Revealing mistake: In the scenes where there's a video link to the docks shown on computer, there's a bar moving along the bottom of the screen, showing us that it's actually a video that's just playing on the computer. (00:52:05)

Jurassic Park is a fantastic-though somewhat dated now-film about genetically-engineered amusement park animals and the first people that they terrorize. Alan Grant, Ian Malcolm and others try to stop the creatures from leaving the island, setting up the rest of the franchise. A true Classic.
Seen this movie in theaters and over 2 decades later it still holds up.
Might have been influenced by my 11-year-old son's insistence on "NOT GOING." I spent much of my time utilizing my superb peripheral vision watching his delightful facial expressions. It is still the best in the franchise. Technology is better now, but they need stronger stories, without so many absurdities. Despite some goofs, the first one seemed far more plausible than its successors.

Dr. Ian Malcolm: You think they'll have THAT on the tour?
Trivia: The T-Rex roars are a combination of tiger, elephant, alligator, whale, and dog sounds.
Question: Where do the staff and crew of Jurassic Park go after the dinosaurs escape? I mean you see a staff member tending to the triceratops, there were many scientists in the dinosaur lab, and would assume that there would be many more people on the island but they are nowhere to be seen after the dinosaurs escape.

Chosen answer: They all left on the same boat Nedry was trying to get on with the embryos. You can hear Samuel L Jackson's character announce that the boat will be leaving at a specific time and everyone had to be there or be left behind.
