Based on Michael Crichton’s novel of the same name, Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park was the catalyst for the entire phenomenon. The 1993 original of the film, which continues to be regarded as one of the best films of the 1990s, captivated audiences everywhere. A significant portion of our memories of the amazing, enormous, and ravaging dinosaurs, or dinosaurs as they are more often known, come from the Jurassic Park movies. You might want to brush up on your Jurassic knowledge by rewatching the series in order when Jurassic World Dominion, the sixth and allegedly final instalment, arrived in theatres on Friday, June 10.

3. Jurassic Park III (2001)

With a low flight over the remote island of Isla Sorna, which served as InGen’s second research site. Dr. Grant was unaware that all Kirby and his wife need is a dinosaur specialist to assist them in locating their son Eric, age 14. He fell on the island while paragliding. The Velociraptors have developed into a communicating species and are now smarter than primates. Hence, it is something he did suspect but never wanted to see.
