About this movie

Director Joe Johnston takes over the creative reins from Steven Spielberg for this third installment in the thriller franchise. Sam Neill returns as Dr. Alan Grant, a scientist who's tricked by wealthy couple Paul and Amanda Kirby (William H. Macy and Tea Leoni) into a fly-over of Isla Sorna. The object of their sightseeing tour is one of the Costa Rican islands populated by ferocious, genetically bred dinosaurs and the "site B" setting of Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World (1997). After their plane crash-lands, it's revealed that the Kirbys are actually seeking their teenage son, lost on the island after a paragliding accident. Trapped on Isla Sorna, Grant and his companions discover some painful truths the hard way. Among their discoveries: some of the scaly monsters possess more advanced communicative abilities than previously believed, the dreaded Tyrannosaurus Rex has a larger and more lethal competitor, and flying Pteranodons pose an even graver threat than some of their land-locked brethren. Jurassic Park III is the first in the series not to be based upon a novel by original author Michael Crichton.

With Sam Neill from The Piano making a return, William. H Macy from Marmaduke and Tea Leoni from Deep Impact. They bring you back to Isla Sorna, to look for Amanda's and Paul Kirby's missing son. On the way, they meet a extremely ferocious and horrifying Spinosaurus and the Velociraptor's again, it never gets old! They get attacked by Pteranodon's, make a stampede and at the beginning, they're attacked which knocks they're plane down into a tree.

I get many hate this one. I can see where they are coming from, there are some flaws and plot holes, but I still enjoy watching it. The T Rex was used too much in Jurassic Park 2, so bringing in the Spinosaurus was good. It was different. This movie loses the morals on capitolism and nature that was put across in the first two, but it was enjoyable. The T Rex vs Spinosaurus was great, the Pterodactyl scene was great. The kid wasnt annoying. This is a fun watch, a popcorn thrill ride.

Well it's the worst in the trilogy just bad. The story is a bore the plot is predictable and boring. I would rate 2 star if it weren't for the woman screaming all the time living. She should have died man.
