Jurassic Park

One of the defining blockbusters of the late 20th century, Jurassic Park is a masterful thrill ride and a cautionary tale about genetic engineering and the dangers of reintroducing dinosaurs to the modern world. Starring Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Richard Attenborough, and peak Jeff Goldblum. (127 mins., 35mm)
