Great Film: Jurassic Park
A Groundbreaking, Heart Stomping, Dino Sized film
In the year 1993, Hollywood saw something unlike anything else, the
film Jurassic Park. Never before 1993 had dinosaurs been so
breathtaking and realistic on the silver screen.
The plot is very original. A group of scientists cloned dinosaurs, and
are about to open an amusement park where people can see the dinosaurs.
The creator John Hammond(Richard Attenborough) invites a group of
people, along with his grandchildren, to see the dinos and enjoy a
relaxing time at the park. Could anything go wrong, at the time it
doesn't seem like it, but something else is going on. Employee Dennis
Nedry is planning to steal dinosaur embryos. In order to do this, he
causes a security breakdown so he can get the embryos and escape. He
isn't the only one that can escape, as hungry dinos also escape. After
this, everyone on the island is in danger, and loose dinosaurs are
everywhere. That is where the fun in Jurassic Park comes in.
This is an underrated movie according to the IMDb ratings. It isn't
even in the top 250. Today, people don't appreciate it as much, mainly
due to the fact that other movies like it have been made. Growing up in
the 90's, this was one of my favorite movies. As a kid, I only watched
it to see the dinosaurs, as I didn't understand a whole lot of it.
Today, I realize how great the plotting and suspense are.
This spawned two sequels. The second one wasn't bad, but the third
wasn't very good. I would recommend seeing the second after this, but
the third is passable.
The story is great, how at first we see how the magic was created, and
then later we see the magic turn into a disaster, in which everyone's
life is at stake.
The special effects are still good today, but they were revolutionary
for back in 1993. The acting is good, and the ensemble cast is great.
All of the action sequences are perfectly executed, creating plenty of
suspense and tension.
Younger kids may get scared by this, as I remember a lot of young kids
being scared by it in 1993. If kids aren't scared by dinosaurs, they
will probably enjoy the movie.
I highly recommend Jurassic Park. It is quite underrated in my opinion,
it deserves more credit than it gets.
Watch this at all costs if you have somehow missed it and see what
everyone was amazed about back in 1993.
