Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
On remote Isla Nuba entrepreneur John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) has built the ultimate theme-park, populated by genetically engineered dinosaurs painstakingly reconstructed from DNA extracted from prehistoric amber... and, of course, frogs! Adapted from Michael Crichton's novel, Steven Spielberg's classic blockbuster became a cultural and commercial phenomenon thanks in part to the enduring appeal of all things prehistoric. But the film's extraordinarily realistic digital dinosaurs also showcased the spectacular computer-generated effects which have since become ubiquitous in Hollywood filmmaking. Indeed, in the years since 1993 it is debatable whether any film has revolutionised special effects to such an extent, and this DVD release offers the perfect opportunity to relive its visual and aural splendour (the film was also the first to be released with a DTS soundtrack).

Given the rather insipid team of experts (including Sam Neill, Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum) sent to approve Hammond's site, there is no doubt that the dinosaurs are the real stars of Spielberg's film. From the benign majesty of the towering brachiosaurus to the reptilian menace of the velociraptors, the inhabitants of Jurassic Park were a radical departure from their stop-motion predecessors, and remain compellingly real in their animalistic pursuit of survival at all costs. Most memorable of all is the T-rex, displaying a spine-chilling combination of physical ferocity and child-like bewilderment in the face of its reincarnation in the modern world. It was no surprise that in The Lost World sequel the T-rex once again took centre stage, but this first appearance still retains a unique power and a seminal place in film history. --Steve Napleton

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Jurassic Park review
Jurassic Park is a brilliant film. The acting is brilliant, the characters are brilliant, the storyline is brilliant,and of course, the dinosaurs are so real, I was amazed when I first saw
this film when I was little, and now I'm 14, writing this now.
We see a host of dinosaurs:Brachiosaurus,Triceratops, Gallimimus,Dilophosaurus,Velociraptor,and Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Tyrannosaurus Rex is the king in this film.It's the most fierce
creature we see.Everyone in the world shouls watch this film,they'll like it. A truly brilliant film.





Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Not Just a walk in the park
WOW! What an incredible piece of cinema history. This is amazing and is still stunning audiences worldwide. I love it and you'll love it. A group of scientists are sent to a remote Island to see a billionaires new theme park, full of real living, walking dinosaurs. But not everyone is true on the Island and soon the Dinousaurs are past the fences and they're hungry. The graphics are amazing and everything about this film will just stun you. The best in the trilogy!
The T-Rex scene is amazing. I still get scared when I watch it. The only thing I can't believe is how this film got away with a PG Rating. Another of Spielbergs ridiculous rating. How does he get away with it. He's brilliant but half of his films are 12 or below and they are ... Read More:



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great film on a jurassic scale!
It maybe quite old now but Jurassic park would still wow audiences if released today. The special effects don't look dated at all and are better than many more recent films. It's not just about the special effects though featuring a strong cast inc Sameul L. Jackson in a small role, Laura Dern, Sam Neil and Jeff Goldblum. The film does raise the question about technology, science and morality. "Just because you can, you didn't stop to think if you shoud" If it were possible to bring back creatures from the past, is it morally right to do so? However the fun is in the 2nd half of the film where the island theme park fails after a tropical storm and the park becomes a lot more interactive than visitors would like. There are some awe inspiring moments ... Read More:



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Truly Amazing
This is arguably, in my opinion, the best Monster movie ever made and one of the greatest films of all time. Spielberg has created a masterpiece of filmmaking, as well as Jaws, Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan. I remember watching this in 1993 at the big screen just after it had came out and was blown away. The cinema was jam packed and I remember that there were queues to see this film, but luckily I wasn't in those queues, I'd already booked tickets. The film was fascinating, I loved it. It was good to see Richard Attenborough being in a film role after about 14 years and he made a great job of it. The visual effects are astonishing, still to this day and the script by David Koepp is brilliant. At all circumstances you must get this film on ... Read More:



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A film to roar for!
Jurassic Park maybe old compared to it's follow ups but in my opinion it beats them both when it comes to a good plot. The graphics are brilliant, the realistic dinosaurs are brilliant and the actors are brilliant. People say this film is in the horror genre but I'd say it's more in the adventure\action genre. No matter how many dinosaur movies they bring out, none will compare to Spielberg's classic.
