They are not, but money talks. Kids love dinosaurs. R rating limits the audience. So they likely won't do one for a good while. They even do the same thing with horror. Predator is almost pg these days. Answer from Blekanly on reddit.com

Primitive War (2025) ⭐ 5.3 | Action, Horror, Sci-Fi
October 3, 2025 - You get action scenes and quiet moments with dinosaurs that feel like a comic book come to life. It is basically Aliens meets Predator meets Jurassic Park all mashed together. Yes it is derivative but it still feels premium because of the effort and technical skill behind it. For me this is a 7 out of 10. If it were a giant Hollywood release I would probably rate it lower but as a smart well made B movie it is absolutely worth watching.

Sorry Jurassic World, But The Best Dinosaur Movie Of 2025 Was Primitive War - SlashFilm
7 hours ago - Sparke manages to cram so many dinosaurs into the movie's hulking runtime that it's downright staggering. Rather than hide these creatures in the dark and go with a less is more approach necessitated by a small budget and time constraints, the director throws everything at the wall and then some, stretching every dollar to its absolute limit. The set pieces are wild and escalate right up until the movie's delightfully absurd, over-stuffed third act. It's R-rated, no-holds-barred prehistoric action in a unique setting.

Jurassic World: Rebirth (2025) ⭐ 5.9 | Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi
July 2, 2025 - That said, it's still a step up from Fallen Kingdom and Dominion, which isn't saying much, but at least it's something. At this point, though, it's time Universal grew a pair and gave us the R-rated, blood-splattered dinosaur horror epic we deserve-because the stakes never feel high when your carnivores are sanitized for mass consumption.

r/Dinosaurs on Reddit: Opinions: Why do you want an R-rated Dinosaur movie?
October 3, 2025 -

In a lot of places online when talking about Jurassic Park or other dinosaur movies (especially the recently released (and honestly overhyped) Primitive War), I see a lot of posts wishing for more R-rated dinosaur projects…whether it’s imagining Jurassic Park more closer to its adult, R-rated roots, or just in general. And I’m curious about why?

R-rated (and beyond) dinosaur media does exist, and while some are really great (like the show Primal), majority of them tend to be low-budget schlocky affairs. For me personally, it seems that the R-rating is primarily used to justify either increased amounts of gore, or to allow the humans to use more foul language…but other than that it doesn’t seem to change much about the actual viewing experience. Movies like Jurassic Park, Peter Jackson’s King Kong, and even more kid-friendly options like Disney’s Dinosaur or The Land Before Time can feel scarier and way more intense than most R-rated stuff despite their lower age rating. Plus while there are lots of adult Dino fans, it would be argued that kids seems to be the much larger audience willing to see movies about dinosaurs…making it R-rated cuts off a good portion of your audience.

So question to you guys, more out of curiousity and research is why do you guys want to see an R-rated Dino movie?

Carnosaur (1993) ⭐ 3.7 | Horror, Sci-Fi
May 21, 1993 - Overall, could have been worse, especially considering what I'd read, but not a good movie. I recommend it partially for those who want a bit of silly fun without having to think too much, but for those who does know what to expect but still want to see some kind of quality put into it they may want to look elsewhere. 4/10 Bethany Cox ... Come on, did we really EXPECT a worthy rip-off of "Jurassic Park" here? If it's taken at face value, CARNOSAUR is a fun way to kill 90 minutes. The dinosaur effects are laughable at best, but overall it's better scripted than the average Roger Corman slaughterama, and Dianne Ladd gives an over-the-top performance that alone makes this one worth watching.

Jurassic World: Rebirth (2025) - Parents guide - IMDb
Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of violence/action, bloody images, some suggestive references, language and a drug reference. ... Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson) appears in several scenes wearing tank tops that expose cleavage and bare shoulders. A man is shown shirtless in several scenes. In the museum, there are some nude paintings in the background. These are mostly obscure though. ... Two People get swallowed whole, dragged away. The main villain is bitten in half by a dinosaur and we see his hand fall to the ground, shortly after you can see the dinosaur eating the rest of his lower body.

r/JurassicPark on Reddit: Jurassic World: Rebirth rated R?
October 26, 2024 -

Hello! I’m not an avid Jurassic-franchise fan and I’m French which doesn’t help for the attachment I gave–but I saw online that Jurassic World: Rebirth is going to be rated R. So I looked it up online because I didn’t know what that meant, and it seems a little odd to me that they rate a Jurassic movie as an R movie…

Genuine question of course!! But I would like to know if this is a temporary rating, or if it’s going to be the actual rating of the movie. And (if you want) your thoughts on the rating. Thanks in advance.
