When everything was put together, it made a perfect movie.

Rating: 8/10 (28 July 2001)

I have seen this movie over and over again and have read the book. Michael Crichton came up with a great storyline which makes the movie so good. Steven Spielberg is a genius. No other director could have made Jurassic Park come alive like he did. After reading the members of the cast for the first time, there were some names I'd never heard before. Especially Sam Neill, the lead actor. I did realize however that with this cast the movie was great. You might think more popular actors need to be in a box office hit like Jurassic Park, but really the cast used was perfect. Ian Malcom's character was a great character. He brings so much to the movie. My hat is off to Jeff Goldblum, who played Malcom. Malcom was a very complex character because of his theories and opinions. Goldblum nailed the part. The special effects in this movie blew me away. For 1993 the dinosaurs were a breakthrough in animatronics. Stan Winston created the dinosaurs all the way down to the smallest detail. I have seen all Jurassic Park movies and still believe that the dinosaurs in the first movie were the greatest.
This movie is action-packed but it also has a great story. I rate it a must see for moviegoers everywhere.
