Movie Info & Cast
Synopsis
Anxious to fund research for his new theory of velociraptor intelligence, renowned paleontologist Dr. Alan Grant is persuaded by wealthy adventurer Paul Kirby and his wife Amanda to accompany them on an aerial tour of Isla Sorna. This infamous island, once InGen's site B, has become both a primordial breeding ground for John Hammond's magnificent creations and a magnet for thrill-seekers eager to encounter them. When a tragic accident maroons the party of seven, Grant discovers the true reason his deceptive hosts have invited him along. In their perilous attempt to escape, the dwindling group encounters terrifying new creatures undisclosed by InGen, and Grant is forced to learn the dreadful implications of his raptor intelligence theory firsthand.

I like this one, it has lots of dinosaurs in it, but minus a million points for the fact that after the army shows up there's no army vs. dinosaur fight, I mean come on.

Chris EvangelistaJun 4, 2018The raptors talk in this one. Also Laura Dern is a housewife now. At least William H. Macy has a sweet mustache.

It's not very good but it's short!
Patrick WillemsMay 20, 2022Reverse Darwinism, survival of the most idiotic
Bryan EspitiaAug 18, 2022Not gonna argue with most of the criticisms people have of this one but I'm sorry it gets the setup out of the way quickly and then transitions into basically 70 straight minutes of solid, mean monster mayhem/survival setpiece machinery courtesy of Johnston. Sometimes all…

Best things about Jurassic Park: Jeff Goldblum and T-Rex Percentage of either of those things in Jurassic Park III: 0.2% I rest my case.

I like it more than number 2 but less than number 1, of course. I don't think any Jurassic movie could beat number 1. The reason I like this more than number 2 is because although the plot and dialogue are mediocre at best, it's straightforward and weirdly understandable. The characters have…
Jordan lovedJurassic Park IIIJust rewatched Jurassic Park III. It’s still my favorite in the trilogy. Probably because it was my first “scary” movie as a kid. That opening scene is just so good. The plane crash, the aviary, the boat are some of my all-time favorite Jurassic scenes are in this one. And the toddler getting…

Alex Ruppert dislikedJurassic Park IIII really don’t remember this movie but I do really remember not liking it. I remember the plot just being so overly ridiculous and absurd that I lost all interest. And similar to the second movie the new characters were either uninteresting or annoying.
SHARKZ lovedJurassic Park IIIJurassic Park III is a fast-paced survival adventure where a rescue mission on a dinosaur island quickly turns into chaos. It’s intense, full of action, and keeps the pressure high the whole time with nonstop danger and escapes.

I loved this sm, the velociraptors in this where amazing. While inaccurate still amazing. I really hated mr & mrs Kirby though. What about dinosaur infested island with carnivores do they not understand?? Yelling like that?…
Sabrina Bondi lovedJurassic Park IIIAlthough shorter than its predecessors in both length and budget, the audience is not short changed. Joe Johnston does a respectable job as director, keeping the pace brisk and the action moving.

The story's tired, as are the main characters.

The ending is so absurd, in fact, that it feels like it was improvised by a committee of 6-year-olds. If the raptors truly were intelligent, they'd have eaten the final reel.

When a cell-phone gag is the most exciting or inventive thing in a big summer dinosaur movie, you have to wonder if the species might not be ready for extinction.
