A fantastic film involving dinosaurs, one of the best films of its time, it still holds up well over twenty years later, thanks to limited use of CGI and a preference for animatronics. Science has finally broken through the barriers and managed to extract dinosaur DNA from prehistoric mosquitoes fossilized in amber. Through this process, they are able to clone dinosaurs, intending to build a theme park. Things go wrong when a storm hits and through a series of events, all power is lost leaving the dinosaurs, including the carnivores, run rampant. The writing and sequencing of events are fantastic. The classic scenes from the tyrannosaurus chasing the jeep to the velociraptors hunting the humans are such intense sequences, causing you to jump in your seats. The ending felt abrupt though since it would have been nice to see the aftereffects of what had happened. Sure, it might take around forty minutes before you actually get to see the first dinosaur, but the final hour was so worth it.
