A popular timeless classic described as a ground-breaking film has landed on Netflix – and viewers are thrilled.
Described as outstanding and absolutely incredible, the film has received pages of five-star reviews since it hit the viewing content site.
Jurassic Park ‘proves to be a shining pillar’ of how to make a ‘summer blockbuster’ one reviewer declares.
Another declared: “It’s not just the dinosaurs that make this film such a fun watch but the cast and the characters as well.”
Those viewing the film also say it’’s stood the test of time, praising ‘legend’ Steven Spielberg along with the ‘outstanding screenplay’ from Michael Crichton and David Koepp.
One viewer also mentioned the performances ‘of everyone in the cast’ fitting their roles ‘perfectly’, with ‘stand outs’ being Jeff Goldblum, Richard Attenborough and Wayne Knight.
One enthusiastic reviewer wrote on Rotten Tomatoes: “Another ground breaking film created by the legend Steven Spielberg.
“Jurassic Park is one of the most fun adventures on film I can think of. Everyone loves dinosaurs; kids and adults alike.
“It’s not just the dinosaurs that make this film such a fun watch but the cast/characters as well and not to mention that beautiful score. The CGI (computer-generated imagery) still holds up very well today making Jurassic Park a timeless classic.”
Another viewer simply described Jurassic Park as a dinosaur fan’s ‘perfect movie adventure’, while others took the time to write paragraphs about the film.
Reviewing on Rotten Tomatoes, Percy F wrote: “Dino go rawr!The original Jurassic Park is an absolutely incredible film.
“From the brilliant direction of Steven Spielberg, and the outstanding screenplay from Michael Crichton and David Koepp, Jurassic Park proves to be a shining pillar of how to make a summer blockbuster.
“The performances of everyone in the cast fit their roles perfectly, with stand outs being Jeff Goldblum, Richard Attenborough and Wayne Knight.
“The script is impressively thoughtful, with the debate over the morality of bringing back extinct dinosaurs, as well as life’s ability to succeed under the most impossible of circumstances.
“However, the most outstanding parts of Jurassic Park is without a doubt its blend of practical and special effects, the movie is only as good as its ability to bring the dinosaurs to life, and boy does it.
“I can only imagine seeing this movie in theaters in 93, and how mind blowing these effects had to have been for the time – even more impressive is the fact that they still hold up in 2025.
“Plus, I always have a soft spot for any movie willing to use practical effects and puppets, but who can blame me. It helps make the dinosaurs feel real!
“The only knock I have against this film is also a piece of additional praise for the film.
“Spielberg is a master at crafting suspenseful and exciting action sequences and Jurassic Park fully delivers on that regard.
“Unfortunately, the action sequences are occasionally at the expense of real logic, if I’d been suspending my disbelief once or maybe twice, I might be able to justify not taking off half a point.
“However, there were three moments throughout the film that forced me into a corner when it came to my suspension of disbelief, thus taking off half a star from what is otherwise a practically flawless film.”
You can settle down for a night in and watch all three in the series, because the first two films ‘The Lost World: Jurassic Park’ and ‘Jurassic Park III’, are also available to view on Netflix
