As I said back when you asked me to voice act, I love dinosaurs.
You can't go wrong with dinosaurs.
If the ending of the latest Jurassic World movie is anything to go by, the idea of a world overrun by dinos, now back as the top of the food chain, is compelling and ripe with potential. However, most of those films gave us an opening scene that hinted at all the terror and drama to come through some action/drama before the avalanche of exposition that would follow.

The idea of viewers discovering the state of the world alongside "John Doe" is also a really good idea, but I feel it takes too long (Nearly 3 minutes!) to even get to him. To that point, we've had little hints, but nothing that really draws viewers in. Then, we get told all about the facilities, their purpose, all the details about what happened, only to finally see the dinos about about a minute before the credits.

Yes, it's only episode 1. No, you don't have to show your whole hand right off the bat. But comparing this to Among Us, this has, on paper, a much more exciting premise (Dinos overcome the world, man responsible possibly pretends to lose memory) over that one. (missing boy returns home, but could be imposter.) Yet the other, to me, is far more emotionally engaging.

The characters in Among Us were also flawed people, probably shady, and certainly had agendas of their own, however, I think we get a better grip on each of the characters in Among Us because they are introduced more gradually and each given the highlight in a scene before the cast is again expanded. We get a feel for who they are and what they want before moving on. I feel like, even by the end, we know some about these characters here, but not nearly as much. Introducing a large cast is rough, making each person feel like a real, interesting person is hard, but I know you've got the storytelling chops to pull it off!

However, as for some of the things this film got really right:
Dinosaurs!
The runtime is just about perfect. It tells what it's trying to say, but doesn't stress the attention span of viewers.
The final ending twist was unexpected and instantly adds some great mystery.
I do like the idea of "discovering" the world as John Doe does, even if the execution could have been polished up.
Reusing the Agents theme torsos was a great idea and gives those employees a distinctive flair.
Oh, and there were dinosaurs!

Considering the cliffhanger, only makes that reveal all the more abrupt, shocking, and yet climatically satisfying.
