The following 2022 article concludes:
- For what Crichton says about the greed of the international corporatocracy, neocolonial land grabs masquerading as (eco)tourism, and the violence of the entertainment-industrial complex as it meshes with the ethically unhinged vision of blank check-
funded science outside of government oversight, Jurassic Park is ultimately something of a masterpiece. On the one hand, a letdown whose dinosaurs fail to excite in comparison to other media, and whose prose and character development is so godawful as to
beggar both belief and offer great amusement. On the other hand, a grim, dystopian vision of entertainment, science, and 1980s capitalism gone horribly awry.
Crichton’s Jurassic Park is a blurry vision held in amber, its lessons ripe for the taking, and one not since cloned—it remains, truly, a terrible masterpiece.
