GiddyUp!

Rating: Null/10 (10 October 1998)

Well, I've never seen a movie like this before! Monsters, or in this case Dinosaurs, are locked up in cages, they escape and go on a rampage. No, we've never seen that before!
That statement was a statement of sarcasm. This kind of plot has been done so many times, I'm surprised lawsuits haven't been thrown out. But even though we've seen this kind of plot before, 'Jurassic Park' is still at least half decent. I saw it for the first time when I was 10. And at that age, a movie like this will terrify a young child to the bones, and this one did just that. The scene in the kitchen with the raptors was horribly tense. I can't think of a time I've been more scared. But now that I'm older, and a little more mature, it's hard to find a movie that will scare me like that ever again. And that's a little sad, because I like it when a movie scares me. It shows that the people who made the movie did a good job. But aside from the fact that I was scared, I also enjoyed it very much. The dinosaurs looked real, some of the acting was pretty good, which in my opinion is important for any movie.
In the end, this movie is one of my favourites. And even though that kitchen scene doesn't scare me anymore, I will never forget how it scared me the first time. However, if you want a movie that will create the same tension, only make it last longer, see 'Aliens'. It will terrify you. Believe me. But if you haven't seen 'Jurassic Park', I'd like to ask you where the hell you've been the last 6 years?
