EhFirst one's all right. Second one's a bit crap, no idea about the third one as the copy I got from the video shop went all fuzzy about halfway through.
Most annoying thing is how Crichton wrote the second book to accomodate the changes they made in the film of the first one - Dickie Attenborough and Jeff Goldblum died in the first book but are both miraculously alive in the second.

I was too "young teenage girl-ish" to want to see it when it first came outAnd I've just not been bothered to watch it since.
A bit rubbish that Crichton did that. Everyone knows that books don't follow films and vice versa. (Except for very odd occasions)

I can sort of see why he did it after they cast Goldblum as the lead in part twobut at the same time it makes for a very unsatisfying read with all the hand-waving "he was very ill but got better" stuff

"Then there'll be all this running and screaming."
The trailer really got my hopes up for the sequel, but oh what a disappointment it was.

The bit where Goldblum's inexplicably black daughter does the gymnastics to beat the velociraptors killed it for meYou can literally hear the film dying during that scene
