Jurassic Park adapts Crichton's novel. Dinosaurs, cloned from prehistoric mosquito DNA, populate a theme park on Isla Nublar, owned by a reckless entrepreneur (Richard Attenborough).
Paleontologist Alan Grant (Sam Neill), paleobotanist Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern), and mathematician Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum) assess the park's safety, joined by Lex and Tim Murphy.
A storm and sabotage disable security, unleashing the dinosaurs. The tour becomes a desperate fight for survival against velociraptors and a T-Rex.
