Goofs:

Continuity: The computer-generated Spinosaurus does not correspond with the practical version in terms of size. Compare the shots practical version holding Nash (the black mercenary) in its jaws to the shot of the computer-generated version trapping him under its foot and delivering the final bite. The CG creature looks nearly twice as big as the practical one in that shot.

Quotes:

[first lines]
Enrique Cardoso: Here you go, my friend.
Ben Hildebrand: Make sure you get as close as you can! I'll give you something extra if you make it a good trip!
Enrique Cardoso: Hey, I'm gonna get you close, my friend, but not too close, eh. You don't want to be eaten.

I just saw Jurassic Park 3

Before I went to see this movie I read a bunch of reviews. I dont think I read one good thing about it. But to be honest it wasnt that bad. Sure it definatly wasnt better than the original, but it wasnt horrible. True, it wasnt something I would go back and see right away, but if you liked the first two, its something to see just for fun. The only thing I hated about this movie, had to do with the T-Rex. I wont blow it, but to be honest the T-Rex scene was one of my favorites. You will just have to see it to know what I am talking about. Well, to keep this short: Give it a chance.
