    Visual effects would never have broken through without this movie, which is Spielberg's best adventure since the first "Indiana Jones" movie.

    Jurassic Park is probably the best 'creature feature'/'Blockbuster' since Jaws, which was obviously bought to us by the same beard. Spielberg doing what he does best with brilliant special effects that are still as good if not better than in recent films and a fantastic cast. One...( read more) of my favourite cinema experiences!

    Holy shit, Sam Jackson is in this movie. Auto Erotica. Jeff's douche-ey sexiness, the children's stupidity, and the ridiculous events of JP never occurred to me in my adolescence. Although the outright awesomeness of the movie makes me love this damn movie still! Hold onto your b...( read more)utts!

    A landmark film in special effects, but also a great adventure story.
  • January 5, 2009
    Very good. It does have its rizzo moments, but overall, very good. Not to mention good special effects for its time.

    Im a huge JP fan. It is truely my all time favourite movie. I was born in '95 and my brother who is 6 years elder, loved watching it, so i grew up watching the film, but after he was about..10 he stopped watching but to this day I still love JP. Its a movie you can never get bored of, and never get tired of seeing. The book is fantastic, i read it so many times, because its just too hard to put down!

    I'm a huge JP fan and felt that this most be one of the best novel-based films of all time. The screenplay is co-written by the author of the book (Michael Crichton) directed by the famous Steven Spielberg, and has an all-star cast of characters. I guarantee to anyone who hasn't seen this movie, that you will heartly enjoy this film. And If you want to get the full JP experience (or a better one) read the amazing best-selling book and learn the secrets of Jurassic Park that Steve didnt want you to know about! Not to mention the differnent story line...
