that they have set.

All that they have done has been helpful to their children, and for that their children will remain eternally grateful. Have a blessed Father’s Day.

TCA names new president

By Becky Mayad Turtle Creek Association (TCA), known for its efforts to preserve Turtle Creek’s aesthetic beauty and promote strategic business growth in the surrounding corridor, has tapped Jennifer Shultz as its new president.

Shultz assumes her duties immediately.

“Jennifer delivers a powerful combination of skills and talents to Turtle Creek Association. Her fundraising and management capabilities, along with strong communication and organizational skills, will be a tremendous asset to Turtle Creek Association,” said TCA chair Kim Askew.

“We look to her expertise as we develop the Turtle Creek area to its fullest potential and elevate the exposure this crown jewel so greatly deserves.”

Shultz brings a deep knowledge of fundraising and extensive expertise in project management to the position.

Most recently she served as chief development officer for The Foundation for the Education of Young Women (which has since been

renamed the Young Women's Preparatory Network), located in Dallas. Prior to that position, she was the executive director of prospect development at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem.

Additionally, the SMU graduate served in a number of positions at her alma mater, from assistant director of development to director of prospect management.

She also boasts more than a decade of business experience. Her role as a “resolver” at Celanese in Dallas sharpened her troubleshooting talents. She worked in product management and development for Verizon Select Services and as a retail market specialist for Verizon Business E-Commerce.

Shultz’s educational background includes a bachelor of arts degree from Austin College with a double major in business administration and communication arts, along with a master of liberal arts degree in gender studies from SMU. “It's an exciting time to join the Turtle Creek Association as the area continues to thrive, and I look forward to the opportunity

and challenges that lie ahead,” said Shultz said. “The TCA board has worked tirelessly, and I am eager to team up with them to enhance the Turtle Creek area for everyone in Dallas to enjoy.”

With a mission to preserve, protect and promote the Turtle Creek Corridor, the nonprofit focuses on several key areas – beautification, restoration, preservation and recreation. Among its many accomplishments, Turtle Creek Association has developed the engineering plan for creek-bank stabilization, provided seasonal color throughout the Turtle Creek Corridor, maintained the median landscape and irrigation in the area, provided regular creek cleaning by teams of loyal volunteers and preserved more than 2,600 trees that provide a habitat for wildlife and urban sustainability.

Turtle Creek Association is a nonprofit association dedicated to preserving the aesthetic beauty of Turtle Creek and promoting the strategic development of the surrounding corridor, which includes 87 acres of green space.

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

French Fries about 'Freedom and liberty'

By Nancy Black I’m old enough to remember when ketchup was declared a “vegetable” by the United States Department of Agriculture and President Ronald Reagan’s administration. I was, Nancy Black of course, thrilled, because it meant I could put ketchup on my mystery meat hamburger, which made it much easier to swallow.

But the times, and eating habits, are different now in the 21st century. It’s all about healthy eating, locally grown food and community gardens. And I am proud to be on that growing bandwagon.

Especially considering I grew up eating McDonald’s hamburgers with ketchup only, French fries and a Dr Pepper at least two times a week.

Now, Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller wants to turn back the clock.

Just when school children in Texas were beginning to embrace a new way of eating at school and in their homes, he wants to make it OK for school cafeterias to sell sodas and French fries again.

The man obviously does not have school-aged children.

Because no parent in their

right mind would want their child to have access to sugary sodas. Those poor teachers.

It’s hard enough to control 30 students in the overpacked classrooms of most Texas schools. Add caffeine and sugar to the mix? If you ask me, that is not conducive to a healthy learning environment.

And certainly not one I would want to submit my child or any teacher to.

Little claims schools do not have to sell French fries and sodas but, if they want to, they

can.

“The school districts that disagree with my decision, I just have to say, ‘Don’t get a deep fryer!’” Miller said.

“Don’t let the room mothers bring cupcakes to school.

That’s your decision, I’ll support you on that. That’s what this is all about. It’s not about cupcakes. It’s about freedom and liberty.”

I’m all for freedom and liberty. But I’d rather have my children learning French at school than eating fries.

MULL IT OVER

Getting a Charge out of game

By David Mullen It was like any other professional sporting event in Dallas/Fort Worth.

Well, sort of.

Arriving at the stadium, I was given a free promotional item (plastic lei for Hawaiian night), bought a program, was encouraged to buy a tshirt or hat and was greeted by the team mascot. The PA announcer introduced the teams. Thirteen year old Emma Young of Sanger belted out the national anthem. A local celebrity threw out the first pitch — a pregnant Megan Denny White of Crowley — that starred at the University of Texas at Austin.

There was plenty of music and a dot race in the outfield, although the costumes looked slightly homemade.

Welcome to Dallas’ new professional sports team: the Dallas Charge of the National Pro Fastpitch (NPF) league. Women’s pro fastpitch softball has come to the metroplex.

“The league is comprised of many of the best players on the planet,” general manager of the Charge Kevin Shelton said. “It is a family friendlyenvironment and a familyfriendly game. It is a fast game. It is a fun game. Those are the pieces we are trying to leverage. We are a new company. We have been in business 23 weeks.”

Although their home park is Dallas Charge Field at The Ballfields at Craig Ranch in McKinney, Friday’s game was one of two home games played at the new Allan Saxe Field at the University of Texas at Arlington.

The Charge faced the (Washington) PA Rebellion.

ECHO cont'd from page 1 the audience’s point of view, unbeknownst to them, the disorder enriched her character, like adding another layer.

Ward spoke candidly with us about her condition and its challenges.

According to Johns Hopkins Neurology and Neurosurgery, “Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) is a rare disease of the nervous system.

Progressively severe muscle stiffness typically develops in the spine and lower extremities; often beginning very subtly during a period of emotional stress. Most patients experience painful episodic muscle spasms that are triggered by sudden stimuli.

An auto-immune component is typical and patients often have other auto-immune disorders. Symptoms usually begin in the mid-forties.”

A diagnosis is made with a blood test that measures the level of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) antibodies in the blood. People with SPS have elevated levels of GAD, an antibody that works against an enzyme involved in the synthesis of an important neurotransmitter in the

brain. There is no cure for SPS at this time. “[Stiff Person Syndrome] changed my life. Every day is a little different. I never know how it’s going to be any day.

I have to see with that first step how the day will be,” the actress shared.

Ward and her husband, Thomas Ward, who is also an actor performed in Stage West’s production of “International Falls” in March, in which she had been cast shortly before her diagnosis.

She was reluctant to audition for the Echo Theatre role, not being certain how the disorder would continue to progress.

“It’s changed the way all my muscles work. It’s like a new body,” she explained, and then she quipped, “But I’m not going to go out and get tattooed and dye my hair.”

She said SPS has drastically affected her mobility and is very painful. Physical therapy is ongoing. While the syndrome is not terminal, it is progressive.

“We just monitor and see what’s happening,” Ward said. “It is so rare that my neurologist has only had one other patient in his career. I haven’t found anyone else locally. It’s like an involuntary,

very exclusive club.”

The Wards have two sons, 6 and 10 years old. The mom said: “It’s been interesting to mother [with SPS].

While one is in tune to the kind of day his mom is having, the other is more aware of the way it’s changed how I move around. Of course there have been the questions, like ‘Are you going to die?’ and ‘Can I get it?’”

“We’re getting used to it. We try to maintain some sense of normalcy. It’s a new normal,” she said. She has a sister and mother-in-law nearby who can help her out.

“It’s just an adjustment.

It’s hard to accept the permanence of it. When my friends see me they ask if I’m feeling better than yesterday. It’s like going through the stages of grief,” she explained.

While Ward was aware of some odd symptoms for several months — aches and muscle pains — she didn’t feel cause to worry. Then she started getting tremors.

“Within a week, things completely changed. I didn’t know what was going on. I saw three neurologists before I had a diagnosis,” she said. “It was a relief to have the diagnosis.” It can take an average

Your Stars this Week

by Stella Wilder

The coming week will see a certain type of individual forced to face issues that have been tucked away for quite some time -- and why?

Because they are in some way fearful of them or otherwise unwilling to face what those issues imply. This is a good week for such people to realize that everyone, at some point or other, must do what they are being called upon to do: to think the unthinkable, do the undoable and learn the unknowable. Indeed, there is something for everyone to learn, but those who have been hiding from such lessons will have the hardest time of it. At the same time, they can make the most pronounced progress because of it.

Personal issues may become heated. Honest talk with family members about hot topics may be difficult to get started, and once it does, it may be difficult for everyone to keep the emotional current from running too swiftly or too high.

It is essential that everyone participate in a manner that is rational and receptive.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) You may have enjoyed some downtime recently, but you'll soon be required to get your motor running at top speed.

(June 7-June 20) – You'll have to be in constant communication with someone who is nominally in charge. Make changes as required.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) You may have to disrupt your routine on at least two occasions. One involves a family member who is in need of assistance. (July 8-July 22) – Your ability to hide your feelings away can work for you and against you simultaneously. Know when to speak openly.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) You'll want to research a certain issue quite carefully, following the trail wherever it leads until you have your answers. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) – The promise of something much brighter keeps you going when everything around you seems to be plunged into a kind of unexpected darkness.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) The battle between the head and the heart heats up considerably, and you may find it difficult to make even the simplest decisions. (Sept.

8-Sept. 22) – The lessons you learn will come to you with such clarity that you may wonder how you avoided learning them in the past!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) Perhaps you've already done the most important things, but even those little tasks that are left over can carry enormous weight. (Oct. 8-Oct.

22) – It's time for you to come clean. Your honesty is sure to be met with understanding and even a willingness to help.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) You're not as eager as a loved one to delve into certain subjects, but progress depends upon your ability to work together. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) – You may be wondering why things don't add up just now.

In fact, it's your own perspective that is skewing things the wrong way.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) You may be frustrated by another's seeming reluctance to join the 21st century and work at your accustomed pace.

(Dec. 8-Dec. 21) – You have the answers, but you must wait until you are asked the questions before sharing any pertinent info.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) You may feel as though you are unable to escape certain traps — traps that you have, indeed, set up for yourself.

(Jan. 7-Jan. 19) – Give another the chance to shine, and you'll feel just as good as you would if you had taken the opportunity yourself.

RESTAURANT REVIEW

Bohemian Café giving West, TX a run for it's kolaches

By Sara Newberry If you are not familiar with the Czech pastries called koláčes (aka kolaches), chances are you’re not from Texas, or have never driven the stretch of I-35 that runs past the small town of West, which is home to the Czech Stop, perhaps the most famous of the Czech bakeries.

Also in West are the less wellknown (but just as ardently loved) Village Baking Co. and Slovacek’s. Just as BBQ fans argue about Smitty’s vs. Black’s vs. Kreuz market, kolache fans hold forth about their favorites and why all others are lesser.

The downside to being an ardent fan of any of these kolache bakeries is that you had to drive to West to get a quality kolache, no matter which you prefer, which is kind of a drag if you’re not in the mood for a road trip. (Not that West isn’t a lovely town — if you have not been to Westfest in September of each year, I highly recommend it.)

Sure, you could find kolaches and the sausage rolls known as klobasniks at various donut shops around Dallas, but they are not the same as those in West, which are pillowy soft and not too sweet. So kolache lovers have learned to go without for the most part.

Luckily, though, East Dallas resident Jason Horne finally decided to do something about the dearth of fine kolaches in Dallas and opened Bohemian Café on Lowest Greenville last October. The menu offers more than just kolaches and klobaniks. There are also savory and sweet breakfast options, and Czechinspired choices for lunch and dinner.

We ventured there for breakfast on a weekday morning and were the only people in the place. Our server was very soft-spoken, adding further to the “library” vibe of the place. After ordering at the counter we sat down and were immediately informed that the waffles machine was broken and they would be unable to make me the quarter waffle I’d ordered, offering instead to add an extra crepe to my order of chicken

Chicken and crepes at Bohemian Café. and crepes. Instead, what I received were two full orders of chicken and crepes, which seemed a little like overkill,

but hey, free food. The crepes were perfect, tender and just a little sweet. The chicken had a lovely crisp crust, but what

were called tenderloins on the menu were actually formed chicken with a texture similar to chicken nuggets.

My husband’s Eggs Benedict was also a little off.

The kolache buns that stood in for the English muffins in a standard Benedict were fun, but we wished they’d been toasted longer to give more texture to the final dish.

Hollandaise sauce was lemony but much too thin, and the poached eggs were completely set, so there was no delicious yolk to mop up with the extra bread.

Dinner was similar.

Guláš (goulash) reminded me more of my mother’s spaghetti sauce than the classic dish normally redolent of smoky paprika and pungent caraway.

Frozen garlic bread completed the plate but didn’t really add anything. My husband’s Klobáse a Kaše (sausage and mashed potatoes) was better, with smoky sausage and garlicky potatoes pairing to create a perfect comfort dish.

Caramelized onions added a little sweetness, but the gravy on the dish was so salty it overpowered everything else.

I’m not sure I’d come back for either of these.

What I will return to Bohemian Café for are the pastries. Kolaches come in flavors both traditional

(prune, apricot, cherry, cheese) and unusual (Nutella peanut butter and bacon, margherita, chocolate chip pecan pie). The dough is incredibly soft and just sweet enough, and the fillings are flavorful and not at all cloying. Klobasneks are a mix as well, with the standard sausage varieties sharing the case with unusual flavors such as chicken and waffles and BBQ brisket. They are all fantastic, and I’d say definitely give the stalwarts in West a run for their money.

Service is friendly, if a little relaxed. We waited more than 20 minutes for our food on a Friday night when there was only one other table occupied. So obviously there are a few kinks to work out. But if Bohemian Café can bring the rest of the menu up to the level of those pastries, they might even turn Dallas into a kolache destination.

PARK cont'd from page 1 custom order when city leaders, park founders and more volunteers joined to cut the ribbon.

Fourteen years ago to the weekend, Dallas Rangers’ legend Nolan Ryan threw out the first bone at the park’s original ribbon cutting June 8, 2001.

Seventeen years earlier, armed with co-founder, Melissa Tinning and an idea, Andie Comini first approached the City of Dallas Park and Recreation Department, with the concept of a place where dogs could run free but be fenced in for their safety. Gary Griffith, then Park Board representative for District 9, was one of the projects’ key proponents.

He called the location perfect.

Fast forward to 2015 and, after a year of hard work, while the park was under reconstruction, the community and City officials were at the top of their game last weekend. A few of the improvements are the increased park for large dogs from 1.5 acres to two acres; the small dog park from half an acre to a full acre; improved grading, drainage and irrigation; more parking spaces, several sturdy benches and a total of 45 trees in both parks. About 2,000 linear feet of attractive fence, including a puppy panel,

The new dog launch was a popular attraction at Saturday’s White Rock Dog Park re-opening. enclose the area and keep the dogs safe. Those are only a few of the new amenities.

One of two enhancements that should be especially attractive to visitors is the paved trail around the perimeter of each park. “Parents” have the opportunity to walk or run while their pooches play and socialize.

Exceedingly popular opening weekend was the dog launch, formerly known as “that old boat ramp,” where fourlegged swimmers can swim, fetch and just cool off while

their persons visit with each other, while sitting on convenient, short stone walls. And, no, two-legged visitors still can’t swim in White Rock Lake.

But speaking of cool, although opening weekend was in the 90s, a slight breeze off the water helped visitors stay longer — so we should be good to go when the thermostat hits the 100s.

According to Comini: “Part of the opening ceremony was pointing out the unique partnership citizens and city government can have by

working together. Starting with an idea and going to the different agencies to see what needed to be done got the idea off the ground. By continuing to work together wonderful things can happen!”

The founders discovered another feature of the park’s utility quickly after that 2001 opening. Shortly after 9-11, the volunteers noticed a trend in attendees that included many without dogs. “Folks from retirement communities, parents with young children and

apartment dwellers just seemed to congregate there. They wanted to pet and hug the dogs. They wanted reassurance,” Tinning explained. “Our priority in encouraging development of the park was to help foster a sense of community. September 2001 demonstrated how that was being accomplished,” she added.

According to Gerald Worrall III, president of WKA Architects, Inc. and Dallas Park and Recreation board member for council District 9, “The park was selected for improvements and funded by the 2006 bond program to increase the park size, parking, improve storm drainage and add amenities such as the very popular ‘dog launch’ area for lake access. It is an important part of our park system in council District 9, and these upgrades will provide greater access and enjoyment for park users.” According to Worrall, the park is officially named the “Mockingbird Point Dog Park” but is referred to as the “White Rock Dog Park” by most.

In his comments at the ribbon cutting, Willis Winters, park director said, “… this was Dallas’ first off-leash park and we are delighted to present the new and improved version of this signature amenity to you.”

Volunteer and board member, Peggy Compton

praised the City of Dallas; “The city did a great job keeping the park as natural as possible.

Flood issues were addressed.”

Compton added, “Basic park rules are more clearly stated at the entrance of both the small and large parks. There are small kinks to work out in time yet overall the feedback is it’s the best dog park in Dallas and I agree. Many thanks to Dallas Park and Recreation.”

Comini concluded, “The dog park just makes me smile.

To see so many pups having the opportunity to run and play or just sit and relax in such a beautiful setting. Happy pups make for a happy family and a better community.”

Barring another 40 days and 40 nights of flooding rain, the community can enjoy and be proud of the fresh, off-leash park and can call it their home away from home. Pooches sure will.

Best friends send a big “high five” to the City of Dallas and the Park and Recreation department. The White Rock Dog Park is located off East Mockingbird Lane on the south, between Lawther Drive and Buckner Boulevard. Park hours are Sunday through Saturday, 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. and closed on Mondays for maintenance. For details, visit whiterockdogpark. org or facebook.com/WRLDP.

MOVIE TRAILER

Sink your teeth into intense, nerve wracking ‘Jurassic World’

By Chic DiCiccio In “Jurassic World,” a character mentions that kids these days see a dinosaur much like they see an elephant. It bores them and they need to see something bigger, faster, scarier and with more teeth.

Luckily, director Colin Trevorrow and the four credited screenwriters (usually spelling disaster) take heed with their own dialogue.

Once the dinosaurs show up and inevitable havoc strikes, this movie is a pressure cooker loaded with intense, nerve-wracking scenes.

The moments when dinosaurs aren’t savagely mutilating humans leave a bit to be desired. All the characters are one note and it takes far too long to get going, but “Jurassic World” usually sticks with what works: dinosaurs doing dinosaur stuff.

The stereotypes start with Gray and Zach (Ty Simpkins and Nick Robinson), two brothers that are sent off to Jurassic World to visit their aunt, Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard).

Claire is a busy businesswoman doing business and doesn’t have time for family so she assigns her assistant to babysit them, much to the chagrin of her sister, Karen (Judy Greer).

After dealing with potential corporate sponsors (which there are aplenty) and her aloof, uber-rich boss, Masrani (Irrfan Khan), Claire enlists raptor whisperer Owen (Chris Pratt) to inspect an exhibit that houses the world’s first hybrid dinosaur. There’s a hint of a romantic past between Owen and Claire, which is then quickly

Chris Pratt stars as Owen in "Jurassic World." shuff led aside so “Jurassic World” can get to the dinosaur onslaught.

There are a handful of subplots that keep the first hour of “Jurassic World” in first gear. The mad DNA scientist, Dr. Wu (BD Wong), throws out some fleeting debate regarding nature and science. There’s the militant Hoskins (Vincent D’Onofrio), a guy that wants to weaponize velociraptors, which is just as insane an idea as it sounds. There’s even the nerdy control room guy, Lowery (Jake Johnson), simply quipping away as the movie’s only comedic relief.

These shallowly written characters don’t make “Jurassic World” a bad movie, but they seem like nothing more than filler with each role created to fill action movie stereotype slots.

Once all hell breaks loose, Gray and Zach do the stupid kid thing and put themselves squarely in

harm’s way. As dinosaurs rage all over the island, Claire runs off to Owen, who then helps her track down her idiotic nephews.

The second hour of “Jurassic World” is a nonstop attack on the senses, with all variations of dinosaurs getting in on the killing. The effects are fantastic, stressing that this movie simply was impossible to create when the original came out in 1993.

There aren’t many moments that go for the “boo” scare tactic. Instead of jump scares, “Jurassic World” ramps up the shock and creepiness factor. There are a few moments that are unbearably intense, with a water death a la “Jaws” being the strongest of them.

It is downright bizarre how this movie was given a PG-13 rating. Seemingly hundreds of people are violently killed, some in bloody fashion, but because there (gasp) aren’t any f-words, no big deal.

This isn’t the type of movie that requires much from its actors, other than looking good and sounding somewhat convincing.

Thankfully, Chris Pratt isn’t playing Star Lord while wearing a safari vest here and, for the most part, stays away from the wise cracks.

He’s going full action hunk

here, and he easily fills that role.

The only character that has any arc is Bryce Dallas Howard’s Claire, who goes from ice queen to family heroine in the span of a few hours. It wouldn’t make sense for her to suddenly go from big time CEO to jungle dinosaur warrior, but she has several heroic moments that stay within the realms of reality regarding her character.

Howard does get to be the centerpiece of this movie’s one truly iconic moment that will have the entire audience forgetting every boring character and lame subplot they just viewed.

The problem that “Jurassic World” has is that from the second it starts, with its sprawling views of a gorgeous zoo/theme park, everyone watching it is waiting for the other T. Rex foot to drop. The score flies in, sounding gorgeous and full of promise, when we all know that we are about to see many, many, many people become dinosaur feed.

Of course, you aren’t going to see “Jurassic World” due to its layers upon layers of dramatic effect. You want to see dinosaurs run roughshod and overall Paleolithic chaos. Once it gets past the boring setup, that is exactly what you get.
