Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom ends on a dramatic and uncertain note. Throughout the film, the characters grapple with the ethics of whether dinosaurs should exist outside their controlled habitats. They try to save the remaining dinosaurs from a volcanic eruption, but it’s clear that human greed and scientific ambition play a significant role in the chaos that ensues. The film’s climax involves the attempted containment of the dangerous hybrid, the Indoraptor, which Owen and Claire manage to stop, but not before chaos erupts. During the chaos, Maisie Lockwood, a clone of a human girl, makes a conscious and emotional decision to free the dinosaurs, seeing them not just as creations of humans but as beings deserving of life.

This act of releasing the dinosaurs unleashes a flood of chaos into the world. We see the dinosaurs escaping into the wild—T-Rex in a zoo, Mosasaurus attacking boats, and Pteranodons soaring over California, eventually reaching Nevada and circling over Las Vegas’ Eiffel Tower in a haunting shot. The film ends with the realization that the dinosaurs are now truly outside human control, not limited to a park or island but capable of roaming freely on Earth once again. The closing montage and Ian Malcolm’s line, “Welcome to Jurassic World,” suggest that the world has forever changed, where dinosaurs are now a real and unpredictable part of the planet’s ecosystem.

The ending leaves many questions open about the future. It hints that while immediate danger might seem contained, the potential for these creatures—and the dangerous genetic technologies behind them—to cause further chaos looms large. The film also raises the issue of human hubris, especially with Maisie’s clone, which symbolizes the broader ethical dilemmas of playing god with DNA. The released dinosaurs, the presence of vials of genetic material, and the scientist Henry Wu’s escape all suggest that the threat of more hybrids, or even the creation of soldiers or unintentional consequences, is still very much a possibility.

Ultimately, the film underscores a central theme: the immense power of genetic manipulation and the unpredictable fallout when humans tamper with nature. While the chaos begins on a small scale—dinosaurs in the wild—it’s clear that the potential for greater danger remains. The film sets the stage for the next chapter in the franchise, where the consequences of playing with nature could escalate, and humanity must confront the reality that dinosaurs are now a part of our world once more. The ending is not just about the dinosaurs, but about the broader questions of morality, control, and the limits of human scientific hubris.
