1. Jurassic Park

Was there ever a doubt? Steven Spielberg’s first Jurassic Park is basically perfect. The screenplay is simple, clear, and propulsive. The characters are interesting and dynamic. The music is unforgettable as is the imaginative story. Truly, I feel anyone who doesn’t think the original Jurassic Park is the best Jurassic film is probably just mixing up the titles. It’s that much better than every single other film in the franchise.
In fact, I think if you assigned a number to the quality of every single other film in the franchise and added them all up, it still wouldn’t be equal to the original. It’s that good and that much better than the rest.
