This Chricton classic was wonderful in it's book form, but I'm sorry to say, is horrible in it's movie form. Maybe it was too complex a subject for it's day, or maybe it got unjustly thrown into the 70's sci-fi mold... who knows.. but to be sure, this film is both boring and unbelievable (in a bad way)! I highly recommend the book (which I read in a day!) but I'd say that the DVD is not worth the time it takes to watch (which is far too much) or the money it takes to buy.
