Chicago Sun-Times -
The result is not a movie that is very good, exactly, but it's entertaining and funny.

ReelViews -
This is easily the worst filmed version of anything penned by the prolific author.

The New York Times -
This glib, overheated film about vicious primates delivers little suspense, nor are there signs of the 65 cited volumes and articles that turned Mr. Crichton's book into such a learning experience.
