Found it quite poor, and I enjoyed the fists two chapters, at least in the big screen.
However, I found three interesting things:
1) The Jurassic Park franchise is definitely entering B-movie territory. Just compare cast, budget and running time with the other films.
2) William H. Macy asking Sam Neill to write ANY number on the check was a nice detail, specially considering what we learn about the character later.
3) Tea Leoni's bra. And Laura Dern looked great as well.
I agree. I sincerely believe this movie licked serious ass. I really didn't like how quickly the T-Rex was killed. How lame.
I thought it was a great little b-movie ride. As far as the wasting of the T-Rex, I thought is was a nice little jolt to introduce the new bad ass dino on the block (besides, as the filmmakers noted, the first two movies had had the characters getting chased by T-Rexes and that, this time around, it would seem old hat and ho-hum). Short and to the point and really, really b-movie programmer at heart.
Dang, I'll probably be watching it again real soon.
As a b-movie, it definitely makes it. We have the cell phone gimmick to enjoy. Plus, there was evidence of extreme intelligence among the raptors:
"See, if you put out the humanssss dead body the otherssss will come."
"Ssss, ssss. You are a geniussss!"
I could have done without the annoying Newt clone though. What, I am not supposed to figure out where that came from?
I find it funny that it's been seven years since the oiginal JP and the visual effects actually got worse. The whole thing felt like a TV movie that had been edited down. It goes by fast and ends before it even picks up.
The third movie was my least favorite of the three. I didn't like the new main dinosaur since it had no basis in reality. I didn't like that they had two different types of raptors (head spines & no head spines) and that they could talk to each other. (I didn't like it in Aliens either). It was more of a monster movie rather than a film with prehistoric animals.
So....Chadzilla, guys.
Did You happen to think "Angilus" when you got a good look at the Spinosaure?
That jaw, that head....looks pretty suspect to me!
Holy return key...I can make paragraphs now! Yea!
As far as this one goes, and the rest of the trilogy, I hate Steven Spielberg, I like the first one and these two were good on the big screen but loose it on the small one. I take the Carnosaur trilogy over this.
