Steven Spielberg directed this blockbuster thriller based on the popular book by Michael Crichton.
Millionaire John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) asks two dinosaur experts (Laura Dern and
Sam Neill) to act as consultants on his entrepreneurial endeavor--an amusement park with
DNA-cloned live dinosaurs as the main attraction. The paleontologists, along with a mathematician
(Jeff Goldblum) and Hammond’s two grandchildren, takes a run-through tour of the park. But
soon the joyride turns to terror when an impending hurricane, an unscrupulous engineer (Wayne
Knight), and the rebelling dinosaurs begin to destroy the park. Spielberg considered the most
popular star of the film to be a computer-generated Tyrannosaurus rex. The special effects in
general are spectacular.
Directed by Steven Spielberg - Rated PG-13
