Jurassic Park III

Pros: dinosaurs
Cons: everything else

Having three kids, we don't get out to the movies much. Oh sure, we usually manage to catch the latest (child-oriented) animated flicks out there, but a night alone at the movies? Those happen only three times a year: for each of our birthdays and our ...

Pros: Dinosaurs LOVE Human Flesh
Cons: Script, acting, no real suspense, fear, or revulsion...except to the movie itself

....and that doesn't mean I'm knocking Scooby-Doo per se, neither am I knocking Jurassic Park III. There's definitely a place and time for movies like this, and an audience for it. And for what it's worth, we enjoyed our little matinee screening of the...

Pros: Nerve-jangling suspense, dinosaurs so real you can smell their rotten-meat breath
Cons: A slow build-up, some of the human characters are computer-generated

Stephen Spielberg has directed one of the most thought-provoking, navel-gazing movies of this summer.

And if you’re looking for that movie in this cineplex, you’ll need to go three doors down where they’re showing A.I....

Pros: Superb action scenes, great animation
Cons: Ending

Jurassic Park III, yet another followup to excellent predecessors, this movie was from beginning to end, an action packed thrill ride with the greatest animation I have ever seen. With this review I am not trying to ruin the movie for those who have not...

Pros: Glad to see parents reunite for the love of their child.
Cons: The ending of the movie is to quick!

It may not be a walk in the park, but it’s also not a stroll down blockbuster lane.

Wednesday night July 18, 2001 after work I headed to the theater to see the earliest showing of Jurassic Park 3, in hopes of saving a few bucks to...

Pros: Grate dinersores and purty seenry
Cons: Riting's even below my lowly level

Wull, we flippered a coin and I dun lost. I wanted to revue that monky moovie called "Plannet of them Apes" but cents I lost I've gotta revue "Jurastic Park 3". Don't git me rong, I injoyed part of the moovie. The part when the dinersores wuz a...

Pros: A great sequel to a terrific movie. Fantastic special effects.
Cons: Hard to imagine that people don't learn their lessons the first time around!

Figured with the holidays and some free time on my hands away from the busy work at school, it was time to catch up on some of the movies I have been hankering to see. Jurassic Park III was just one such movie on my list.

Dr. Alan Grant...

Pros: Good acting, action, effects
Cons: It's not special

Once again this summer, we have the opportunity to be whisked away to the Caribbean island of Isla Sorna, where beauty awaits those who can avoid becoming dinosaur dinner. Of course, with all the dinosaurs there, nobody plans to visit, but people still...

Pros: Good story, picks up the missing half of the original.
Cons: Not as scary.

Opening night at the movies doesn't happen very often for my husband and I. We usually tend to avoid the overcrowded theaters ... but this was different. It was Jurassic Park III. I really enjoyed the movie, I usually tend to rate them on their...

Pros: None that I can think of.
Cons: Everything, absolutely everything.

At the time, Siskel & Ebert gave The Lost World: Jurassic Park a lousy review, and since I consider that to be a vastly superior film to this current sequel, I expect the current tag-team of Ebert & Roper to roast and thoroughly ...

Pros: cast, sets, special effects, action
Cons: characters, predictable story, lack of suspense

From a commercial point of view, Jurassic Park III was quite successful. The U.S. box office was nearly $200 million, twice that of the budget, and a fourth film is now in the works.

From a critical point of view, Jurassic Park...

Pros: Great effects, lots of action
Cons: Minimal dialogue, forgettable characters

Most movie sequels get progressively worse as the sequel number rises. For example: Scream, Robocop, Iron Eagle, Friday the 13th, and the list goes on. Jurassic Park III is by no means a bad movie, but it certainly is not as good as the first, and just...

Pros: Great Special Effects and New Dinosaurs.
Cons: Movie Trailer gives it away!

My husband and I were SO excited as we grabbed tickets TWO HOURS in advance, and got in line to sit down and HOUR before hand! This was it, this was the movie that I had been anticipating for since I had been to Universal Studios in California and...

Pros: The dinosaurs are excellent as usual - the effects deliver
Cons: The story is a thin veneer upon the effects

In 1993, Steven Spielberg once again broke new cinematic ground with a movie with a novel story and never-before-seen special effects: Jurassic Park. Nearly a decade later, the film is in its third incarnation. The story is now anything but...

Pros: A slick and entertaining little genre piece.
Cons: It's completely formula and no one rises above it.

Joseph was most apologetic over the shoddy accommodations in New Orleans - he swears that a local promoter was to blame. He had been assured that the Cajun Crawfish Club was an exclusive little bistro. He's vowed that the next stop, scheduled...
