Description of this Jurassic Park 1 Poster
Jurassic Park is a 1993 American science fiction action film directed by Steven Spielberg, produced by Kathleen Kennedy and Gerald R. Molen, and starring Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum, and Richard Attenborough. It is the first installment in the Jurassic Park franchise and the first film in the original Jurassic Park trilogy. It is based on the eponymous 1990 novel by Michael Crichton and a screenplay by Crichton and David Koepp. The film takes place on the fictional island of Isla Nublar, located off the Pacific coast of Central America near Costa Rica, where wealthy businessman John Hammond (Attenborough) and a team of geneticists have created a wildlife park for extinct dinosaurs. When industrial sabotage leads to the catastrophic failure of the park’s power and security measures, a small group of visitors and Hammond’s grandchildren struggle to survive and escape the perilous island.
Before the publication of Crichton’s novel, four studios bid for the film rights. With the backing of Universal Studios, Spielberg acquired the rights for $1.5 million before its publication in 1990. Crichton was hired for an additional $500,000 to adapt the novel for the screen. Koepp wrote the final version, which omitted much of the novel’s exposition and violence and made numerous changes to the characters. Filming took place in California and Hawaii from August to November 1992, and post-production lasted until May 1993, overseen by Spielberg in Poland while he was shooting Schindler’s List. The dinosaurs were created using Industrial Light & Magic’s groundbreaking computer graphics and life-size animatronic dinosaurs built by Stan Winston’s team. To showcase the film’s sound design, which included a mix of various animal sounds for the dinosaurs’ roars, Spielberg invested in the creation of DTS, a company specializing in digital surround sound formats. The film was supported by an extensive $65 million marketing campaign, which included licensing agreements with over 100 companies.
Jurassic Park premiered on June 9, 1993, at the Uptown Theater in Washington, D.C., and was released on June 11 in the United States. It grossed over $914 million worldwide during its theatrical run, becoming the highest-grossing film of all time, surpassing Spielberg’s own E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial, a record that held until the release of Titanic in 1997. It received positive reviews from critics, who praised its special effects and Spielberg’s direction. Following its 20th anniversary re-release in 2013, Jurassic Park became the oldest film in history to surpass $1 billion in ticket sales and the seventeenth overall. The film has won over 20 awards, including three Academy Awards for its technical achievements in visual effects and sound design. In 2018, it was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress for being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.” The film was followed by five sequels – The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997), Jurassic Park III (2001), Jurassic World (2015), Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018), and Jurassic World Dominion (2022).
Industrialist John Hammond has created Jurassic Park, a cloned dinosaur theme park, on the tropical Isla Nublar. After a dinosaur handler is killed by a Velociraptor, the park’s investors, represented by attorney Donald Gennaro, demand safety certification. Gennaro invites Chaotician Ian Malcolm, while Hammond invites paleontologist Alan Grant and paleobotanist Ellie Sattler. Upon arrival, the group is shocked to see a live Brachiosaurus.
At the park’s visitor center, the group learns that cloning was achieved by extracting dinosaur DNA from prehistoric mosquitoes preserved in amber. DNA from frogs and other animals was used to fill in the gaps in the dinosaur genome. To prevent reproduction, all the dinosaurs were made female through direct chromosome manipulation. The group witnesses the hatching of a baby Velociraptor and tours the raptor enclosure. Over lunch, the group debates the ethics of cloning and the creation of the park. Malcolm warns of the implications of genetic engineering and mocks the conceptualization of the park, claiming it will inevitably collapse.
Hammond’s grandchildren, Lex and Tim, join them for a tour of the park, while Hammond supervises from the control room. The tour does not go as planned, with most of the dinosaurs failing to appear and the group encountering a sick Triceratops; it is cut short as a tropical storm approaches. Most of the park staff leave by boat for the mainland, while the visitors return to their electric vehicles, except for Sattler, who stays behind with the park veterinarian to study the Triceratops.
Jurassic Park’s lead computer programmer, Dennis Nedry, has been bribed by Dodgson, a man working for Hammond’s rival, to steal fertilized dinosaur embryos. Nedry disables the park’s security system to gain access to the embryo storage room and stores the embryos in a container disguised as a can of shaving cream. Nedry’s sabotage also cuts power to the tour vehicles, stranding them just as they approach the park’s Tyrannosaurus rex enclosure. Most of the park’s electric fences are also disabled, allowing the Tyrannosaurus to escape and attack the group. After knocking over a passenger vehicle, the Tyrannosaurus injures Malcolm and devours Gennaro, while Grant, Lex, and Tim escape. On their way to deliver the embryos to the island’s docks, Nedry gets lost in the rain, crashes his Jeep Wrangler, and is killed by a Dilophosaurus. Sattler helps game warden Robert Muldoon search for survivors; they only find an injured Malcolm, just before the Tyrannosaurus returns and chases them away. Grant, Tim, and Lex take refuge in a treetop and encounter a Brachiosaurus. They later discover broken dinosaur eggshells, and Grant concludes that the dinosaurs reproduced, which happened thanks to their amphibian DNA—animals like West African frogs can change sex in a single-sex environment, allowing the dinosaurs to do the same.
Unable to crack Nedry’s code to reactivate the security system, Hammond and chief engineer Ray Arnold reset the park’s system. The group shuts down the park’s network and takes refuge in an emergency bunker while Arnold goes to a maintenance shed to complete the reboot process. When Arnold doesn’t return, Sattler and Muldoon go to the shed. They discover that the shutdown has disabled the remaining fences and released the Velociraptors. Muldoon distracts the raptors while Sattler goes to restore the power before being attacked by a raptor and discovering Arnold’s severed arm. Meanwhile, Muldoon is caught off guard and killed by the other two raptors.
Grant, Tim, and Lex reach the visitor center. Grant goes to find Sattler, leaving Tim and Lex inside. Tim and Lex are chased by the raptors into a kitchen, but they escape and join Grant and Sattler, who have returned. The group reaches the control room, and Lex uses Nedry’s computer to restore power to the park, allowing them to call Hammond, who requests help. As they try to escape through the main entrance, they are cornered by the raptors, but they escape when the Tyrannosaurus appears and kills the raptors. Hammond arrives in a jeep with Malcolm, and the group boards a helicopter to leave the island.
