Paxton | 90 97th |
I watched this with my six year old son and when the Brachiosaurus sneezed all over the little girl he laughed so hard he shot snot on me. Does this qualify as life imitating art? The dinosaurs end up chewing far less of the scenery than Jeff Goldblum. His knee squeeze of Richard Attenborough coupled with his knee slaps before he explains chaos theory make it the greatest performance by an actor's knees since unspecified actor had to do unspecified act on unspecified producer. Topical.

Wonderous, exciting and unforgettable. Marvel at the inventive set-pieces, the groundbreaking and still impressive effects and, crucial to the sense of adventure, Williams' magnificent theme. One of the best of its kind, this is exactly what a blockbuster should be and, tellingly, what makes it great isn't the very entertaining action parts; it's the build-up. Patience from a narrative standpoint is rewarded ten-fold. Contemporaries, take note, 'cause you sure don't make 'em like they used to.

A fantastic piece of entertainment containing a surprisingly large number of interesting subtextual elements (feminism, technology, capitalism, etc.). Far more than just a piece of popcorn entertainment, even while it succeeds wildly in that regard.

One of a kind. Modern special effects still haven't been able to achieve the level of detail and sheer realism showcased in Jurassic Park. These days special effects just end up making everything on screen look cartoonish. In Jurassic Park you can see thousands of individual raindrops landing on the tyrannasaurus's snout, and the way all the dinosaurs move and react is incredible. Saw this on the big screen when I was 9 and I was scared as hell.

Monumental. This is what you happens when you team up the best Sci-Fi/Thriller author with the best director and the best composer. The production equivalent of the 1992 Dream Team put together one of the most well known, epic films ever.

Effects that were insane for the time....still hold up almost 20 years later (with the exception of one or two scenes). The film is a lot funnier than I remember it being, and the Goldblum here is vintage Jeff Goldblum. The only thing I really had a problem with was deus ex machina ending, and the fact that it wrapped up *very* quickly.

Perhaps because it’s an iconic line of dialogue, my annual viewing of Jurassic Park always reminds me of Butterfinger. I allow myself one a year: just the one. It’s a perfect blend of texture and flavor, smooth chocolate and tart peanut; every year is the best Butterfinger I’ve ever had. But any more than the one standard Butterfinger, and I start to taste the factory stale, the homogenized chemical package, the sickly sweet coating. This score brought to you by a once-a-year screening.

Spielberg at his most idiotic. Poop and snot gags, for Christ's sake. We're supposed to care about and be scared for the precious darling little children, but I was praying they'd get killed. As if the kiddies weren't annoying enough, the other characters were equally irritating, and paper thin. And don't get me started on John Williams' syrupy score, the orchestra swelling every chance it got, telling you how to react to every single moment of the film.

Undoubtedly some plot and science silliness but I found all of that overlookable. The real reason to see this is the special effects. Even today they're pretty damn amazing. I can still remember seeing this in the theatre when I was 10 years old and being completely memorized during the first T-Rex escape, which still blows me away to this day.

Spielberg's Jurassic Park is one of the era-defining films of the 90s, a sell-out blockbuster with pioneering modern special effects. Crichton's riveting, dense and scary novel represented a hugely challenging undertaking, but the director's vision was deftly managed: he took a science-fiction-thriller-thesis and produced family entertainment, only sacrificing the bare minimum of scientific content. A terrific rollercoaster ride with artful shot composition and nuanced ensemble drama. Iconic.

Jurassic Park contains special effects that still seem ground breaking. It looks great and the action is fun and fast. It's like an amusement park ride in movie form. Ignore that the science of it is absurd. Of course it is, they bring back dinosaurs, so they take some shortcuts when they get to explaining how. Either way, the film is a blast. Scary for children, exciting for adults, great for dates. Awesome!

Some of the acting is a bit over the top but they're still believable and entertaining characters. More than anything, though, it's a film about dinosaurs and it delivers that in spades. It very much captures that sense of awe and wonder at nature and does it through a well crafted adventure story.

I watched it again on cinema in 3D. I have a soft spot for ambitious projects and this is such an ambitious undertaking. The special effects were done only by an 11-persons team and they did not age at all. That moment of amazement when you see the dinasours is still there and who can bring that enthusiasm about nature better than a member of the Attenborough family? If of all the geological periods everybody specifically knows Jurassic, then you have done something amazing. Bring on the 4th!

I'd already been taken to the movies a few times in my life before getting to see this as a five- (soon-to-be six-) year-old, but this was the moment I fell in love with going to the movies. It was terrifying to me then, and still packs a few scares, largely because the effects still hold up to this day. Most of that is due to the use of practical animatronics touched up by CGI, and it all looks gorgeous. Pure spectacle, but there's a real brain behind the brawn. The ultimate summer blockbuster.

Used to be my favorite movie as a kid. Watching it again more recently, yeah it gets cheesy and stupid at times, but it's still a whole lot of fun. It's extremely quotable, the effects still work today, and the score is one of William's best. Spielberg knew exactly how to balance the CGI and animatronics to make it look convincing. And really, it's just so much fun to be able to see Dinosaurs up on the big screen.

This movie came out when I was in elementary school, so of course I have some fond memories, I saw it in theaters over and over. But watching it again almost 15 years later, a lot of it falls flat. The effects have held up VERY well, the cast is entertaining, and the dialogue is pretty snappy. But it's also very silly, and made to sell toys to kids like me. There's also a lot of very big mistakes and continuity errors, more than any major motion picture that I've seen.

When I think of this film a few things immediately pop into my mind. One: when they round the bend and see all of the dinosaurs for the first time...simply magical. Two: Damn you Newman!!!! >:(. Three: How come they could mix CGI so well with physical props back then but it seems difficult for studios to do it well today?

Yeah, I'd never seen it, fuck you. Bad stuff, but I really hate kids in movies, and whatshername and whatshisface were far too much of a focus, especially in a movie about dinosaurs. Also, I wanted to see a velociraptor get shot in the face. And the people who say the CGI has aged well haven't seen the movie since it came out. The rest is poop jokes and total cornball. It's such a Cornballer George Bluth would be ashamed. Possibly Spielberg's worst film.

The essential dinosaur fix and is still so damn impressive all these years later. Testament to the special effect team as it still looks incredible. Even with two highly annoying kids that make you root for the dinos, you have the always cool Goldblum to even things out. An entertaining blockbuster that despite faults stands tall as one hugely enjoyable monster mash.

Through the haze of time, this film has lost a little of its in-your-face shock factor, but it's hard to care when you remember just how perfectly paced it is. I bet if you think about it, you remember that deep, slowly evolving dread as Nedrys demise gradually let the island's security deactivate and the Dinosaurs break free. Effects and especially sound are still premium today (except maybe the animatronics haha). One of the few times that a family blockbuster is also a genuine masterpiece.

A technological milestone, a movie rollercoaster from the one who does those best and an experience of a lifetime, for a thirteen year old kid, whose life so far culminated when seeing dinosaurs walk again for the first time. Much later in life I have to note that when you put TWO annoying kids in a movie, it'd really be no problem at all with the dinos eating at least one.

An absolute pleasure to watch. The script is tight and orderly making for an interesting narrative concept that also finds room to chauffeur a rather expansive cast for the first third of the movie, a rarity in regards to blockbusters. The score is beautiful to listen too and fits the film well. Special effects look great, despite their age, mostly having to do with Spielberg's care for details in choosing his shots. All the scenes with dinosaurs seem almost flattering to their designs.

Review I should make: I thought maybe revisiting this would show me one of my favorite childhood cinematic staples was oversweetened by nostalgia, but I was pleasantly surprised to find a maturely themed and immaculately paced film remained in the place where my younger counterpart found only DINOSAWRS. Weighty ideas surrounded by great actors, unforgettable music, and exceptional use of camerawork and narrative buildup.
Review I made: DUN DUN DA-DUN-DA DA DA DA DUN DUN DUN DAAAAAA

The classic. For 1993, the special effects are downright beautiful. Everything about this movie just works. It wraps around you like that hoodie your mother just washed. All warm and cozy. The suspense works, the action works, the smattering of CG and the emphasis on puppetry and animatronics gives everything a real feel that only can be relived from watching Alien or Predator, where the actors can actually have something to act against. Just a great, great, great piece of cinema.

A classic. This movie will always be fun to watch. The CGI has aged extremely well, and actually looks a lot better than CGI in many more modern movies. If Spielberg had followed the book down to a T, it might've been the best movie ever. I do not believe the world was ready for that.

A true classic of sweaty, pulpy adventure cinema. I first saw it when I was 7, the perfect age to understand the plot (and find the dino DNA stuff really cool) but still find it massively harrowing and frightening. The T-Rex highway escape might be the highlight of the film, and god damn is it a sensational set piece. The special effects were ahead of their time and largely still look great. Jeff Goldblum and John Williams, both awesome. Just a great flick.

On a purely visual level, the movie was endlessly innovative and very interesting. On the storytelling level, it failed, mostly due to gross simplification of the story (which I suppose was necessary due to Crichton's tendency to over-jargon his books) and common things used by Spielberg which are not fun to watch for anyone over ten. Hate to say it, but read the book instead. The book isn't even that good to begin with.

Exciting and fun. Jeff Goldblum helps a lot, but it's Spielberg's pacing and tension that deliver the jolts. The dinosaurs were both cool and cheesy (and sometimes a little too shimmery), but mostly they were believable enough to make the movie work.

I saw this movie 4 times in the theater as a ten year old, and each time I loved it more than the last. It made me discover that movies have the power to take me to a new wonderful world where anything really was possible. The dinosaurs just floored me. They weren't special effects, they WERE dinosaurs. I was amazed, moved, and terrified, and to this day I admire the movie for its ability to do that to me. This is my Star Wars.

While it may have lost some (not a lot, but some) of it's charm over the years, most people still remember what a milestone Jurassic Park was upon its release. Speilberg, ever the magician, brings dinosaurs to life, both on film and figuratively in this Michael Chricton story that set the standard for special effects at the time. An interesting cast and adventurous effects bring to life one of the most realistic fantasy films to ever be committed to film.

One of the greatest movies of any decade, ever. Spielburg put together the most life-like dinosaurs to ever grace the screen, and these special effects are still convincing today. Solid performances by Sam Neill, Jeff Goldblum, and the most underrated actress in Hollywood, Laura Dern create a thrilling epic in which each of us was allowed to experience our childhood fascinations with creatures of the ancient world all over again. John Williams' score is also memorable.

The main idea is strong, the effects are great, Jeff Goldblum (and his lines) are fun and the occasional mixture of horror and humour is delicious. Pair these elements with a rather predictable premise, some cheesy music and a rather lazy script (mostly cardboard characters, a structure that is half build-up and half all-hell-breaks-loose) and you get yourself an enjoyable adventure tale that has memorable scenes but is far from great on the whole.

Everything about the first hour is fantastic. The sense of sophistication and adventure, the effects, the characters, etc. Climaxing with the still-incredible T-Rex attack. Sadly, the films loses more and more steam the longer it goes after that, and the finale with the raptors is just downright disappointing. Still, it earns its legacy and is a blueprint for what Blockbusters should work from.

Having not seen this for 10 years it wasn't as good as I remembered it. It's still one of the more thrilling films I've seen when it comes to the action, Williams' score is breathtaking, and the production and CGI still hold up, but the writing and the acting is hit-or-miss. Most of the characters are grating (especially the two kids, and excepting O'Neill and Attenborough) or one-dimensonal and I ended up cheering for the dinosaurs to eat them.

Is there any blockbuster movie with a better sense of fun, fear or foreshadowing? JP is just perfection. The acting, the monster-movie vibe, the BRILLIANT production design, the special effects (amazing then, hold up well now), Jeff Goldblum slowly removing his clothes, the endlessly fun script, and some dinosaurs which highlight both the wonder and the terror of life. Perfectly paced, and every little detail set up in the first half pays off in spades in the second. GOD I LOVE JURASSIC PARK

While the special effects are the marquee feature (though it's mostly animatronic work), the core of this movie is the acting. Basic expressions of fear and wonder have rarely been so strong and pure. I'm reminded of Die Hard in how every character and scene interlocks so tightly with the narrative, with zero waste. Each element of the park is iconic. The humor works. The scares work. Even if the science is made up, the theme of 'respect for nature' works. A masterpiece of the subgenre.

I've seen Jurassic Park about 20 times, but I just realized I never did a review for it. Y'know, I've never watched Jurassic Park under normal circumstances. I've watched it in a hospital room, drunk, in a cabin out in the middle of nowhere, even more drunk, in one of my film classes, and plenty of other places. My dad also coerced me into going on the Jurassic Park at Universal Studios, making me almost shit myself in fear and ending my fascination with dinosaurs. Well, thanks for listening.

Jurassic Park is the ultimate summer blockbuster. This is Steven Spielberg's most ambitious creation to date and it changed the way we look at filmmaking. This was a major part of my childhood and I remember playing the VHS to death. Sam Neill, Laura Dern & Jeff Goldblum are all great, but the main stars here are the magnificent Dinosaurs. Stan Winstons animatronics and all the special effects set the standard and they still hold up amazingly. Jurassic Park is a monumental piece of filmmaking.

Considering that this movie has two children delightedly yelling "It's an interactive CD-ROM!" the effects really are great even by today's standards. The movie itself has both drama, suspense, a message and memorable one-liners. The only thing missing was for the two annoying children to get eaten. But I suppose we're all to blame for continuing to hand Spielberg ridiculous amounts of money, without ever demanding a proper child sacrifice in return.

Well done, Mr. Spielberg. A top notch thriller, and one that even 20 years after its release feels just as refreshing as when it was first introduced.

One of my favorite movies of all time. The characters are very well balanced and the movie carries a charm that you won't find in many other films.

Awesome. Nice parable about science and ecological destruction. Extinction is forever, and nature finds a way.

A real cinema signpost, presenting wonder- and terror-stimulating highlights that determine it as the meteoric forerunner of a mint entertainment kingdom. Even while seizing the imagination of its enormous audience, this film sets the stage for the amusement park rides, sequels and souvenirs that assure the Jurassic Park event would continue for over a decade.

Watching this as a kid in the 90's, I remember the sense of awe seeing the Brachiosauruses for the first time accompanied by John Williams' iconic theme. I remember the terror and suspense when night fell and the T-Rex was free. So many films do not stand the test of time; fortunately Jurassic Park is not one of them. This fantastical adventure is exactly what it needs to be in terms of plot, pacing, direction and cast to deserve its place as a modern classic.

I remember seeing this when it came out in high school. It blew everyone away. It was a magical experience at an AMC Burbank.. I still remember the chills to this day. The magic of John Williams and beautiful island arrival scenes captured the wonder of the park before all hell broke loose. The kids might be a bit cornball but the characters were all relatable and well rounded so you were actually concerned about their plight. I probably still have this poster somewhere rolled up.

Even a quarter-century later the effects are still outstanding. The pinnacle of adventure film making also features Spielberg's fantastic character work and a simple, yet poignant, message. Jurassic Park is a classic for a reason.
