What were your favourite parts of the films?

Where do I start? There are so many memorable parts in the Jurassic films, my son was introduced to the franchise through the Lego films and now he’s a bit older I was thrilled to introduce him to the original films. Watching with a small boy meant the lawyer getting eaten whilst on the loo had us both laughing!
Who would you recommend the films to?
Adults who grew up with them and children obsessed with dinosaurs.
What did other members of your family think of the films?
They loved them although we decided they were too much for our 4 year old to watch. I look forward to showing her in a few years.

other family members:

my ds is 6 and he loved the movie. He is obsessed with dinosaurs. Has a dinosaur encyclopedia which he reads everyday.

We love the Jurassic world films! The first was obviously the ground-breaker. My kids were completely in awe of the idea that dinosaurs could be brought back to life etc.
They loved the perspective of the kids in the film - and also that the "bad guys" got what they deserved.

I'd recommend these films to just about everyone - particularly anyone who's ever been fascinated by dinosaurs & also science/ethics students (ie the best quote of the film "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could (recreate dinosaurs), they didn't stop to think if they should"

What were your favourite parts of the films?

I loved the first film and was super excited to watch it again and then watch the others with my family - i wanted until my American nieces came over so we could all watch it together - 3 years since we last saw each other ... we might not have anything to talk about!
Watching it with 4 children it made me realise quite how awesome the whole dinosaurs walking around thing really is ... although you'd think the youth of today might be quite jaded - these films still somehow capture that magic of when cgi was new and exciting - so we did all love the dinosaurs - the humour too - the man being eaten off the loo still appears to be as funny to 10 year olds as it was originally!


Who would you recommend the films to?

Families - maybe not those with 'sensitive' types .... my youngest who is 10 sobbed and sobbed at the goat being used as bait section and refused to watch anymore of the first film - however the American 8 year old rocketed on through that bit - in a later film where the island is consumed by flames - more sobbing for the poor dinosaurs left behind ... but then that was quite sad ...


What did other members of your family think of the films?

Great family, cross age viewing - we watched as 3 generations and besides the sad times outlined above it was brilliant - much laughter and some watching through fingers .... the first film is def the best however!!!

What were your favourite parts of the films?
it’s got to be the whole first movie! It’s bloody amazing and it took me back to watching it as a child. The music is definitely the best part for me.

Who would you recommend the films to?
Everyone, but especially families. They make great family movie night films!

What did other members of your family think of the films?
My 5 year old loved them all. He has been playing Jurassic park ever since with his toys. My 7 year old found it a bit scary at times and didn’t watch all of them.
