Jurassic Park III

A fantastic action ride with a healthy dose of clichés, but surprisingly with enough chase sequences and once again an amazing feeling of discovering animals. Additionally, 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 Spielberg" Johnston. (02/07/2005)

An unashamed B-movie riding a dime-novel, King Kong-style wave. It has nothing whatsoever to do with part one, but nor is it as completely brain-dead as part two. This is mainly thanks to the sensible length and solid pace. The effects aren’t always completely well-done and not even the dinosaurs that did much to save the previous parts aren’t really up to their ancestors. Plus, thanks to the constant escapades and running away from carnivorous predators, there wasn’t enough time for any feeling of wonder and “cute" scenes with herbivores. But at least those carnivores meet a sticky end. (26/01/2007)

I like this a little more than the second one, but mainly because this movie doesn't pretend to be anything and is almost pure B-movie. Also, because Sam Neill is in it, and he is my favorite in the whole series. Additionally, there are aerial dinosaurs in this one, who only had a small cameo in the previous film. It's bad, but not that much. (11/04/2015)

Of the entire Jurassic Park series, ironically I had the most fun with the third one, maybe because I wasn’t expecting much. Yeah, it was shit, but it didn’t pretend to be anything else. It's fast-paced, the action scenes start a few minutes after the beginning and end with the closing credits. It’s just pop-corn entertainment as it should be. And the scene with the pterodactyls in the cage is a blast. (19/06/2002)

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)
