“Jurassic Park III” Movie Review
“JP3″ Plot Summary
A decidedly odd couple with ulterior motives convince Dr. Alan Grant to go to Isla Sorna (the second InGen dinosaur lab.), resulting in an unexpected landing…and unexpected new inhabitants on the island.
This is no Jurassic Park, but a helluva lot better than The Lost World!
If you are like me, and have been following everything on Jurassic Park III for the past 5 months, you’ve probably set your expectations pretty high, and chances are, you’ll most likely be let down. In a way, I was. My expectations were pretty damn high for this film, but that was my own fault. No film could have possibly lived up to those kinds of expectations. But, the movie was everything it promised to be: A superbly crafted, action-packed, rocket of a movie. It was fast paced, and the action hardly lets up, maybe for just a few minutes for you to catch your breath, and then you’re hit right slam in the face with another dynamic action scene. The movie is only 95 minutes long, and about 75 of those minutes are nothing but thrills and scares. Yes, the movie is too short, but it’s hardly a problem. It leaves you wanting more and that is a sure sign of a great movie. Just don’t get your hopes up, thinking this is going to be as good as the first, because it isn’t. It is, however, a kick-ass special effects feast for all you hungry movie-goers out there with a taste for fine suspense thrillers…ok, I know that sounds chessey, but who cares. My grade: B+

“Face/Off” Movie Review
“Face Off” Plot Summary
A revolutionary medical technique allows an undercover agent to take the physical appearance of a major criminal and infiltrate his organization.
Wow….this one is good
This one has a tough job of convincing the audience that the main characters, Travolta and Cage, could swap faces via plastic surgery and still be convincing as one another. It works! Woo has a certain style down-the long flowing robes, slow mo shootouts, orchestral hype in the background, furious shoot outs, explosions, etc. Essentially a more stylish Bruckheimer movie if ya think about it
I have always liked the Bald guy and Gina Gershon here the most from the supporting cast, and enjoyed the way both the leads got to ‘understand’ the others’ family, way of life, friends, etc. You have to like how Castor gets Travolta’s girl to learn knife fighting, for example, or seeing the camaraderie of Cage’s group. Good shootouts and action, sometimes the conceits here are quite far flung, but you can live with that as an audience. I sure did, and so give this…*** outta ****, it’s quite good
