The third in the Jurassic Park franchise released in 2001 which was the first not to be based on a Michael Crichton novel but heavily borrowed scenes from his first two Jurassic novels. Directed by Joe Johnston, this was also the first Jurassic Park film not to be directed by Steven Spielberg though he did give Johnston his blessing for the movie and even stayed on as executive producer. The film follows the return of Dr. Alan Grant, played by Sam Neil, in hopes of helping a few tourists on a tour of a dinosaur filled island only to find out he was grifted into a rescue mission.
