Jurassic Park III

I like it a bit more than the second one, mainly because this film doesn't pretend to be anything special and is almost pure B-movie, but also because Sam Neill is in it, and he's my favorite in the whole series. Moreover, there are also flying dinosaurs here, which only had a small cameo in the previous film. Bad, but not that bad. (11/04/2015)

A bunch of gluttonous dinosaurs for the third time and in the hungriest caliber. This third installment is a hair behind the second and a full hide behind the first. The dinosaurs are fancier, the action scenes are plentiful and even the old friend Sam Neill is back. On the other hand, I was a little annoyed that what’s supposed to be an originally adventurous sci-fi film became a family drama at times. All in all, good and bad, and technically still a great experience with a somewhat inferior plot and a properly short running time. But whatever ... I just love dinosaurs! (27/08/2010)

A fantastic action romp with a healthy dose of clichés, but surprisingly with enough chase sequences and yet again the amazing feeling of discovering creatures. Besides, the flying creatures at the end are a very successful revitalization. After the botched second installment, an unexpected flood of triumphant aces in combination with the "second Steven Spielberg" Joe Johnston. (02/07/2005)

High-quality craftsmanship that honestly fulfilled the mediocre screenwriting ambitions. The two biggest dinosaurs are shown to us right from the start, followed by a lot of solid action (and inherent illogic), and in the last third we get a very enjoyable and previously unseen airborne surprise. All of this packed into a short runtime that won’t let you look at your watch even once. (10/08/2002)

Relatively decent entertainment that doesn't pretend to be an action blockbuster because it's not. It's the shortest, least extravagant, but possibly also the most dynamic. We are introduced to a truly blessed amount of dinosaurs, with the two largest ones practically at the beginning. The action is quite imaginative, occasionally too focused on the visual effects, but it can be endured. It's not Spielberg's grandeur, but this time it doesn't matter. Sam Neill is equally good, and the others have nothing to be ashamed of. The third time around, the fun is slightly exhausted, but for a single watch? Why not. (17/06/2006)
