Rating: Summary: Time for Jurassic Park to go extinct Review: Even though I thought this movie was better in some respects to the Lost World, the actors/actresses were very cheesy. William H. Macy is a better actor than this movie lets on or allows him to be. Tea Leoni's character is a bumbling bimbo, who doesn't listen to reason. Somehow the couple of Paul and Amanda Kirby, played by the actors above, persuade Dr. Alan Grant, (Sam Neill), to overfly the second island, Isla Sorna, to view the dinosaurs, offering plenty of donation money to his cause in Montana on digging up fossils.He goes along for the ride, and finds out the couple is not rich or common sense adventurers, but two divorced parents looking for their kid, lost on this island. The adventure starts here, with the dinosaurs including the T-Rex, Raptors, and Pterodactyls chasing the gang through the jungle. Good special effects, but the movie wheezed by, leaving only a vague memory of what happened. Pretty lame plot, and except for the music and the introduction of the Pterodactyls, the movie was a flop. Glad I rented it.
Rating: Summary: better sequel than the lost world Review: This movie was just sequel fun and was better than the bogged down second film.
Rating: Summary: the best since the first JP Review: this movie is awesome!... i love it! i watch it all the time. it is a great movie. but it should have been 2 hours like the other two. it was ONLY 93 minutes. that is one of the things i was diapointed about. the other thing is that it only shows the rex one time because the spinosaurus broke its neck during the fight. but overall it is a great movie. lots of dinosaurs. the raptors are still the best. ive had this movie since christmas.
Rating: Summary: Not what it could have been. Review: While I'm a huge fan of Jurassic Park, the last movie could have been much better. The characters weren't developed enough and the movie just moved along too quickly. The movie did have scary parts in it and the dinasours were great, it just wasn't the same as the original. Maybe if Stephen Spielberg himself had directed it, it might have been better.
Rating: Summary: Lets see what Speilberg has in store for Jurassic Park 4!! Review: Not a bad sequel. It's one of those movies that you go to the theater for some fun. If you have read both books by Michael Crichton, then you'll notice some familiar parts in this third installment that did not make it into the previous two films. Speilberg now has an idea for Jurassic Park 4. I'm hoping it will be a continuation of the story line that was set up in the first movie, how Dennis Nedry (Wayne Knight) was hired by Biosyn to steal embryos. Maybe Biosyn and Ingen will have a showdown!! Or, Jurassic Park will finally be built safe for visitors!
Rating: Summary: This time, it's not just a walk in the park Review: i love jurassic park 3! of course, i love all of them, but 3 has to be my favorite! it has soo much action, a few quirky lines, and, to me, most importantly, new and bloodthirtsy dinosaurs!! the acting is good, by Neill, Macy, Leoni, Nivola and Morgan, and the other not so main charecters, including Jeter and Dern. i don't think Joe Johnson made a pointless movie. i think it was all about survival of the fitess. i watch jurassic park 3 at least once a month or more. Some parts are scary, but thats what makes the movie so brilliant. and the spinosaur was AWESOME!! the graphics, cgi, whatever, are really good, and the pteradactlys in the birdcage give me chills when one turns to look at dr. grant (Neill)and Paul Kirby (Macy). alot of people won't agree with me on how good this movie is, but it does keep you on the edge of your chair. and i like how the end leaves it open for a jurassic park 4.....
Rating: Summary: better than old seinfeld re-run Review: but not by much. at least the dinosaurs look cool. best viewed while the sound is turned off so you're not distracted by the dialogue.
Rating: Summary: MIA: JOHN HAMMOND LAST SEEN JP2 Review: OK, where is hammond? This crappy movie is....well...crappy. I'm sorry to say this but I am a JP fan ever since the first movie. The reason enough this [stinks] is that there is not enough back ground to these characters. I mean what happened between the first movie and then? Did the palentoligist hook up with the whiny women? Did Hammond croak? They instantly srug off the t-rex so the SO NARROW IT IS CHEESY SPINOSARUS COULD TAKE OVER. Why? The other thing is THE RAPTERS ARE ALL OF A SUDDEN SUPER INTELLEGENT. THEY ALSO HAVE WHINY TAG-ALONGS SUCH AS THOSE TWO PEOPLE PORTRAYING TO BE RICH. I don't need to rant on and on... get a book untill anouther better seaquil comes out.
Rating: Summary: Mediocre Movie--Good Extras Review: The film is only so-so, but the extras on the DVD are fun. It's interesting to see the progression of special effects through the three movies from either digital OR model to a striking combination of both. Probably the best DVD extras of any of the three films.
Rating: Summary: I hope this is the last one of the series Review: The first JP movie was very good, although it was clearly altered from the book so it would appeal to a wider audience. JP2, the Lost World, was not good. It had the same tampering, but also had the ridiculous part in San Diego, was way too predictable, and all the characters were annoying cliches. JP3 is no better than Lost World. It has the same predictabliity, and the same terrible, cliched characters, and, of course, there just has to be a little kid involved again. Unless the only reason you watch movies is for special effects (which, admittedly, are excellent here) I would suggest avoiding this one.
