Classic that holds up

Rating: 8/10 (7 April 2013)

Saw this in 3D and while the 3D is mostly good, the movie itself is what holds up. No new CGI that I noticed. But good plot and film making hold up in the theater forever.
I was reminded just how great Richard Attenborough is in the movie. His acting is charming, poignant and luminous. It's a shame his performance is so over shadowed by the dinosaurs and story. You wish there was a prequel for his character to really dominate.
Unfortunately I remember how little I miss Jeff Goldblum on screen as well. If he weren't in the sequel, they could have used the new release to have him savagely eaten.
Great fun and something parents and their kids will enjoy equally. A popcorn masterpiece.
