Jurassic Park [Blu-ray]

Jurassic Park is one of those movies that never gets old. It is a classic for a reason. The story, the music, the effects, it all still holds up today. It is a movie everyone in the family enjoys no matter how many times we have seen it. The dinosaurs feel real and the suspense is just right. Definitely one of my all time favorites.

FORMAT: Blu-Ray + Digital HDUPC: 0-25192-29365-8RELEASED: 2015-05-12TITLE: Jurassic Park (1993) • PG-13 • 2:06:37Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum, Richard AttenboroughSteven Spielberg (Director)This film is another example of the law of unintended consequences, to wit: genetically engineered dinosaurs, plus hubristic theme park creator, plus kids on the loose — what could possibly go wrong? Well, you know the rest. Though I still enjoyed this movie very much after all of these years, it was a LOT more talky than I remembered. See the other reviews for more detail and/or other opinions of the movie's plot.VIDEO: 1.85:1 • Color • 1080p • VC-1 (30.4 Mbps)Considering the age of this film (over twenty-plus years at the time of this writing) the picture quality is relatively amazing. First off, there are no obvious artifacts such as specks, white dots, hair-lines or color fluctuations to speak of — which is always a consideration with images sourced from film. Further, the image is fairly sharp (without any obvious edge-enhancement) and has very good contrast (particularly in the dark and shadowy areas, such as the many night scenes and in the black shirt and black jeans worn by the Jeff Goldblum character). However, though the image is fairly sharp, it lacks fine detail. And, in some (but not all) close-ups of the faces of characters, there is often more than a hint of the wax-like appearance that is characteristic of overly aggressive dynamic noise reduction (DNR). Also, individual hairs and clothing textures don't have that finely delineated quality found in the best transfers to disc. However, even after all of the previously stated nit-picking, this is still an image that is of far more than acceptable quality — an image which is, quite possibly, the best that the movie has ever looked.AUDIO: DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 (48kHz, 24-bit)The sound quality of the re-mix of the soundtrack into DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 for this disc is VERY, VERY good. In fact, it is far better than the soundtracks of many recent releases (such as Universal's own Jurassic World). Dialog is clear and well placed, even in very noisy scenes. The rear and side channels are very active and highly directional throughout the length of the movie — even in quiet scenes they are very well utilized in conveying the acoustic environment of the characters on screen. And, the sub-woofer is often used to very good effect. The only quibbles I have with this soundtrack (and, they ARE minor) are that I think that the bass in the sub-woofer channel could have been deeper (particularly when the T-Rex is walking and running), and there could have been DEEPER bass used in ALL of the other channels to augment the bass of the sub-woofer channel when it was active. Though I don't consider the audio of this disc to be of reference quality, it is, nevertheless a VERY GOOD example of effective sound design for film.EXTRAS: Several 'Making Of' videosStoryboardsProduction archivesNone of the extras were reviewed.

This is my son’s favorites movie. I can just about quote this movie. We have to watch it at least 1 time a day

We all know Jurassic Park is a timeless classic. It was a groundbreaking film and entertainment that still holds up today; the CG back then (including Terminator 2) still looks way more impressive than rushed out uninspired video game looking CG work done today! The Raptors look so realistic! Back then, I thought they were actually actors in a physical realistic costume suit having the most impressive creature movements ever in history... haha. With the amazing lighting work and everything, it doesn't look CG at all. I love how it builds up suspense by not showing the T-Rex immediately, and then there are just multiple actions that occur right after another... pacing is just great... even today, Jurassic Park is just loaded with intense, well thought-out clever moments and NOT just sloppy actions that drag.I know there are people who are not fans of 3D (Why Christopher Nolan? Inception deserves 3D. It gives an amazing experience!!) and believe it's a gimmick... back in the day, perhaps... and I do believe not all movies benefit from 3D. However, with today's technology and watching the 3D in high definition, large projection screen, it is really mind blowing incredible if the 3D elements enhance the film.Instead of being a spectator, when the movie and 3D is done right, it really feels like you're involved and on the set! I mean, 3D technology is not perfect and there can be some cardboard cut-out feeling still, but there can also be scenes where you totally forget you're even watching a screen. I felt like I was on the ride entering the park with them! I think it's more intense than the Jurassic Park water ride at Universal too! It's like having a theme park/Universal in my own home! I love seeing that Jurassic Park entrance in 3D... goosebumps! Seeing the T-Rex in 3D was like literally being there present and it was a whole new, exhilarating experience for me.When the girl falls off from the air duct and the Raptor leaps up towards her.... that totally made me flinch in 3D -- even though I knew that was going to happen from watching the film before.When one can watch an entertaining quality film with story, and then adding well-done 3D conversion, that is a win-win total complete package. One would think they shot this movie in 3D.... it's just really well done. Of course the kitchen Raptor scene has great depth in 3D.Back in 1993, I had a choice of watching Jurassic Park or Super Mario Bros in theaters... Haha.. glad I chose the former. I'm very grateful to be able to watch and experience this film in 3D. If you haven't seen this in 3D, you're missing out. Well worth the investment! I am so addicted to 3D films now, I don't know if I can enjoy watching well-done 3D films in 2D now.
