Holy shite that's a great movie.

My 11yo never cries and he was fighting back tears a few times.

I'm ready for a rewatch. Dark room, surround sound cranked up... Damn what a ride.

Man i was rereading Jurassic Park this week and its crazy how similar the books are in the beginning.

Just great storytelling and the movies dont stray from the books.

We need more

Absolutely. Great story without over explaining things and I was constantly like "oh he's doing that because of this!!" and my son even picked up on it. Of course my wife (God bless her) was completely clueless and we kept using to explain what everything meant to her.

Love a movie that doesn't talk down to the audience.

Agreed. After my first watch I felt they didn’t explain enough of how big the stakes were. Felt they rushed it. On second watch, I realized they did plenty of it and I felt the pressure of the situation more. There wasn’t some big explanation with over reactions like Armageddon.

Yes. I watched the movie, then got the audible book and I am now looking very forward to a serious rewatch when it hits streaming at home.
