I believe this is how another reviewer summed up this film.
I just watched it with my children after having watched Jurassic Park with them last week.
What a lousy movie to have to sit through.
I'm told that Jurassic Park III is the worst of the bunch. If so, I'll have to skip it and go straight to Jurassic World.
I can only assume you misunderstand the meaning of the word pretentious. You put the disc in the player and turn off your brain for two hours. This is the complete opposite of pretentious.
I've had a lot of sobering thoughts in my time Del Boy, it's them that started me drinking!
Haha... no. Not a good excuse when quote unquote heroes who are supposed to be promoting a green message are actually the cause for all the death and mayhem.

Who made an excuse? Who said there was a message? Goodness, Americans take things way too seriously!!! No wonder everyone hates them.

You know when typing, you can just type quotes. There's no need to write out quotes.

Consider the daffodil. And while you're doing that I'll be over here looking through your stuff.
This movie is effin horsesh!t. Jurassic Park III is bad but better than this. Jurassic World is nearly as stupid as this, but at least it's entertaining.
Pretentious is pretty much exactly what this movie is... besides crap.

I agree III is only slightly better. Jurassic World beats both II and III by a couple miles.

No, Jurassic Park III is actually a significant improvement over The Lost World.
No more ridiculous scenes of a T-rex rampaging through a city or holding a t-rex baby hostage, lol. III feels more closer to the original.
Also the scenes in III with the Pterodactylus birds are awesome and shouldn't be missed.

JPIII gets flak because it's not Spielberg
Do you behave like this in real life as well?
You must be such a joy to have a conversation with ...
You might very well think that. I couldn't possibly comment.
Jurassic Park 3 gets flak cause its a terrible film.
Spare the whole "Because it's Spielberg" crap cause it's B.S and you know it.
Terrible why? Not enough cool looking G.I. Joe vehicles?
No t-rex rampaging through a city? No token black girl to add to the diversity?
The fact that The Lost World was directed by Spielberg makes it like ten times worse.
The sequel was definitely a poop stain on Spielberg's film career.
You mean like the talking raptor on a airplane, a dumb down Alan Grant, a phone ringing from inside the belly of a huge dinosaur and jungle boy with his annoying parents from Jurassic Park 3
It really annoys me when people come onto a board to whine and complain about a celebrity or a movie or whatever. I just don't get why you'd waste your time to come here to do just that. You didn't like the movie? Who the hell cares? In my honest opinion it was alright. I definitely didn't like the 3rd one, mostly because I couldn't stand Tea Leonie, but that's beside the point. I just think that your post is waste of my time.
shareTo be honest this one is as bad as the really bad parts of 3. I wouldn't turn my hand over for the difference. I think this one gets less of a bad rap merely because Spielberg directed it. This movie is terrible and yes, I saw it in the theater and thought it sucked then too.
shareI wish people would stop using the word pretentious when they don't know what it means.
pretentious, adjective. (Of person, book, speech, etc.) making claim to great merit or importance; ostentatious.

I post a definition because other posters have assumed you don't know what it means but they obviously didn't read your opening sentence
