What a fantastic film. Spielberg showed he could deliver yet another popular film after classics such as E.T.,Jaws & Raiders of the Lost Ark. The CGI dinosaurs look very real & still look outstanding even by today's standards. (Rememer this was 1993 when this came out) Great acting by the likes of Sam Neil & Sir Richard Attenborough. Take a bow Jeff Goldblum who steals the show with his own unique style. One of the greatest films ever made. Shame the sequels weren't as good.
One of the most pivotal films of the 90's, and arguably of modern cinema, this monster movie gave a terrifying and exciting insight into how Dinosaurs lived, and how they would 'adapt' 65 million years after their extinction. A full on action film that will leave you on the edge of your seat. You won't forget the raptors....
Forget 5 star. more like ............

its so old now but still looks realistic. its still my favourite film. nothing after had been as good for story and excitement. raptors in the kitchen and the t rex escaping still continue to impress me. if you havent seen this film, where have you been
On it's cinema release back in the summer of 1993, The movie left you spellbound, as Spielberg brought these majestic creatures back to life after 65 million years.
Based very loosley on the book, the film is a great rollercoaster ride, but lurking under the wow factor you now see the faults that you could hardly see in 93, due to there had been nothing like it seen before. The films plot is thin and the characters a under written. The kids are good and never irritate, Sam Neil is excellent. But Richard attembourgh accent is all over the place, drifting from Scottish to South African.But these are minor faults and are soon forgotten when the Creatures get hungry. The T REX attack is still scary as hell, and the raptors still thrill.
This is Spielberg doing what he does best by pleasing the crowds,The film was a milestone in the leap forward for special effects, and for all the advancements with the effect, the film does not have the power of Spielbergs 1975 monster classic Jaws !
My favourite film of all time

When i first saw this film i was quite young and watched it on tv and it mostlry terrified me and i watched it every year over the christmas holidays when it was shown and there are some things that you cant deny about this film. firstly it has groundbreaking CGI which even by todays standards are still good, the effects used really bring the dinosaurs to life. It also has all the great elements needed for a film action, drama, sci-fi, suspense, comedy and it is most importantly thrilling. In short this film is nothing short of a masterpiece and if you like it which you should then I urge you to read the bok which is even better.
My Favourite Film of All Time!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is, hands-down, the greatest film to be made in the history of human kind.
I am going to be honest with you, the first time I saw this film was when it had just been released in the cinema. I sat in the front row with the rest of my family (I would like to state that I was quite young when this film was released) and I swear to God that my hands were covering my eyes for 90% of the film. I was terrified!!! To me this wasnt a film I was watching, it was real. Those dinosaurs were real and they were eating people right in front of me!!!
But thats why I love this film, I was scared to death but I couldnt help peek through my fingers to watch the film. Even to this day I still get chills when I watch the T-Rex scene.
The film is amazing. It was one of the first films to use CGI to its major advantage and the visuals still stand up to todays CGI.
This film is all about the dinosaurs, even though the cast is very strong, its the T-Rex and the Velociraptors that really prevail.
With a beautiful score, amazing visuals, brilliant story and Steven Spielberg at the helm this film tops my charts and if there is anybody out there; young, old, etc, who has not yet seen this film, I urge you to see it.
Its the BEST!!!!
Back in 1993 the concept of CGI was a relatively new one. That was why, when audiences sat down to watch Jurassic Park the combined sound of millions of jaws hitting the ground echoed throughout the world! The term 'movie magic' is one that is possibly used too much these days and so has perhaps lost its true meaning. Back in '93, when I set eyes upon the first dinosaur sighting, the huge brontosaurus rearing up on its hind legs, I was in no doubt that Spielberg (and the FX guys) were masters of the art - modern day magicians of quite extraordinary talent. Even the 'science' was fascinating, though simplified from the original book, and suddenly dinosaurs became cool all over again. I could easily take or leave the two sequels, they did nothing to particularly expand on an already perfect original, and the rumours of a fourth outing has my 'overkill' light flashing in my brain. But the original is a classic, and though the technology is all over the place today - from cinema to television - Jurassic remains the grandaddy of all dinosaur movies...

















PARK LIFE !
