Rating: Summary: Finally, a BETTER Jurassic Park Sequel !!!!!!! Review: Unlike the Lost Word JP this sequel remains closer to the viewpoints of the original, Jurassic Park. Reflecting the same concept of how dangerous biotechnology can be when developed with greedy motivations and no real moral reasoning. This opinion is held by the film's lead character, Dr. Alan Grant, who is from the first movie, as well as Ellie Sattler. I was glad to see that they brought back these two favorites of mine, and found them to remain true to their original characters in Jurassic Park. Although it seems like Grant was slightly made into the Indiana Jones type, because there are segments that give similar impressions. Also, JP III has some situations that are reminiscent to the first film, which was nice.Despite what anyone else thinks, I'm going to say that the acting in this film is great, I really love it, and Tea Leoni did an admirable job. The actions and reactions of all the characters appear completely natural, making it a believable experience to watch. Once again the dinosaur animation is outstanding! The raptors are truly amazing! The movie becomes quite unpredictable, with suspense that just won't quit. All seasoned with a bit of humor at the right timing. The scenes are excellent and the camera flow is superb, making use of some fantastic angles to tell the story. It just has a way of grabbing your attention through sight, sound and emotion. I'm a DIE-HARD Jurassic Park fan, and even if I wasn't, I still think I would recommend this movie. Because it's just one bazaar thrill ride of narrow escapes for those of you who like disaster/survival adventures where man verses nature, (or in this case, beasts of terror.) It has no out right swearing, but still heed the PG-13 rating. Compared to the 2 previous films, this one has some of the most gruesome images. It's a bit obvious that a sequel is to follow, and it seems too, that this film was made with the prospect of another theme park ride in mind. But these things didn't totally ruin the excitement of the movie. Personally, I think Jurassic Park III is a far BETTER sequel than the Lost World JP and wish I could double underline the word BETTER. And oh yeah, even if you're somewhat of a Jurassic Park fan, don't hesitate a bit. Get this one on DVD or VHS; it won't be as disappointing as you might be lead to believe.
Rating: Summary: If you liked the first one you'll love this Review: I love everything about this movie. After the tragedy that was Jurassic Park 2 I didn't know what to expect from the third but, WOW. I cant believe I love a third installment of a movie so much. If anyone says this movie is terrible don't listen to them. The special effects are truly amazing, especially the raptors. If you aren't going to buy this movie, borrow it or at least give some thaught to renting it, although nothing quite compares to the big screen experience. BUY BUY BUY. I did and it was worth every last penny. Anyone who liked the original will love this.
Rating: Summary: Great... BUT Review: First of all, the line "HEAR THAT!!??, its a (INSERT RANDOM OBJECT HERE)RUN!!" was used about every second. The whole movie in general is great accept for the end. The ending of the movie stinks. The navy comes and rescuse them. Nothing more to say. The charaters were alrgiht. Rent before you buy

Rating: Summary: Throw-outs of the two previous and that¿s all. Review: The story begins when an adventurous married couple manage to persuade Grant (Sam Neil, who had already appeared in the first part), a palaeontologist that still continues his studies about prehistoric animals, in order to be him the one who will lead them in Sorna island, which is the last refuge for some revived dinosaurs by a scientist years ago. They actually want to find their lost child, but the plane crashes, so they are in danger, because the dinosaurs are everywhere, and this time, they are intelligent and have the capacity to communicate with each other. The group splits up in a moment, in which the boy finally appears, but they run up against the awful dinosaurs and they will have many problems from now to then. This is the third part of the saga started by Steven Spielberg, and is undoubtedly the worst. When I saw it, I didn't get scared in any moment; because of the regrettable performance the actors did, above all, Téa Leoni's. They never seemed to be really shocked with the entire situation. Besides, all was so predictable and boring: the very forced crashing of the plane, the hunt, and the way they escape at the end. The special effects were nothing extraordinary, and the script looks to be written in a couple of minutes. In addition, its short length proves their effort at making this pitiful movie that is completely lacking of any good ideas. I don't understand why was so successful.
Rating: Summary: An adequate thrill ride. Review: I think I can say with ease the Jurassic Park series is turning out better than the Jaws series. That might not sound like much praise, but this third go-round thriller is an enjoyable, albeit extremely brief, adventure set on Isla Sorna, AKA "That second dino island." Brought back into the fold is Sam Neill's Alan Grant, who's now leading a small team on the island in search of a missing teen. Yeah, the plot's thinner than ever, but what can I say? I'd be lying if I said I watched this movie for its story. All I really ask for is that a lot of puny humans get chased around by dinosaurs and for the most part, this film delivers. Sure, most of the characters are unlikeable (the only exceptions being Neill and his assistant, played by Alessandro Nivola) and annoying and the body count is too low, but the action sequences are well-choreographed and occasionally exciting. As can be expected, the visual effects are first-rate, though the dinos appear a bit too CGI at times, even moreso than its predecessors. The indoor settings offer more thrill potential (as witnessed in the original film), but director Joe Johnston seems to favor the jungle terrain, a bit of a disappointment. At a 91-minute running time, the film never wears out its welcome, but then again, it doesn't properly build momentum, either. Oh, well, at least it gets off to a quick start and never looks back. Recommended for those looking for a quick-paced jungle adventure, but don't expect the suspense, thrills, or pure magic of the original.
Rating: Summary: JP3 stinks! Review: JP3 is horrible! It isn't half as good as the awesome first two! The plot is the same as the other two and the movie is so predictable! Once I knew all the characters, I knew who was going to die and survive 10 minutes into the movie! Also I don't care for the DVD extras. An extra star for then special effects, but even they are cheesy! Buy 1 & 2 but don't buy this one!
Rating: Summary: MUCH better than the HORRIBLE Lost World: Jurassic Park 2 Review: The original Jurassc Park is a classic and will never be surpassed. Lost world on the other hand was HORRIBLE and made me wish i wasn't a fan of the series. When I went to see Jurassic Park 3 i was kind of doubtful but when the movie was over I came out of the thearter very pleased. Jurssic Park 3 is a good action flick that anyone can enjoy! It may be short but it will keep you entertained for the whole time that you are watching it. The cast in this movie is also really good. The cast includes Sam Neil from JP1, Tea Leoni(Deep Impact) William H Macy Alessandro Nivola(Best Laid Plans) and Trevor Morgan(The Glass House). Once again this is arealy FUN AND EXCITING movie that everyone can enjoy and should buy on DVD now!
Rating: Summary: The film that Destroyed the Jurassic Park series. Review: This film is so glaringly bad that it only shows that Universal really does not care for the fans of this once promising series. It's a juvenile follow up that really makes it's processors look really bad, and that's a great feat considering the fact that the first two had a little thing called class. Steven Spielberg surrenders the directional control to Joe Johnson who proves with out a doubt how Spielberg is the master of filmmaking by his extremely lack of talent. There is no direction to be found here, and the confuse look of the actors involve is a clear indication of this. Sam Neil And William H Macy are two gifted actors who literally destroy their reputations with performances that clearly contradicts their talent, and the rest of the actors involve as just as bad. The is literally no sense of plot to go by, and there is no climax. The dinosaur effects are not even up to standard, and that's a sad case because it came from the same team that did the first two movies. Those who think that this is an improvement over the last one is ether mentally challenge or being paid. Do yourself a favor, and pretend that this movie does not have anything to do with Jurassic Park. Rent Jurassic Park and The Lost World instead.
Rating: Summary: Jaws of the Jungle! Review: Joe Johnston took over the reigns from Steven Spielberg for the third entry in the Jurassic franchise, and while it's not as good as the original, it's more sucessful in terms of action than it's predecessor, THE LOST WORLD. Set four years after the "San Diego incident", JP3 not only has great action and thrills, but great characters, subsequently creating a more cohesive story. Sam Neill returns as Dr. Alan Grant, who is a much stronger character and the supporting cast of William.H Macy and Alessandro Nivola manage not to get lost amidst the barrage of CGI dinos. Johnston, who directed HONEY I SHRUNK THE KIDS and JUMANJI, took the special effects to a whole new level with the help of Stan Winston and ILM. This time around, we have the "Superpredator", Spinosaurus and terrifying Pterodactyls to up the action ante. From when the unfortunate group land on the island to when they get off, the fast-paced thrills hardly ever stop. There are problems; like the previous two films, the special effects overshadow the plot that basically isn't there, and the script is somewhat wooden. But take it in terms of great dino-sized scares, and this one gets 10 out of 10. This is one of the best DVDs on the market, with "The Making Of Jurassic Park 3", an insightful and entertaining feature commentary with Stan Winston and the SFX team, and several featurettes including "The New Dinosaurs Of Jurassic Park 3", "A Visit to ILM", "Tour Of The Stan Winston Studio" and "ILM's Computer-Generated Dinosuars". Also included are trailers, DVD Rom features and photo galleries. Must-have stuff for Jurassic fans.
