Product Description
Additional Features
You could call this collector's edition "How to Build a Better Dinosaur Movie." The "making-of" overview, a general overview for the casual viewer, just scratches the surface of this virtual dinosaur dig. "A Visit to ILM" takes the viewer step by step through the digital effects process, from concept to completed film, and "A Tour of Stan Winston's Studio" shows the construction of models and full-sized dinosaurs in a brief montage. Three "Behind the Scenes" featurettes pull back the curtain to illustrate the marriage of physical effects and digital animation with the performers. Once you've sampled the documentaries, switch on the film's commentary and review the film with four of the film's effects engineers as they discuss their handiwork in a revealing shot-by-shot dissection. Their pride in the work is palpable, and deservedly so. Paleontologists are using these animated creatures as working models in modern dinosaur research. --Sean Axmaker

Pretty good.,
By RICK "rdthomp17" (Somewhere) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jurassic Park III: Collector's Edition (Widescreen) (DVD)
No, Michael Crichton did not write a book before this movie was made, and it shows.This movie was all about action, and there wasn't much science stuff involved. The story is pretty simple, and there were some wacky part in this movie. The raptors were radically changed; now they have feathers pointing out of their heads, there heads were a bit longer, and some part of them near their heads is PURPLE AND BLUE. I AM NOT JOKING. It looks dumb, and takes away from the movie. When I saw it, I'm just like, "What the crap is that??" Weird. Another thing, the second movie was on Isla Sorna, and there was no sightings or mention of a Spinosaurus. Don't get me wrong, the Spinosaurus is my fave dinosaur in the JP series. That just seemed weird. All in all, a great movie. A ton of fun, and it rocks. Buy the whole JP series, trust me, you'll like every single one!!!!

I GIVE IT ONE STAR BECAUSE ITS A SHORT MOVIE AND YOU DONT HAVE TO WAIT ALONG TIME FOR IT TO BE OVER.

Throw-outs of the two previous and thats all.,
By Fernando Castillo (Canary Islands (Spain)) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jurassic Park III: Collector's Edition (Widescreen) (DVD)
The story begins when an adventurous married couple manage to persuade Grant (Sam Neil, who had already appeared in the first part), a palaeontologist that still continues his studies about prehistoric animals, in order to be him the one who will lead them in Sorna island, which is the last refuge for some revived dinosaurs by a scientist years ago. They actually want to find their lost child, but the plane crashes, so they are in danger, because the dinosaurs are everywhere, and this time, they are intelligent and have the capacity to communicate with each other. The group splits up in a moment, in which the boy finally appears, but they run up against the awful dinosaurs and they will have many problems from now to then.This is the third part of the saga started by Steven Spielberg, and is undoubtedly the worst. When I saw it, I didn't get scared in any moment; because of the regrettable performance the actors did, above all, Téa Leoni's. They never seemed to be really shocked with the entire situation. Besides, all was so predictable and boring: the very forced crashing of the plane, the hunt, and the way they escape at the end. The special effects were nothing extraordinary, and the script looks to be written in a couple of minutes. In addition, its short length proves their effort at making this pitiful movie that is completely lacking of any good ideas. I don't understand why was so successful.
