    “Jurassic Park” Movie Review

    “JP” Plot Summary

    During a preview tour, a theme park suffers a major power breakdown that allows its cloned dinosaur exhibits to run amok.

    I LOVE this movie!

    This film is easily one of my favorite movies. I saw this movie when it came out in theaters back in 1993; I was only 9-years-old and, though some scenes scared the crap out of me, it blew me away. I was amazed at how, for the first time in a movie, I felt like I was watching REAL dinosaurs. For those who haven’t seen this movie (there are people like that?), it centers on a billionaire’s attempt to create a new amusement park on an isolated island creating bio-engineered dinosaurs; when a group of specialists are brought in to examine the park, things go terribly wrong

    I absolutely loved the story of this film; I loved it so much I had my parents buy me Michael Crichton’s novel and I read it 3 times through the course of my fifth grade year. It was then that I fell in love with the work of Crichton and found myself reading the rest of his work. While, yes, the movie did divert pretty heavily from the book, I still felt it was a great adaptation. It’s Spielberg’s version of Crichton’s story, so I don’t mind the mass differences. The movie is much more family-friendly than Crichton’s novel and I would love to see a another version eventually, a darker version that sticks closer to Crichton’s novel. Unlike most instances when I can say ‘The book was better’ or ‘The movie was better’, I don’t feel the need in this case because they were both fantastic

    The cast did a terrific job. Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Richard Attenborough…all were great in their roles. Though my favorite performance came from Jeff Goldblum as Dr. Ian Malcolm, the arrogant chaos theoretician. I’ve been a fan of Goldblum for a while and I thought he was the perfect choice for the role in this movie. Of course, I have to rave a bit about the film’s special effects. As I mentioned before, this film contains probably the most realistic dinosaurs seen in cinema. A seamless combination of practical animatronics and CGI were used to bring the dinosaurs to life. By now, the effects seem a little dated but they continue to stand strong even now, 15 years later

    This movie is one of those films that every must see. It grossed $350 million in the US alone. The film marked yet another milestone in special effects in cinema. And most importantly, it’s just entertaining.

    “Blow” Movie Review

    “Blow” Plot Summary

    The story of George Jung, the man who established the American cocaine market in the 1970’s.

    Great movie!

    It is great to see a movie that knows the distinction between ‘anti-drug’ versus ‘anti-drug-dealer’. This movie shows the human side of prisoners of war in the war against drug choice and drug freedom. It does not demonize George Jung nor make him out to be a perfect human being. For instance, he is not portrayed as the best father in the world. Nevertheless, this distinction and balance is desperately needed in Hollywood’s current extreme state of bias in movies against drugs

    Johnny Depp and Paul Reubens and Ray Liotta play their characters with wonderful sensitivity. They create no dull moments on the screen. The movie would have benefited from seeing at least one montage of the final buyers of cocaine. I would like to see from where all those bags and bags of cash ultimately came!

    “Collateral Damage” Movie Review

    “Collateral Damage” Plot Summary

    After his family is killed by a terrorist act, a firefighter goes in search of the one responsible. add synopsis

    I liked it because the terrorists were so evil…

    so how can one not like seeing them get their butt kicked by a one man wrecking machine. Arnie is back, as a revenge seeking firefighter. This flick is much better than his last couple of films. His acting is OK, but some line deliveries are laughable. His face appears tighter than an army private’s bunk bed. Who says you have to age in Hollywood!(SPOILERS): My favorite scene is where the wolf forces a snake down his own man’s throat as punishment. It looked painful. Eek! I also liked the scene where Arnie sets a granade to go off but the wolf escapes because he hears Arnie yelling to the woman and child to get down. I knew the woman/wife would end up being just as evil because she wouldn’t be married to a terrorist if she didn’t support his actions and beliefs

    Of course, it is unrealistic that one man could take over a guerilla camp when the whole USA operatives couldn’t do anything about it. But what I didn’t like was the scene toward the end when Arnie sets this huge fireball off in the tunnel and 2 people on a motorcycle are swallowed by the explosion and survive. That was so unbelieveable. Arnie takes care of the wife and terrorist. But, he should have killed the terrorist in a more painful way because the scum deserved that.(END OF SPOILERS)FINAL VERDICT): This is your average action flick. There was nothing spectacular that would make me want to see it again. I recommend it if you are a big action fan.
