I did not know what to think when I agreed to go with some friends years ago to see "Jurassic Park III" in theaters. I thought the first one was good, but slightly overrated, and that the second one was average. Over time, I've come to elevate my view on the first film. However, out of the three, it is this third film that remains my favorite.
The plot is simple. Sam Neill's Dr. Grant character is lured back to the island by a couple who's kid is stranded there. The film is fast, the dialogue stays on course, there is just enough room to segue into side plots without overdoing it, and everyone seems to be rolling along. William H. Macy and Tea Leoni are fine as the couple looking for their kid, and Alessandro Nivoli is also good as Billy, Dr. Grant's protégé here.
The film doesn't ask you to think, but manages to keep your attention. There are plenty of dinosaurs to go round. If you want a fairly fast-paced action flick that deals with dinos, this is a good choice.
