Jurassic Park: Comparison Between Book and Movie
The story Jurassic Park, by Michael Crichton takes place
on a small
island near Costa Rica, it's about a park full of dinosaurs
created by Dr.
Hammond. The dinosaurs are locked in large cages with electric
fences. But as
the mathematician Ian Malcolm predicted, nature cannot be
controlled. They find
this out when the security system goes out. They soon lost the
electric fence
and the dinosaurs started to escape. They try to restore the
power and are
successful but it did not matter since the dinosaurs were already
loose.
The dinosaurs start to cause a lot of trouble, even with
the power
restored. They determine that there is nothing they can do. They
decide to
leave the island by helicopter.
The book is much different then the movie. The book goes
in more detail
about the genetic engineering of the dinosaurs. The book also
makes Ian
Malcolm's theory that nature can't be controlled nor predicted
more valid. In
the end of the book version the island actually survives for a
while after the
power goes out.
I liked the movie more because I saw that first and it
made the book

seem strange. I would recommend reading Jurassic Park. It starts
right in the
beginning with suspense and action.
