Title & Director

Rating

The blockbuster, Jurassic Park, earns respect for its quick pace and incredible special effects. Best experienced on the big screen, this movie offers a good range of jump scare and thrill. The characters, however, are not well developed. T-rex is perhaps the deepest character!

Summary

While the main characters narrowly avoid being eaten by several huge dinosaurs in their escape from the island, the villians are not so lucky. The movie concludes with the moral suggestion that perhaps science should not interfere with nature.
