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 novel of the same name by Michael Crichton (1990) and a screenplay by Crichton and David Koepp. The film is set 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 an animal park of extinct dinosaurs. When industrial sabotage causes the park's electrical installations and security measures to catastrophically shut down, a small group of visitors and Hammond's grandchildren struggle to survive and escape the perilous island.
Before Crichton's novel was published, four studios made offers for the film rights. With the backing of Universal Studios, Spielberg acquired the rights for $1.5 million before publication in 1990. Crichton was hired for an additional $500,000 to adapt the novel for the screen. Koepp wrote the final version, which left out much of the novel's exposition and violence and made many changes to the characters. Filming took place in California and Hawaii from August to November 1992, and post-production lasted until May 1993, supervised by Spielberg in Poland while he was filming Schindler's List. The dinosaurs were created using Industrial Light & Magic's groundbreaking CGI 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 noises for dinosaur 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 deals with more than 100 companies.
Jurassic Park premiered on June 9, 1993 at the Uptown Theater in Washington, DC, and was released on June 11 in the United States. It grossed over $914 million worldwide upon its theatrical release, becoming the highest-grossing film of all time, surpassing Spielberg's own ET The Extra-Terrestrial, a record held until the Titanic released in 1997. It received positive reviews, which praised its special effects and Spielberg's direction. After its 20th anniversary re-release in 2013, Jurassic Park became the oldest film in history to exceed $1 billion in ticket sales and the seventeenth overall. The film won more than 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 because it is "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 created Jurassic Park, a cloned dinosaur theme park, on 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 living Brachiosaurus.
At the park's visitor center, the group learns that cloning was accomplished 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 dinosaurs were transformed into females by direct manipulation of chromosomes. The group witnesses the hatching of a baby Velociraptor and visits the raptor enclosure. During 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 park's conceptualization, saying 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 interrupted as a tropical storm approaches. Most park staff leave by boat for the mainland, while 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, was 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, blocking 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 overturning a passenger vehicle, the Tyrannosaurus injures Malcolm and devours Gennaro, while Grant, Lex and Tim escape. On his way to deliver the embryos to the island's docks, Nedry gets lost in the rain, crashes into his Jeep Wrangler and is killed by a Dilophosaurus.
Sattler helps the 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 the top of a tree and encounter a Brachiosaurus. They later discover the broken shells of dinosaur eggs, and Grant concludes that dinosaurs reproduced, which happened thanks to their amphibian DNA - animals like West African frogs can change of sex in a unisex environment, allowing 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 hangar to complete the reboot process. When Arnold doesn't return, Sattler and Muldoon go to the hangar. They discover that the shutdown has disabled the remaining fences and freed the Velociraptors. Muldoon distracts the raptors while Sattler goes to turn the power back on 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 visitors center. Grant goes looking for Sattler, leaving Tim and Lex inside. Tim and Lex are chased by the raptors into a kitchen, but they escape and rejoin 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 asks for help. As they try to escape through the main entrance, they are cornered by the raptors, but they escape when Tyrannosaurus appears and kills the raptors. Hammond arrives in a jeep with Malcolm, and the group boards a helicopter to leave the island.
