true, but the film took all the edge off it and made it waay to cutsey
the sequel book was shite too. but the Crichton's a whore.

had you read the book?
make a difference. as is often the case the film is fine in it's own right but lacks a lot form the book. for example in the book Hammond, rather than being a cuddly but misguided dickie attenborough is an eval shit and you are happy when he get's eaten alive.

in this order I can see why the film would not offend

I love Crichton, I think the only book of his I haven't read is the pirates one, which wont' be my cup of tea.

did you read the Jurassic park sequel?
I used to like him but he got too formulaic for me about 10 years ago.

Yup, I can't remember much of it though, but I remember enjoying it.
State Of Fear and Micro are both very good.

not read those
but I'm guessing man interfered with nature/technology in a way he really shouldn't, everything went horribly wrong, several people died but it was all sorted out in the end with the hero and either an attractive woman or some cute kids surviving and escaping at the last moment.
