Jurassic Park at Revival House Perth
Experience Steven Spielberg's groundbreaking 1993 masterpiece that brought dinosaurs back to life and changed cinema forever. When wealthy industrialist John Hammond invites paleontologists Dr. Alan Grant and Dr. Ellie Sattler to preview his revolutionary theme park, they discover he's used cutting-edge genetic engineering to resurrect actual dinosaurs - but nature finds a way to reclaim what was never meant to be controlled.
Sam Neill brings rugged expertise to Dr. Grant, a man whose love of dinosaur bones becomes terror when faced with living, breathing predators, while Laura Dern shines as Dr. Sattler, a botanist whose scientific curiosity matches her survival instincts. Jeff Goldblum delivers iconic wit as chaos theorist Ian Malcolm, whose warnings about the park's inevitable collapse prove all too prophetic.
Spielberg's masterful direction combines cutting-edge CGI with revolutionary animatronics to create dinosaurs that feel genuinely alive and terrifyingly real. The film's blend of wonder and terror captures both the majesty of these ancient creatures and the hubris of those who would play God with extinction.
Richard Attenborough brings paternal warmth to Hammond, whose dreams of sharing wonder with the world blind him to the dangers he's unleashed, while the child actors Ariana Richards and Joseph Mazzello provide heart and vulnerability as his visiting grandchildren.
