Story Overview

Jurassic Park (1993) begins with a groundbreaking scientific discovery: prehistoric mosquitoes preserved in amber, carrying the ancient blood of dinosaurs. Backed by billionaire visionary John Hammond (Richard Attenborough), a team of scientists successfully extracts dinosaur DNA from these fossils. By combining the incomplete genetic code with that of an African frog, they achieve the impossible—bringing creatures extinct for over 65 million years back to life.

On a remote island leased from the government, Hammond constructs a state-of-the-art theme park surrounded by electrified fences, designed to safely contain these resurrected giants. Confident in his achievement, he invites a select group of experts, including Dr. Alan Grant, to evaluate the park’s safety over a single weekend before opening it to the public.

However, the fragile balance between science and control collapses when an insider attempts to steal the valuable dinosaur embryos, disabling the island’s security systems in the process. Freed from their enclosures, the dinosaurs reclaim their dominance, turning the park into a nightmare where survival becomes the only priority.

Blending cutting-edge visual effects with relentless suspense, Jurassic Park redefined blockbuster cinema and raised enduring questions about humanity’s power over nature, scientific responsibility, and the unpredictable consequences of playing god.
