    The Jurassic Park is a novel by Michael Crichton, published by Alfred A. Knopf in 1990. The version I've read is the Hungarian edition, published by Maecenas Könyvkiadó in 1992. Jurassic Park is an adventure story, set in the near future on a dinosaur-based theme park, where everything goes wrong. Crichton's writing is captivating. He is able to show us a believable character in a page or two. I recommend the Jurassic Park book for anyone who would like to read a thrilling adventure story.

  • Jurassic World 3: Dominion, movie for the Jurassic Park series (2022) - Film review by Kadmon

    If you'd like to be surprised by the Jurassic World 3: Dominion film, I don't recommend you to watch trailer 2 beyond 0:44, and trailer 1 beyond 1:07, because they start to gives away parts of the plot.

    This is my review of Jurassic World 3: Dominion, a sci-fi adventure movie for the Jurassic Park series from 2022. It's about  scientists trying to prevent a global catastrophe. The Jurassic World 3: Dominion film is watchable, but I only recommend it to people who can switch their brains off while trying to enjoy movies.
