It took people being eaten and shattered along with the direction of Spielberg that made me remember why I always liked Dinosaurs.

Rating: 10/10 (8 May 2013)

Another great classic that the master Spielberg gave to the world. Do you ever wonder why dinosaurs are very famous? Thanks to "Jurassic Park" the "Discovery Channel" almost was not necessary.
Well, first let's talk about the story. The film is based on the book by Michael Crichton (who also wrote the movie's screenplay along with David Koepp). The film (which is quite different from the book) tells the story of a theme park where the main attraction is.... dinosaurs. The park, which has not yet opened to the public, is directed by John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) wanting to do a demonstration of the park, he invites the world's best paleontologist Dr. Alan Grant (Sam Neill) and his wife Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) and the scientist Dr. Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum), which looks more like a rock star. The three characters and the two grandchildren of John, Tim (Joseph Mazzello) and Lex Murphy (Ariana Richards) begin the tour through the magical park, until the power source has problem taking all security systems to failure. And with that, the huge and small carnivorous creatures are released and begin the small massacre.
The movie looks cute at the beginning, a little adventure on a magical island. Soon after the heroes arrive they primarily discover how the creatures that disappeared over 1 billion years ago are alive and in perfect condition. Then, moments of scientific dialogs start to explain everything. And if you think about it, it is all possible, that is where the writing of Michael stands out perfectly.
Soon after the dinosaurs get loose, starts a pursuit of pure suspense that only ends way latter. When a poor character is eaten by a T-Rex, the movie give's the climax that any of the characters can be eaten at any time and torn.
Writing, story, characters, all superb. But the technical aspects are totally stunning. The dinosaurs are very realistic, and their loud roars even seem real.
Another memorable classic. Characters, story, and even the dinosaurs are really unforgettable, a true masterpiece to be remembered forever.
