  • Jurassic Park was the single biggest movie of my life, and 25 years later it still remains the best dinosaur movie ever made. With Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom on the horizon, I thought it was time to take a look back at Steven Spielberg's masterpiece and examine what makes it such a great summer blockbuster.

      Imedias Rez There is a movie that comes close to the orginial JP, that's Jurassic world. JP and JW are both the best dinosaur movies ever made, and people who say "CGI is trash", "Animatrioncs are way better" are dillusonal little kids, blinded by Nostalgia.

      GODZILLAFAN45 Yep, that clip is from Jurassic Park, the kid walking up is one of John Hammond’s grand kids Tim Murphy, and the two guys standing at the left of the Triceratops is Alan Grant and Gerry Harding. Great scene

      Awesome review - can’t believe you watched JP at the age of 4. my parents contemplated letting me watch it at 7 but then they read a newspaper review citing the scene when Genaro gets eaten. That put a sudden end to my dream! Still remember that debate from some 27 years ago like it was yesterday!

    Saw the film today. At the end there was a sign with mud on it, so it read 'urassi park'. This was when the idea of a the park had denigrated somewhat. Hadn't noticed that joke before.

    I loved your review, this is my favorite movie, and so i gave you a thumbs up. But i disagree with your criticisms of the film and I'll explain my argument. What you said about lots of plot holes, I'll let it go since I don't know which ones you're referring to. But the ones you did refer to like the Nedry character I think are bad criticisms. Let me explain the character the way he was explained to me, he is the embodiment of the Chaos Theory. The description of Chaos theory being a butterfly flapping its wings in tokyo can cause a hurricane in New York, although theoretically true, is a huge exaggeration of the practical effects of the theory. The scenes of Nedry carrying out his plot inter cut with how it effects the main group is what chaos theory actually is, he has never met them and has little to nothing to do with them, he is kept separate from the main group the whole movie and yet his actions is what starts killing them. That is true chaos theory which is the underlying theme of the movie.
    Then about the kids being annoying, they are representative of Dr. Grant emerging as a parental figure since parents have a working understanding of chaos better than anyone. Lexi using the flashlight to me seems totally plausible since they are unfamiliar with the T-rex and what it would react to. Normal animals either freeze or run away when a light is shone in their eyes so it seems fair to think they would believe the light would be good to have. But other than that yes they do make some strange decisions, but that's probably because they are scared out of their minds.
    Anyways I loved the video, keep up the good work.

    Pretty much sums up my thoughts on the film, I myself was only seven when it came out, and once the T Rex appear I was terrified. I made it through the entire film but with my hands over my eyes throughout. I also liked The Lost World, not as good as the first, but offers more than I feel most give it credit despite the many flaws.
    Seeing the dinosaurs in a more natural environment, The Stegosaurus/T Rex's protecting their young, as well as having the T-rex run amok on the mainland were all aspects not see in the previous film. The idea of life finding a way is more relevant in the sequel with the dinosaurs surviving despite being lysine deficient. I only like the first two Jurassic films, after that there really isn't much left to show, before it starts becoming overly silly.

      @@akazienoel2009 The scripts are awful, and the new trilogy is just dumb, I can't get invested in any of the new characters hence why they're bringing back characters from the first movie to get the nostalgia fanboys in the seats. If people like the new movies good for them, I'm not the target audience anymore.

    Man, when you told the story of how adults were impressed by you being able to pronounce “Pachycephalosaurus” at a young age, I lost it! Because that’s exactly how I was. I would quiz my parents’ friends on these dinosaurs when they visited. And when I asked them what the dinosaurs I showed them was called the next time they’d visit, I would tease them for not remembering. I was four years old, and all these adults would be so excited by the fact that I could spell “Pachycephalosaurus”. They thought I would go on to be some kind of scientist when I grew up. Joke’s on them, I’m just a regular schmuck.
    I was completely obsessed by dinosaurs long before I saw Jurassic Park however. I can’t even remember a time before I was a dinosaur nut. So when I actually saw that movie it was an almost religious experience for me. It was like seeing them for real and my life changed forever. Though, I was that extra bit nerdy and scorned the movie for misrepresenting the Velociraptors as bigger than they were. “They should have had the Deinonychus in the movie instead,” I complained. Man, such great memories.

    boy i remembered when first watching this movie i was legit scared when the Dilophosaurus spat on Dennis Nedry. still to this day it gives me the creeps.
    this is actually always my favorite movie before i've watched The Lord of the Rings trilogy but that big epic fantasy is on a whole other level. still, the best stand alone movie. and the book is even better, though, beware, if you cant read about blood and guts, than this is not the book for you. its a gorefest but it has its purpose. dinosaurs are still like animals, just very bloodthirsty animals. also, the book is much different than the movie and i'm glad that both the book and the movie are great on other levels.

    I’m just noticing right now how in this film every shot of Rexy, whether close or far, is from below. This is in order to make the viewer feel her size and power. This approach isn’t really used in the last few movies as strictly or effectively.

    Your story mirrors mine to a T! I also watched the movie when I was about 6 years old in the cinema with my dad and after that I wanted to become a paleontologist... I didn't but my love for dinosaurs never vanished.
    For me, Jurassic Parc is not a story about the "dangers of science" but more about "the exploitation of science through capitalism". It is a capitalist critique in a lot of ways and it hits harder the more we experience the effects of climate change.
    This film is a masterwork.
