Jurassic Park: a wonderful piece of cinema that will leave an impact on popular culture as one of the greatest films of all time.

Rating: 10/10 (13 June 2016)

Steven Spilberg's blockbusters have never stopped amazing people in the 90s, and it's this humble critic's opinion that the pinnacle of his films is his massive summer blockbuster known as Jurassic Park.
It's been 23 years after it's first theatrical release and it holds up like no other film. How? were do I begin?.
The story is great. Based on Michael Chricton's bestseller with the same name, Spilberg's masterful directing manages to capture both an awe an wonder that just doesn't exist anymore, and some thrilling terror than gives goosebumps to anyone that watches it. All while giving a thought-provoking commentary about man's interference over nature. The characters are memorable and likable. From the paleontologist Alan Grant, to the witty Ian Malcom. From the positive Ellie Satler the whimsical yet developed John Hammond. If this doesn't sell you as to why this movie is absolutely fantastic, we haven't got to the dinosaurs, so let's talk about them.
The dinosaurs in this movie are as close to perfect as you can get in a motion picture. Not only do they successfully deliver the terror, but the wonder as well. And they are brought to life like no film today can. The use of both computer generated imagery that, on it's time, pushed the boundaries of technology and animatronics that are done to the absolute best, these effects hold up just as well as they did back then. The effects are so amazing that they surpass most modern movies made today (including it's sucessor, Jurassic World). On top of that, the spot on sound mixing to generate the creature's sounds makes them feel more life-like than any other film.
On a film level, regarding the camera-work, lighting and pacing, this movie is great. And I cannot go without mentioning John William's musical score. This score is so amazing, that rivals that of Star Wars, William's most well known soundtracks. And considering the music for that film is regarded as one of film history's best, that's saying a lot.
I could go on and on as to why this movie is amazing, but I think you all know this.
If I could give a higher rating than 10, this movie would get it. But to follow IMDb's guidelines, Jurassic Park absolutely gets a 10/10 (one of the greatest films of all time).
If you haven't seen it, do it immediately, you won't regret it.
