To me it felt like a bit of a letdown as compared to the first and second films.

The characters weren't that likeable. (Eric, Amanda, Paul, Udesky, Billy), and the dinosaurs weren't as realistic in most scenes.

I also didn't care for the soundtrack. It felt lacking. I personally was disapointed. The Spinosaurus was cool but I feel it should have been used differently. I would redo the T.rexs role since it was there to be killed off. I would rather have it match up with the spino then be scared away. They could have used for land scenes and have them be a threat to the people for say 15 minutes then let the spino take over after having them roar and snao at each other for say 5 minutes and have them fight for some time and have the Rex back down. Also having A PLANE ram into its sail? Thats gotta hur but nope its fine. Less sexism would be good. All amnda kirby does is scream, be an idiot and nothing else. Do the guys scream once? NOPE.

My issues

Blatant sexism and stereotypes

inaccuracies

too short

T.rex's role

Dr. Sattler was underused

Overatting the raptor but having them play a small role.

Those are my issues. It is easily the weakest of the franchise. Also how did Eric survive for so long? And I agree with mark. WHY would you break up Dr.Grant and Dr. Sattler? I mean honestly its pretty much like this. You're talking about getting married and like each other and survive dino island. Then you break up. WAT. Also Dr.Sattler is in 2 scenes when we see in the fist film she is an awesome charecter.Why did they remove her? For some dumb reason. It was a bad idea letting Joe Johtson direct the movie. I wouldn't say that JP3 is sexist for Amanda Kirby's behavior. Her screaming was pretty annoying, but it was a realistic response to being chased by giant nightmare lizards.

And yes, I was pissed over Grant and Ellie not ending up married. That was a huge fail.
