Bad way to finish the trilogy
Jurassic Park III is one of the worst films that I have seen this year. This movie has just about sealed the fate of the Jurassic Park franchise. I didn't expect the movie to be as good as the first Jurassic Park but this movie can't even compare to the disappointed sequel The Lost World. Even though The Lost World wasn't too bad of a movie, it wasn't the best of Steven Spielberg's work. Jurassic Park 3 even falls below par of The Lost World.
The story takes place a 4 years after the events of The Lost World. Sam Neill returns to take the role of Dr. Alan Grant who has just about returned back to his old life. That is until he is approached by a couple Paul and Amanda Kirby. They trick him into joining their crew to look for their son who was lost over the island of Isla Sorna (The second island) during a paragliding accident.
Soon enough, things turn bad and Dr. Alan Grant once again has to keep himself and his peers alive from the horrors of the island. The storyline is pretty weak and the movie doesn't explain anything else about InGen's experiment, the only thing this movie has in common with the first two movies is the characters and setting.
The thrill hardly reached a climax and was a bad excuse at throwing scenes to scary the audience. The special effects didn't improve on what we have already seen in the previous films. The role of the Spinosaurus didn't live up to the hype and besides the scenes with the Raptors, there isn't much expose on other dinosaurus. As I mentioned early, the storyline is weak and it was just about them trying to escape off the island (been done before in Jurassic Park) and along the way being thrown with lame action.
Joe Johnston has done a terrible job at directing this film and I have no idea why the producers would want to make another Jurassic Park after The Lost World, this movies is all about milking all the money possible out of the Jurassic Park franchise. At least they could have given us a more memorable movie that this. It started with a bad note and finished with a bad note, not a movie that you would want to watch, even if your a Jurassic Park fan.
