Jurassic Park
Released: 1993
Fantasy, Sci-fi
Director: Steven Spielberg
Starring: Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum
Running Time: 127 minutes
Rated: PG-13
The breakdown: A wondrous new theme park is about to open that has real live dinosaurs. Unfortunately, while some of the most respected dinosaur bone experts are there with the owners grandchildren, a terrible storm hits the secluded island and knocks out power. This allows the extremely deadly predators out of their cages and the human beings have to find a way to stay alive.
I went on opening day to go see this film and waited in line for hours in the hot Arizona summer sun because I was that excited. It didn't disappoint me. The special effects were awesome, the story was entertaining, well thought out, funny at times, and scary at others, it was one of the best films I had seen to date. It's still one of my favorites and recommend anyone see it who hasn't yet.
An eccentric, and very optimistic but foolish older man decides that after finding dino dna suspended and preserved in a piece of amber that they should grow live dinosaurs. He builds a theme park/zoo for people to come visit called Jurassic Park on an isolated tropical island. Before opening it to the public he invites his two young grandchildren, scientists, and dino experts to come check it out. He keeps it a secret until the last minute what they are all doing there so the moment they see live dinosaurs it's pretty amazing. While a big storm is getting ready to hit the island, there's also someone who wants to steal some dino dna samples and sell them for a big payday. You must see the movie to see how it all goes, but it's a very good story.
4 and 1/2 out of 5 for fantastic imagination and special effects, as well as a hot looking Jeff Goldblum delivering some very funny lines.
A final note about this movie. There at least 2 other sequels to this movie and they are both terrible. If you ever thought about seeing the other 2, DO NOT, I repeat, DON'T do it. They are so unlike the first one. There's none of the magic, wonder, or good plot that the first one has. Maybe the books are better, but I haven't read any of them.
