The film is filmed by Michael Cryton's one-name novel. But the original source was highly redesigned and reduced: the characters of some heroes were changed, the good half of the dialogues were cut and many scenes with dinosaurs were removed. In the film, unlike Cryton's novel, there's hardly any bloodthirsty scenes, but it's not recommended that children under 13 years of age, without parents. Lenta has made a real breakthrough in the area of special effects, for which many awards and bonuses have been awarded.

John Hammond ' s old eccentric millionaire enthusiast is establishing, on a small island off the western coast of Costa Rica, a unique relic park that contains living dinosaurs re-established by genetic engineering.

Prehistoric carcasses with sharp teeth, strong fangs and strong limbs seem frightening, but Professor Hammond believes that there are no threats to others. In order to confirm this, John is inviting a group of experts to the island - several paleontologists, mathematics and a lawyer.

However, a few days before the opening of a staff member, a competing firm is being bribed, and it is abducting dinosaur embryos from the laboratory and decommissioning the computer security system. Prehistoric animals are free, provided with their instincts and blood thirst. The experts invited by Hammond remain unarmed at the center of the park, and just inside the territory of the most dangerous tyrannosaur predator.
