I was immediately engaged with its realistic CGI effects, intriguing storyline and fun wardrobe.<\/p>\n<p>The story opens with Vanessa (Marila Lombrozo) and Jeff (Brooks Ryan) committed to making a documentary about dinosaurs. Meanwhile, a young girl, Madison (Ava Torres) and her brother Ethan (Kyle Rangel) find an egg and are pleasantly surprised by what is inside. Could it be a real dinosaur? They soon find out the answer is yes but then, the dinosaur escapes. They enlist the help of Wendy (Sophie Procter) and Mortimer (Ben Hall) to track down the dinosaur to make sure it doesn\u2019t get into the hands of the documentary team before it\u2019s too late.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-12813\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Jp3_1.3.2.jpg?resize=224%2C126&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"224\" height=\"126\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Jp3_1.3.2.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Jp3_1.3.2.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Jp3_1.3.2.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Jp3_1.3.2.jpg?w=1500&amp;ssl=1 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/>I was drawn in immediately with the realistic opening CGI. I felt like I was looking at actual dinosaurs and couldn\u2019t wait to see how the story developed. The writers created a gripping storyline where I wasn\u2019t sure what was next in the journey to find the dinosaur. \u00a0And at the same time, I couldn\u2019t stop laughing. The cast has fun on-screen chemistry and are very natural in their delivery. One of my favorite parts is the scene where they go to the theater and get in with a silly made up story. \u00a0The wardrobe really caught my eye. I love Wendy\u2019s outfits as they perfectly match her bold personality. And Madison\u2018s couture at the beginning of the movie really captures her as a caring and curious kid. There are quite a few short falls in this movie \u2013 some scenes drag on and are not truly needed for the overall storyline. Also, as the movie develops, the CGI decreases in quality and it doesn\u2019t quite live up to what it is at the beginning.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-12809 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Jp3_1.35.2.jpg?resize=220%2C124&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"220\" height=\"124\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Jp3_1.35.2.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Jp3_1.35.2.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Jp3_1.35.2.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Jp3_1.35.2.jpg?w=1500&amp;ssl=1 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 220px) 100vw, 220px\" \/>There are a few important messages in the film \u2013 nature should be preserved and animals should be handled with care at all costs. \u00a0Even when a situation seems impossible, if you work together, you can solve any problem with a little humor and fun.<\/p>\n<p><em>Jurassic<\/em> <em>Pet<\/em> <em>3<\/em> gets 3 out 5 stars from me and I recommend it for ages 8 to 12 plus adults.

Our heroes have to think quickly to keep Spike a secret from the townspeople and the film crew who want to use him in their movie. There\u2019s a lot of suspense as they try to hide him, especially when Spike gets bigger and harder to keep out of sight. The adventure really picks up when they have to figure out how to get Spike back to his world before it\u2019s too late. The idea of a dinosaur realm adds a fun twist, suggesting that dinosaurs didn\u2019t go extinct\u2014they have their own world to return to. The mystery of this hidden world keeps the adventure fresh and exciting, making it feel like you\u2019re discovering something new with the characters.

I love the CGI and how the dinosaurs are animated. The acting is quite real and expressive, especially Ava Torres as Madison. The movie is so funny, especially when the two men are interviewed. Oddly enough the scene when the car hits a man and the driver starts panicking, is hilarious.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-12820 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/jurassic-pet-3-still-4.jpg?resize=222%2C125&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"222\" height=\"125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/jurassic-pet-3-still-4.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/jurassic-pet-3-still-4.jpg?w=700&amp;ssl=1 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 222px) 100vw, 222px\" \/>The tree house scene is my favorite part because this is where the egg hatches and that is where a big chunk of comedy happens. I also like the film crew because they make the movie funnier and very interesting.<\/p>\n<p>The film\u2019s message is that even though you like something, if it does not belong here you still have to let it go.<\/p>\n<p><em>Jurassic Pet 3<\/em> gets 4 out of 5 stars from me and I recommend it for ages 8 to 12, plus adults. This movie will be available on streaming and VOD beginning November 19, 2024.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jM28xh9-Gus?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When a shy young girl and her outgoing brother come across a mysterious egg, they are shocked when a dinosaur hatches from it. When it gets loose, they have to get to it before a documentary film crew does. Along the way, they meet an older man and barista who know more about where the dinosaur came from and together, they work to get it back to its home so it won&#8217;t be exploited in our world.<br \/>\nKIDS FIRST! Film Critic Adele B. comments, \u201cJurassic Pet 3 is an entertaining family movie that kept me laughing and on my toes until the end. I was immediately engaged with its realistic CGI effects, intriguing storyline and fun wardrobe.\u201d Ariel K. adds, \u201cOne of the best things about Jurassic Pet is the adventure. It\u2019s not just about finding a dinosaur; it\u2019s about keeping Spike hidden and safe while figuring out how to get him back to his home in the dinosaur realm. Our heroes have to think quickly to keep Spike a secret from the townspeople and the film crew who want to use him in their movie. Gavin S. wraps it up with, \u201cWhat sets Jurassic Pet 3 apart is its charming portrayal of sibling dynamics and personal growth. Madison\u2019s character arc is particularly resonant; her journey from timid to courageous is beautifully depicted. The film deftly balances lighthearted moments with deeper themes of friendship and responsibility.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[4949,15],"tags":[1001,8386,8381,8384,8380,5081,1783,8385,7705,8390,1288,8389,8388,2458,8387,8378,1301,5079,8382,8393,8379,1166,6513,8391,8383,8392],"class_list":["post-12804","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-feature-film","category-feature-film-reviews","tag-adventure","tag-adventures-of-jurassic-pet","tag-ava-torres","tag-ben-hall","tag-brooks-ryan","tag-bryce-dallas-howard","tag-by-kids-for-kids","tag-cgi-animated-short-film","tag-cgi-animation","tag-chris-hoyt","tag-dinosaur","tag-fernando-alvarez","tag-jurassic","tag-jurassic-park","tag-jurassic-pet","tag-jurassic-pet-3","tag-jurassic-world","tag-jurassic-world-dominion","tag-kyle-rangel","tag-lucas-ross","tag-marila-lombrozo","tag-movie-reviews","tag-prehistoric","tag-ryan-bellgardt","tag-sophie-procter","tag-sophie-proctor"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/paS5I2-3kw","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12804","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12804"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12804\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12831,"href":"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12804\/revisions\/12831"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12804"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12804"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12804"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
