Jurassic Park III

So it's been a while (sorry). I was finally able to get Danielle to watch the finale of the Jurassic Park Trilogy in anticipation of Jurassic World. Anyway, if you haven't seen The Lost World and Jurassic Park III since you were a kid, you probably think The Lost World is the better film of the two. But, if you've watched them recently, you'll know that this is the better one. Yes, it has some stupid moments (Raptor talking in dream, kid somehow getting T-Rex pee, kid somehow not only surviving but thriving for 8 week, just the kid in general), but once you get past them, you find a fun little film. This greatly benefits from the return of Alan Grant (Sam Neill) as well as the awesome addition of William H. Macy. We find Grant still trying to put his professional life back together, trying to justify the existence of paleontologists now that John Hammond has brought Dinosaurs back to life. Unsurprisingly, he's finding it very hard to find funding so when William H. Macy's character offers him $$$ to be the tour guide on a fly-over tour of Isla Sorna, he's pretty much forced to say yes. Well, as you might've figured, that shit goes awry fast. They land on the island and all hell breaks loose. I honestly will never get sick of seeing dinosaurs on screen, and this movie does a great job in showing off a few new ones. The Ankylosaurus and Pteranodon are present along with the new BMFer Spinosaurus. Though the Spinosaurus is cool, I'd probably have preferred if they had stayed with the T-Rex. Either way, I could have done without the cheesy scene early on in the movie in which the Spinosaurus kills the T-Rex to prove its dominance. Anyway, this is a fun movie with great music and a great cast. Temper your expectations and there's no reason why you shouldn't give this a watch.
