I feel like I'm one of the few that has actually read the books, which I would definitely recommend, but the original films are also fantastic. However, nothing can really beat the definition in which we can now see animations. Developing new software has allowed the film makers to really bring to life the dinosaurs which makes for a much scarier viewing than the original films, and so brings us closer to what the author wanted to make us feel. It's definitely suspense-filled and again an amazing plot that you can almost see happening at some point in the not-so-distant future?
