Greatest Dinosaur Film Ever.

Rating: 10/10 (9 April 2009)

Jurassic Park is the greatest dinosaur film I have ever seen. Its great effects, acting, and plot all lead to it being so awesome.
Using dna and genetics, dinosaurs are brought back to life. They are put into a giant park called Jurassic Park. The creator of this place calls in several people whom he hopes to convince that this is a good idea for a tour of the Park. However soon problems start to take place and dinosaurs start to make the people on the tour go extinct.
The story is awesome in this film. Using dna and old amber, I could really see this happening. I know that it really could not but it really does seem to make sense in a way. In the past dinosaurs in films always seemed to be hiding in a place far away from humans only to be discovered. But I like that this film has a new unique idea on how to bring dinosaurs back. Of all the ways to bring dinosaurs into a film I think this works good.
The characters and acting in this film are great as well. Sam Neil is great as the paleontologist Grant, one of the best performances by an actor that I have seen and also one of the most under rated performances of all time. Laura Dern is really good as Dr. Sattler. Also I loved Jeff Goldblum as Ian Malcolm, another great character and performance. Goldblum is hilarious in this film. I will say that I think the two little kids in this film are really annoying, but then again I do not think I have ever seen a film where I liked every character.
As good as the people in this film are, the dinosaurs are just as good. They look great, as good as it gets. The Tyrannosaurus is great, has a loud echoing roar and walks without his tail dragging and rather using it for balance. The scene where it breaks out of the electric fence is legendary and really exciting. Easily the best dinosaur in movie history in my opinion.
The star dinosaur in this film though is the Velociraptor. For a long time in films the predatory dinosaur was always either the Tyrannosaurus or the Allosaurus, large predatory dinosaurs with power. But Velociraptor in this film instead depends on speed and intelligence as well as sharp teeth, claws, and working in groups. SO this film does great at giving a new predatory dinosaur to the viewing audience. Kind of cool how the smaller Velociraptor can be just as scary as the larger Tyrannosaurus.
Another thing I thought was cool was the Dilophosaurus. A really not well known dinosaur, but this film helps people to see it. Pretty interesting how it has a frill pop up from its neck and can spit venom.
There are tons of great scenes in this film. You will have to see most of them to understand how great they are. I do not want to spoil it for anyone.
The music is awesome as well.
SO this film has it all, great acting, plot, action, and most importantly Dinosaurs. There are no films I can recommend more to see than this film.
