Hammond spares no expense to build a massive park on Isla
Nublar. When he invites many experts to checkout the features due to persistent
investors, these people soon find
themselves in a world of trouble that has long been extinct.
Yet another film by Steven Speilberg, this was adapted from
a book by Micheal Critchton that used many effects to bring the imagination to
life. The film builds up to how we see the dinosaurs so that we can question
imagine the size of these dinosaurs. For many of Spielberg’s films the magic is
in the mystery such as Close Encounters of the Third Kind, we never get to see
what is inside the space ship. However we do get to see the size and magnitude
of the dinosaurs, leaving nothing to the imagination.
For Steven Spielberg, this aspect of showing the dinosaurs
did indeed work. It was a new thing for the time period in which the film was
shown and for that it got a lot of attention. Also another aspect that made it
a good film was that it had both elements of action and horror. For example,
when the hunter was hunting the velociraptor, you think he was going to get the
dinosaur. Then you have a moment of surprise and terror as the hunter is
viciously eaten. Another facto that made this film so good was the cinematography.
The perfect example being the T-Rex chasing the gas Jeep with injured Ian in
the back. We see the T-Rex through the side view mirror and is now known to be
a very iconic shot in film.
