Due to a tragic accident during the transportation of a dangerous species of dinosaur (the velociraptor), an employee loses his life. Hammond finds himself being sued for damages. The investors are "very anxious" about the safety of this future park and demand outside opinions from knowledgeable scientists to give their seal of approval on the park before it opens.
Dr. Allen Grant (Neill), Dr. Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern), and Ian Malcom (Jeff Goldblum) have been issued for the very task of inspecting the island. Invited for a short observation and tour they find themselves facing dangers they never dreamed of.
A disgruntled employee of Hammond, Dennis Nedry played by Wayne Knight (known for his role in the show Seinfeld), betrays Hammond and the park by stealing various different dinosaur DNA and selling it to a rivaling company. Fueled by financial problems Nedry locks up the computer systems and security systems so that he may successfully confiscate the DNA and get off the island undetected. Everything goes awry and the animals who were most definitely under "control" break free from that very control.
No security, phones, and minimal guns puts the small group of survivors in a precarious situation. Will the bunch outsmart a species of animal that they have only witnessed through books or by brushing away sand from scarce bone remains?
I suggest you watch the movie to find out for yourself.
This movie is phenomenal. A beautiful score composed by John Williams captivates audiences. Made in 1993 the special effects and graphics seem very realistic.
My personal favorite in this film is Iam Malcom played by Jeff Goldblum. Extremely sarcastic and annoyingly precise, Malcom seems to have everything figured out.
If you have yet to see this film you do not know what you are missing out on. It is a classic and one that the whole family would enjoy. Careful of the little ones though, they may get a little scared.
