Oh yes. What an epic.
It was the first movie to scare the living shite out of me, and it was the start of my obsession with Jeff Goldblum, well for that matter the start of everybody's obsession with the most monotone actor of all time. fantastic.
The film raises great questions, and even though scientifically flawed and far-fetched it still has great social context when considering the hysteria and fear from cloning technologies. The effects are just awesome and I would go as far to say possibly the greatest effects ever in a movie (bar Star Wars) and the sound is positively terrifying. Attenborough is quirky and brilliant in his mad professor role, and there's nothing like a bit of dinosaurs on a saturday night!
My Favourite Bit = When that guy gets eaten when on the Toilet. Classic.
