Editorial Review:

Amazon.com essential video:
Steven Spielberg's 1993 mega-hit rivals Jaws as the most intense and frightening film he'd ever made prior to Schindler's List, but it was also among his weakest stories. Based on Michael Crichton's novel about an island amusement park populated by cloned dinosaurs, the film works best as a thrill ride with none of the interesting human dynamics of Spielberg's Jaws. That lapse proves unfortunate, but there's no shortage of raw terror as a rampaging T-rex and nasty raptors try to make fast food out of the cast. The effects are still astonishing (despite the fact that the computer-generated technology has since been improved upon) and at times primeval, such as the sight of a herd of whatever-they-are scampering through a valley. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Love this movie
I ordered because I only had it on video and have no video player anymore. It's one of my favorite movies and can go into any part of the movie and be captivated.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Nothing can beat the book, but great attempt!
I loved Michael Crichton's book, and I never thought that the movie could come anywhere close to it, but this was a great movie! You will love it!

The plot is intense, and actually fairly realistic in the future. The characters are good enough that you will want to watch all of the sequels, and you will be on the edge of your seat throughout this movie.

Enjoy the flick! You will love it!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great movie
The movie is in great condition. Iam happy to say glad I bought it from amazon.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The T. Rex Wants to Hunt!
Jurassic Park is one of the best Crichton film adaptations thus far. Though the screenplay is only marginally faithful to the plot of the novel, the basic premise, people being hunted by prehistoric beasts in a tropical paradise, remains intact.

The animatronics and computer technology used to bring the film's dinosaurs to life have aged remarkably well, and the action sequences remain as gripping as ever. The fantastic video quality and available Dolby audio makes for a great viewing experience on wide-format TVs and surround sound systems. DVD extras are sparse for a 'Collector's Edition', but I normally don't care for special features anyway.

This is one of my favorite films and it was certainly a crowd pleaser when it was released in 1993. Spielberg keeps the introductions relatively brief and once the action starts, it continues pretty much unabated until the closing credits. His knack ... Read More

White Plains Journal News - So bad that even gaping at Elisha Cuthbert for 85 minutes doesn't seem worth it. She plays the victim, a New York supermodel. She's taken. She's tormented. She's tortured. And so on. They cover this in about 20 minutes in the second week of film ...
