Jurassic Park 3
Paleontologist Alan Grant (Sam Neill) has sworn never to return to Jurassic Park. But he needs funding for his research, so when a wealthy thrill-seeking couple (William H. Macy and Tea Leoni) come calling, Grant and his protegee, Billy (Alessandro Nivola), agree to take them on a sightseeing flight. By the time Grant finds out what their true purpose is--to land on the island and search for their missing son--all of their lives are in peril. And Grant's newfound theory about Raptor intelligence will have its deadly proof.
Joe Johnston was the right director to take over Steven Spielberg's JURASSIC PARK series. He's experienced with special effects, having worked on the STAR WARS films, while his OCTOBER SKY demonstrates his skill at telling an emotionally involving tale. In JURASSIC PARK 3, with the help of a top-notch technical team and a talented cast (who began filming before the script was finished, improvising much of their dialogue), and a new dinosaur, Spinosaurus, that makes even T-Rex nervous, Johnston has fashioned a rousing adventure with state-of-the-art visuals. Clocking in at a tense 92 minutes, it's the fastest-moving, most action-packed film of the series.

Hectic chase movie that, jettisoning the slight intellectual content of the first two movies, concentrates on shocks and thrills, which it delivers efficiently.

[Highly rated reviewer]
superb..................
this film is superb. it stars Sam Neill, Tea Leoni and William H. Macy, in this last Jurassic Park film in the trilogy set.
Paleontologist Alan Grant has sworn never to return to Jurassic Park. (Ellie is married with a young son called Charlie, but she and Alan Grant are still very close.) As before Alan still needs funding for his research, so when a wealthy thrill-seeking couple call on him, Alan and his assistant, Billy, agree to take them on a sightseeing flight.
By the time Alan Grant finds out what their true purpose is, which is to land on the island and search for their missing son, all of their lives are in great danger.
And also Alan Grant's newfound theory about Raptor intelligence will have its deadly proof in this adventure.
A new dinosaur also makes an appearance called the Spinosaurus, which would give a T-Rex a run for its money.
this film is the fastest-moving, most action-packed film of the series.
well worth renting out. -

Crap!
What a load of rubbish!! I loved Jurassic Park, they should have left alone and never made these sequals. The dinosaurs dont even look real anymore, the special effects are not what they used to be.

Hairy times for Wolf Man movie
- 30 Jul 2009
The Wolf Man's growl is turning into a whimper - the movie's release date has been pushed back for the fourth time. The highly-anticipated movie, starring Benicio del Toro as a cursed werewolf, was first slated to hit cinemas in 2007, but was postponed after a problem in securing a director. Video auteur Mark Romanek was set to helm the film, but dropped out after stating the £66 million budget wasn't enough to finance his vision. Jurassic Park III boss Joe Johnston subsequently took over. Read more
