The first Jurassic Park movie is all time one of the greatest films ever made with the special effects still holding up to this day. The 2nd film was still very enjoyable in my opinion but it was just a cookie cutter sequel not bad, not good. The 3rd film wasnโ€™t great at all. But compared to the rest of the series the 3rd film is basically the godfather.

As another personal pick the 1st blade movie is a hood classic good. The other 2 not so much.

The problem I have with the Matrix sequels...1. they're too far up their own ass. The original was a little up its own ass but it was up the part of its own ass that mattered for the story it was telling. Reloaded and Revelations are up their whole ass. "Love is a word." ๐Ÿ™„ 2. The original is a very straightforward hero's journey in which deciding to answer the call is the ultimate key to the hero's power. The sequels are about fate and inevitability and how basically no decision can ever matter. So we're sorry to have bothered you.
