JURASSIC PARK THE MOVIE MOVIE
It's a movie that came together at a weird time for him, one he had to make in order to secure the financing for Schindler's List. This never bumped me and feels like a real reach on their part.Īt the end of the day, I think Jurassic Park is easily one of the most important movies of the 90s and of Spielberg's career. Sometimes it takes an outside investigation to help clear up internal issues. Lastly, they thought the staff at the park was dumb.īut I'd say that these are people isolated and dealing with new lifeforms. If he thought there would be problems, they were the very minor ones at the beginning of the tour, like the trucks not working and the animals staying hidden. He said multiple times in his mind this is a zoo that should be ready to open. Sure, kids are a liability, but these are his grandkids. Hammond did not think his tour was dangerous at all. The ambiguity comes through humanity, not the theme of the film.Īnother smaller debate was the logic behind Hammond bringing kids there. This is important because as we see characters arc and change, we get the sense that their moral code. But humans have motives all over the spectrum. Nature will always act in one way -the way it takes to survive.
We see a lot of grey area here and grey characters. In one of the scenes that I failed to mention above, is the actual thematic structure of the film.įor me, the idea is that humanity covers the spectrum of good and bad. This movie is about innovation leading to self-extinction. That is an insane amount of memorable om off the top of my head!!! The "Welcome to Jurassic Park" reveal of the dinosaurs.Killer opening with just a taste of the raptors.I don't want to link them all here but let's list them. But what I think sets this movie apart from others is just how many memorable scenes we get. We know that a great screenplay and an amazing movie is built from the ground up, one scene at a time.
