A fantastic action romp with a healthy dose of clichés, but surprisingly with enough chase sequences and yet again the amazing feeling of discovering creatures. Besides, 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 Steven Spielberg" Joe Johnston.

Yes, yes, action, fun, dinosaurs, great special effects... But the original magic is gone. Spielberg is simply missing from Jurassic Park. I didn't even get the feeling that the lizards were alive this time. Of the three stars, one goes to Sam Neill, one to ILM and Stan Winston, and one to the action sequences (the dinosaur fight, the Pteranodon cage).

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.

Unlike most, I was looking forward to the threequel and after watching it I am completely satisfied. The film doesn't pretend to be anything great and just showers the viewer with a lot of quality action, especially the fight of the giant dinosaurs, which is really worth seeing. It does not reach the quality of the first two parts, but it' s still a very thrilling and exciting spectacle, which will definitely not offend any lover of overgrown prehistoric lizards. The only thing I would strongly criticize the filmmakers for is the botched ending and the fact that they didn't turn the annoying Téa Leoni into raptor fodder.

I like it a bit more than the second one, mainly because this film doesn't pretend to be anything special and is almost pure B-movie, but also because Sam Neill is in it, and he's my favorite in the whole series. Moreover, there are also flying dinosaurs here, which only had a small cameo in the previous film. Bad, but not that bad.
