Jurassic Park: Ultimate Edition Blu Ray

Jurassic Park Ultimate trilogy
Rating:M
Released by Universal Home Ent

18 years since the dinosaurs changed the face of the cinema and finally they've got the treatment they deserve on this HD outing.

The three films may be a little varying in quality with neither sequel really reaching the highs of the first film but there's just something thrillingly entertaining about these films.

It's a very simple story - man meets the monsters which patrolled the earth millennia ago - but there's something very appealing and enduring about the first film in particular. Maybe it's because it's from Spielberg, but there are scenes which just continue to capture the imagination - including the iconic moment when a cup of water vibrates as a dino moves into shot. Nearly 20 years on, that one scene is still as exciting as it was as it unfurled on the big screen.

With over 7 hours of extras, there's plenty to get your (dinosaur) teeth into - including a six part doco reuniting all the original stars.

Coupled with a great transition to HD, this ultimate trilogy represents a great bundle of entertainment.
