An efficient and surprisingly palatable finale to the Jurassic franchise. Full Review |

|
|
True, the film offers little new, but it's still stirring family entertainment... Full Review |
||
 2/5 |
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? Full Review |

|
2.5/5 |
The dinosaurs are back again, but this time without Steven Spielberg at the helm...and it shows. Full Review |

Solid B-movie fun. Full Review |

This great dinosaur of a movie is shambling towards well-merited extinction. Full Review |
||
|
3/5 |
It lacks the scale, the chills and the wonder of the original, but is more fun as a thrill ride than its sequel predecessor. Full Review |

|
3/5 |
Compared to some of this summer's blockbusters ... this is better than average. Full Review |

An all-action, helter-skelter, don't-forget-to-buy-the-computer-game ride that makes the two previous installments look like models of classic filmmaking. Full Review |
||
|
2/5 |
Spectacular but not scary or thrilling. Full Review |
||
|
2/4 |
Mr. Johnston keeps the action and one-liners coming and, before you know it, it's over. Full Review |
||
|
2/5 |
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. Full Review |
||
|
3/5 |
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.

|
1.5/5 |
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. Full Review |
||
|
1/4 |
Jurassic Park III is a blunder. Full Review |
||
|
B |
It's not art ... it's entertainment, and it knows it. Boy, does it entertain. Full Review |
||
|
6/10 |
If you're looking for a tight script, interesting three-dimensional characters and something new with this movie, you will be disappointed. Full Review |
||
|
3/4 |
For a sequel with a Roman numeral in the title, Jurassic Park III is more entertaining than expected. Full Review |
||
|
2/5 |
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 Full Review |
