It’s not brilliant, it’s rather predictable, but it’s ok; it bowls along nicely and it does make you jump. What more can you ask of dinosaurs?

It lacks the scale, the chills and the wonder of the original, but is more fun as a thrill ride than its sequel predecessor.

Compared to some of this summer's blockbusters ... this is better than average.

Much darker than the previous films, this third installment feels more like a horror flick set in amusement park than a good sci-fi adventure, though special effects, due to technology advances, are more sophisticated.

As seqüências de ação são boas, mas não o bastante para que ignoremos a fragilidade do roteiro, com seus péssimos diálogos e os personagens esquemáticos.

It might as well be the crappy pilot for a Jurassic Park TV series or a feature version of Sid and Marty Krofft's Land of the Lost.

If you're looking for a tight script, interesting three-dimensional characters and something new with this movie, you will be disappointed.

For a sequel with a Roman numeral in the title, Jurassic Park III is more entertaining than expected.

Milking a Brontosaurus would be easier than milking this franchise any more . . . This pointless sequel is a tepid end (if there is a God) to the series

People who go to see Jurassic Park III are not there for character development, they want cool-looking dinosaurs, and that they will get in spades.
