I’m going to try to explain these “flaws” the best I can in no particular order.

People are saying that the story was basically the Lost World 2.0, but although the beginning does have elements from the latter, the rest of the movie have new elements, like the volcano erupting, selling dinos in a black market auction, the human clone, the consequences of hybrid cloning, and villains who are willing to kill anyone with no remorse.

The lake in the center wasn’t moved to the edge, it was just that the gate was led to a water canal, which also lead to the open sea. The other thing is that the digital maps of the island were incorrect, as explained by Colin Trevorrow. https://twitter.com/colintrevorrow/status/1008658304841723906?lang=en

Why could they move the dinos to Sorna? Well, three things:


 * Remember the Spinosaurus? It was an illegal clone and killed everything in sight, hence the ecosystem there was crumpling. Plus, if the Spinosaurus was alive, it would have killed them too.
 * There was also another volcano and volcanic activities, which The Lost World game foreshadowed.
 * The Dinos in Nublar were zoo animals: they have no idea how to defend themselves, nor know how to get food. What if they were ill? Then that means no caretaker would treat them, hence diseases would spread and affect other.

Okay, I’ll admit that the villains are somewhat stereotypical, oblivious, and their plan to find Blue was a little risky, but there were villains like this in the novels and the previous movies (Except Jurassic Park III had no villains). But the villains here are more ruthless and cold-blooded then their previous counterparts, especially the main villain of the movie, Eli Mills, who is a manipulative, sociopathic, greedy, ambitious, and treacherous businessman, and willing to murder anyone to get what he wants but despite all of that, he does valid points, as seen when he called out Claire for exploiting the Indominus rex and other dinosaurs for money, and Owen for being close to the raptors even though he’s training them for military purposes. Anyway, like John Hammond in the novel, his greed was his downfall, and because of his horrible deeds, him getting devoured by the T-Rex was satisfying.

The CGI is amazing, because in fact, when in some cases they use animatronics or CGI, you wonder which of the latter was a CGI model or animatronic. Speaking of which, how come no-one mentioned there's more animatronics in this film??? Plus, I compared scenes between Jaws-3D and the submarine scene and I was like, "That's baloney!"

Possibly, the Stygimoloch was able to break through the brick wall and the iron doors because:

1. It has enough room since the cage was big and it’s a medium-size dino, while the other big dinos were kind of cramped.

2. It had momentum, and its head was hard, okay? So, with the latter’s head and the room to create momentum, it’s plausible.

3. To be fair, the brick wall was degrading.

The page claims that the movie "feels like two distinct films joined end on end: it's like halfway through, the production crew got bored of making their by-the-numbers Jurassic Park sequel and started making a toned-down Roger Corman horror film about dinosaurs killing people in a mansion instead." Okay, Jurassic Park was always sci-fi horror film, and remember the scene with the raptors in the kitchen? In this case, that was one of the horror elements. So the tone of the movie is just the same. Also, in what is it goofy?

The two characters, Franklin and Zia, as annoying they can be, they do serve a purpose in the film:

Zia is a strong and independent, but overconfident woman. But not only she’s a paleo-veterinarian, but she’s a former marine, so it would make sense why she is this way. Anyway, after when Blue got fatally shot, she stepped in and threatened that Blue will die, and afterward cared for her and got the bullet out.

Franklin is a former IT technician and a hacker but kind of a wimp, though his cowardness can be justified. I am, wouldn’t you scream in a high pitch voice if a carnivorous dinosaur tried to eat you? However, at the end of the film, he finally did a brave thing and free Zia and Blue.

Overall, without them, Blue would have died.

Despite Malcom having a limited screen time, he has a bigger role than you think. He serves as Michael Crichton’s mouthpiece was telling everyone the consequences of dinosaurs and how humans are paying the price. I mean, he is an expert in the Chaos theory after all. The blood transfusion is not as implausible as you think. In fact, it's a medical procedure called xenotransfusion, in which you transfer different blood between, in this case, different species, such as a T-Rex and a raptor. However, this can have side-effects, and can be used only ONCE. In other words, this gave the T-Rex big role in the movie, since her blood saved Blue.

Now the Dinosaurs in modern warfare could work. I mean sure, we do have drones, and all-terrain vehicles, and it does sound like a dumb idea, but if you think about it, certain dinosaurs would great. Like for example, Gallimimus can be used to travel via certain terrain all-terrain vehicles can’t go, Compies can be used for mine-sweeping, surveying, and carrying diseases, I-Rex would have been used for stealth and taking down enemies, Etc. This is where the Indoraptor comes in. It can be used hunt down and kill a certain target. Taking care of these creatures would cost money and resources, but so does solders and vehicles. Plus, drones and any other equipment can be easily hacked. Fun Fact: Rats are used for mine-sweeping and surveying, and K-9 units, so animals in warfare are still being used.

Owen and Claire always loved each other: It was just that they were separated for a while.

Blue was being loyal to Owen, not nice. Loyal. In the First Jurassic World, sure, she would gladly try to bite Owen, but that’s not the case. She was still loyal to Owen, because he’s her Alpha. Heck, she and other raptors wasn’t even trying to attack him when the Indominus Rex supposedly turned the raptors against Owen. And in her first scene in Fallen Kingdom, even though she knew that Owen was not alone, she still trusted him and was curious.

Speaking of the Indoraptor, he can be controlled by a line-of-sight laser pointer attached to a gun. Why couldn’t they just use the gun? Well for starters, GUNS MAKE NOISES. I mean, even if the gun has a silencer, it would be heard by others, so it wouldn’t be good for stealth missions. Besides, the Indoraptor is a prototype, a flawed one in fact, so the gun was not the final product. That’s why they needed Blue, because she’s obedient and have empathy, and the Indoraptor lacked the requirements. Well yes, I must agree the T-Rex was used as a marketing, but nevertheless she still had big role. The Indoraptor, on the other hand, is an awesome hybrid in my opinion, and his design great and is not out of place. He even has a personality: he enjoys toying with his prey and making them fearful before killing them. In fact, he was inspired by different horror movie monsters, like Dracula and Nosferatu. But like I mentioned before, he’s a flawed prototype, as if you close attention to the details like his body language, you can see him twitching in an uncomfortable way or you can hear him cough in a way. You know there was a deleted scene in the movie, where that was supposed to be his first scene, where you can see him playing with a human skull. I wish that scene wasn’t deleted.

You know, the line, "Raptors are the second most intelligent life.", should have been like, "Raptors are the most second intelligent life." So yeah, the dialogue can be poor, but so can dialogue from the first Jurassic Park, with lines like, "That is one big pile of sh*t."

Isabella Sermon, Maisie’s actress, does her performance decently in my opinion, but that doesn’t she shouldn’t improve. While the actress is twelve years old, the character she’s playing as is nine years old, as confirmed by Trevorrow. Now what do we know about Maisie and what is her purpose in the film? Well, we know for a 9-year-old, she is intelligent and sneaky, as seen how she escaped from her bedroom. Her being a clone is rather odd, but so is dinosaurs being clones. However, remember that Lockwood’s daughter died, and wanted her back by cloning her. Do you know why we have never heard of Benjamin Lockwood until now, even though he helped Hammond with cloning the dinosaurs? Maisie is the reason: since he wanted to bring his diseased daughter back, Hammond opposed the idea of human cloning, as stated by Mills, “John Hammond was right: it was an unholy thing that you did.” Now possibly right after John Hammond’s death in 1998, He began trying to clone his daughter, and it wasn’t until in 2009 he succeeded, in which Maisie was born. Plus, since she’s a clone, Mills and Wu would try experiment on her to try splice human DNA with dino DNA, possibly to create dinosaur-human super solders.

Speaking of Maisie, a lot of people are giving her flak for releasing the dinosaurs and her reason being, “They’re alive, like me.” Now think about it: after being told that she’s a clone, or in this case, “an unholy thing”, Owen and Claire still protected her and saved her from the Indoraptor. Seeing the kindness they gave to her and knowing that the dinosaurs are clones, Maisie did the same what Owen and Claire would have done: saving them from death. I mean, sure the dinos are dangerous, but they’re animals, and they just want to survive and find a home where they could be safe. Here’s an interesting question: if you were in Maisie’s shoes, would have you done the same? Or in other words, do you think the dinosaurs deserve to die? This would be a hard decision to make now, would it? Besides, two things 1. she’s a kid, and her decision, though impulsive, was unselfish and noble. The Indorator was the one tearing people apart and traumatized her. The other dinos were not at fault here. Technically, she unintentionally did the world a favor: After releasing the dinos, the T-Rex devoured Mills and destroyed the I-Rex bone, hence saving the world from any more dangerous hybrids that would have been worse. Also, even if they let the dinosaurs die, remember that some were bought by certain businessmen from different countries in the illegal auction, so it isn’t Maisie’s entire fault. While we’re on the subject of dinosaurs being free, we’re not going to get a Dino invasion. Instead, we’re probably going to have the same situation with certain creatures like bears or shark. In conclusion, these “flaws” or “plot-holes” can be explained.
