Jurassic Universe Movies: Jurassic Park Films
This watch order represents the original Jurassic Park trilogy that started it all, showcasing Steven Spielberg's vision of humans versus dinosaurs with groundbreaking effects and suspenseful storytelling. These films focus on smaller-scale encounters that emphasize wonder, terror, and the consequences of genetic engineering, featuring a blend of practical and digital effects that still hold up today.
The trilogy captures the franchise at its most intimate and suspenseful, where every dinosaur encounter feels genuinely dangerous and awe-inspiring rather than part of large-scale action sequences.
