Pros: GREAT special effects, sound, visuality, suspense, and fun DVD extras. Cons: Not the best acting ever, but that's to be expected with such a movie.
Jurassic Park is one of those movies that everyone has to see and own. It is one of the greatest movie experiences ever! And to own it on DVD and have access to all the excitement in your own home is truly amazing!
This movie...

Pros: SFX and the action Cons: First 20 mins or so are a little slow
I love this movie, I could watch it 100 times and I will love it as much as I did the first time. Although I will not be jumping as high out of my seat as before.
The basis of JP is about a guy, Dr. Hammond, played by Richard Attonburough,...

Pros: Ground-breaking special effects. Cons: Not much for the humans to do.
I actually paid to see JURASSIC PARK twice in the theater which I don't do very often anymore. Most films don't deserve my patronage once, never mind twice, but Spielberg created something with this film that audiences had never seen before - dinosaurs...

Pros: different from your typical film- good CG and soundtrack Cons: overhyped- won't be remembered for the right reasons...
This was the first film of the 1990s which lived up to the hyperbole. Thankfully, it generated more revenue than Spielburg's own "E.T." which was the reigning highest grossing movie ever since its release in 1982. Jurassic Park was a hit both...

Pros: Great computer animation, good acting in some parts Cons: Mediocre by action film standards
If you're a dinosaur buff like I am, this movie is a must own. The computer-generated graphics and new theories about warm-blooded, smart dinos became commonplace through this movie. But aside from that, it's a pretty good action movie.

Pros: Good computer-animated dinosaurs, good action scenes with T. rex Cons: Boring characters, no attachment or involvement with them.
As is probably true with any prolific author whose works are routinely transferred to the screen, some adaptations are better than others. That's certainly true for Michael Chrichton's works; "Jurassic Park" is a fair movie, but it's not...

Pros: Historic Special Effects achieved Cons: Poor Plot and lack of character development
Jurassic Park SCREAMS out to you, Steven....."I COULD HAVE BEEN SOMEBODY"! Now, I know that all the DinoFans out there will have a royal cow, but frankly, without the bigger than life special effects, what else did this film have to offer. I...

Pros: Great special effects and all star casting Cons: None
This movie has it all, great special effects, a great plot and an even better character casting. I read the book before I saw the movie, and I still loved the movie, although it swayed quite a bit from the books story line. I still remember the way my...

Pros: Awesome Dinosaurs, Good Acting, Clever Dialog and Good Character Interaction. Cons: If you read the book first, you might be disappointed, nearly everyone who died lives and vice versa (or so it seems!)
While it may have become fashionable to bash this movie, it is one of my personal favorites. Sam Neil, Laura Dern and Richard Attenbourough give fine performances, but to me, the star of the film was Jeff Goldblum... and obviously the producers thought...

Pros: nothng Cons: nothing i mean
My ears are still ringing and my head is still swimming from the experience I had last night: I saw Steven Spielberg's JURASSIC PARK. The movie of the year, the ads call it, with dinosaurs so life-like you won't believe they're real. There hasn't been...

Pros: Great adventure, action and plot Cons: Not so great acting
I never saw this movie in the theatre and I am very regretful that I didn't. However even at home with the sound turned up I was still taken aback by the realness of the dinosaurs. Nothing looked animated or fake in the slightest sense.

Pros: realistic, gets the blood moving. Cons: may be too much for the kiddies. Nightmares....
This movie has the special effects that I sat in front of the movie screen absolutely captivated by the realness of the dinosaurs. Steven Spielberg truly is the supreme director. He has managed to make just about any movie fly.

Pros: Dynamite effects Cons: Rotten acting
Three-and-a-half years ago, I reviewed this film and slapped it with a four-star rating, the highest honor I’ll dole out. I saw it twice in the theater and loved it, then once on video and still really liked it. Now, with The Lost World out, I decided...

Pros: Jeff Goldblum's performance of Ian Malcolm is right on; dino special effects; has good laughs Cons: Movie discards 95% of the book; terror of unearned knowledge replaced with kiddy stuff
Before I start, I have to say, I do like the movie Jurassic Park. I found it to be quite funny. However, in comparison to Michael Crichton's best selling book, it's pathetic and insulting. The special effects were awesome, with dinosaurs being brought...
