3 out of 5 stars Critter s 3 tame but still dangerous   April 8, 2004
J. P. Suhr (Austin, TX United States)
Fist the terrorized a farm. then they over ran the town of Grovers Bend. Now they have moved up into an apartment. This was and okay film. It was not as good as the first to. Don Opper retuns as charlie. This has the less gore of the 4th movies. A very low death count only 2 people die in this one.

Things I like the cystal Charle gives the boy glows when there in danger. Lenoard De Caprio looks interesting in this film. This porbably was his first movie to star in. Not as successfull as the other films he wasin but still pretty good.

Just like in critter 1 ans 2 the krites apperance has been altered. It has some fun parts in it. There is this part is really fun when Josh Lenadord Dicapro goes with his father to evict the people living in the apartment.

After he shuts of the power he hears the sound of a televesion. He goes to investigate. This part of the movie I think wassupposed to be a rip of off the part in Gremlins when the Gremlins are watching Snow white. The Krites are watching a thing one a batter powered t.v about how to pre pare chicken.

It get real intense near the end especial when the apart catchs one fire. The fire is caused by one of the Krites that died by shallowing a flare. This is similiar to a gag that was in the first one where one of the Krites swallows a lit fire cracker.

The little boy I adormal. At the end of the movie the dad and grows real cllose tohis shown and daughter. They apolize for they way they have treated each other. Pretty good movie.

Here what they could have done tomkae it better. Gaving Charlie a larger rule, put more gore in it. Brought bradly brown back again have put ug in it. Ug you do not see again until the last one or credits of 3 if you choose to watch them. I will and alway will like critters. I own all four on VHS.

I am planning of buying them on DVD so I can watch them more frequently. Crittes series is great but Vhs were out real quickly if you watch then alot. I will and always will like critters.


3 out of 5 stars OK movie, but starts the downfall for the critter series.   March 18, 2004

Ok, first off let me just start off by saying there is a whole lot more to this movie than Leonardo DiCaprio, infact, I am ashamed to own this movie because he is in it, anyways this movie is pretty good if you like the critter series, its even a bit scary at times. The only reason why i don't like this movie is because it just doesn't follow the rest of them. but if you like the critter series go for this movie! it really isn't all that bad!


2 out of 5 stars not good like the first two   February 8, 2004
Movie Dude
As you may know there are some B movies that consist of pointless sequels. There are also B movies that after a sequel, the series takes a nose dive. This is the category that Critters 3 falls into. First off, I realize that B movies are not to be taken serious to some degree but this movie went over the boundary line in that department. Critters 3 takes a break from the plot of the first two (Superman 3, anyone?) but that doesn't ruin the movie. In fact, the only returning character is Charlie. And folks, if you want to see this movie just because Leo Decaprio is in it then you are making a mistake. His acting is not enough to save this film. Anyway, one viewer pointed out some obvious plot holes such as Charlie becoming sheriff at the end of Critters 2 which is completely ignored in this movie. Come to think of it, I don't think Critters 3 even took place in Grover's Bend, Kansas (the same as the first two). Also, there were some critter eggs that just happen to appear under a man's truck that are unknowingly taken to an appartment complex in which later on the critters start to wreck havoc all over the place. Critters finishes with a "to be continued" ending. Critters 3 & 4 were filmed back to back just incase anyone was wondering though make no mistake... you really don't have to see this movie to understand what is happening in Crittes 4. Yes, that's right. As far as I'm concerend it would be better to go on to Critters 4 after watching Critters 2. Critters 3 is a direct-to-video film and for those who still want to see it, you will find out why.


2 out of 5 stars The ok Critter movie!   October 19, 2003
Critters 3 I thought wasnt as good as they said because they didnt do some real action.When I frist saw the movie it was the first critters movie I saw so I thought it was pretty good,but when I got 1,2,and 4 I didnt think it was that good of a Critters movie.Besides what happened when Charlie got the Cherif duty in the secound one and he's not the Cherif of Groversbend in the third?When Charlie gave that kid a crystal and it would glow if there was trouble and it didnt when there wasnt , that was like something that didnt even need to be in the movie.Afterall I guess it is an ok critters movie but some things I just think are just plain stupid.


5 out of 5 stars Critters 3 is a must for all Krite fans!!!   May 26, 2003
I am a HUGE Critters fan and this is the honest truth: Critters 3 may be the best of the four movies made in the Critters series. I loved every bit of it. The Krites (a.k.a. Critters) are better than all of the older ones by how realistic they were in my oppinion, and they gave most of them personalities. My favorite Krite was the one who rolled in bleach and the upper half of his left side became white. He was the smartest Krite. He was also the last Critter standing in the end. I only had two minor problems with the movie. When Josh (Leonardo DiCaprio) is explaining to Annie why he was at the appartment, he says "...We came here to evict you," then he turns around and says, "pretty awful, huh?" Now that's not the problem. It's what Annie says next that I have a problem with. All she says is, "Ya..." What the heck? All you can say is 'ya'? Why not, "It's O.K.", or "Well, you didn't make the choice, so I can't blame you," I mean, even "What?" or "Why?" would have given Josh a chance to explain. Make the poor kid feel even worse! "Ya, that is an awful thing," maybe it was, but still... The other thing was in the end Ug says that Charlie can't kill the last two eggs if it means total extintion. In the second one the grand master alien giving the bounty hunters orders says that they need to be terminated. All well, I'm just picky, so maybe no one else minds. I don't really care, I just find it slightly annoying. I still love the movie, even its minor flaws. I hope that they someday make a movie where the Critters finally do win. SOMEDAY THE KRITES WILL PREVAIL!!!! All in all, I'd say that the Critters movies are possibly the best movies ever in past, present, and future. Definitly a must buy for all movie lovers!
