September 7, 2009Any excuse to watch a group of people get chased by Dinosaurs eh! JP3 is better than The Lost World but its generally because its got its tongue firmly in in its own cheek. A great B-Movie but a poor sequel.

June 21, 2009"This Time It's Not Just A Walk In The Park!"
A decidedly odd couple with ulterior motives convince Dr. Alan Grant to go to Isla Sorna (the second InGen dinosaur lab.), resulting in an unexpected landing...and unexpected new inhabitants on the island.

January 5, 2009Glad to see Sam Neill back. Along with great CG, the story is better than Lost World. A lot of fun to watch.

January 3, 2009A simple plot, Sam Neill and lots of rampaging dinosaurs? Now I remember why the first one was eminently watchable! Joe Johnston, congratulations: you salvaged this franchise with a simple, straight-ahead movie that (despite Tea Leoni's atrocious haircut) did the original justice...( read more)

November 18, 2009Again, a very different movie than both of its predecessors. It has a different tone to it, obviously due to the switch in directing. It does, however, have a great story at the core of it. It's great to see Sam Neil and Laura Dern back in their characters. This was a lot more co...( read more)

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Not as awe-inspiring as the first film or as elaborate as the second, but in its own B-movie way, it's a nice little thrill machine.

October 29, 2009Now, personally i thought this movie was a bit of a let down for the franchise. I LOVE Jurassic Park, and The Lost World, also Jurassic Park III, But i felt this one was my least favourite. I think it was because, Tyrannosaurus wasnt in the movie, and was replaced by Spinosaurus...I didnt like Spino too much, didnt hate it! but wasnt exactly a good replacement for Rex. I think T-rex should have had more scenes in the movie...but the idea of JPIII was still good, and it was still enjoyable to watch, but sorry everyone, this was my least favourite from the JP franchise...

I think JP3 was great, fantastic and well-done! They should make another sequel for all the dino fans! This movie has gore, action, excitement and ALOT of adventure! I LOVE THIS MOVIE! I also think that this movie is so good it should deserve a metal! I hope more people watch it and highly reccomend it. This is a great movie, DEFINETLY a 5/5.
