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.

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.

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.

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.

Relatively decent entertainment that doesn't pretend to be an action blockbuster because it's not. It's the shortest, least extravagant, but possibly also the most dynamic. We are introduced to a truly blessed amount of dinosaurs, with the two largest ones practically at the beginning. The action is quite imaginative, occasionally too focused on the visual effects, but it can be endured. It's not Spielberg's grandeur, but this time it doesn't matter. Sam Neill is equally good, and the others have nothing to be ashamed of. The third time around, the fun is slightly exhausted, but for a single watch? Why not.
