I have the film on DVD and have watched it several times over the last couple of years. Each time I find I react differently to it, and I find this interesting. I can understand why some are uncomfortable with the film, and why some don't like it. I myself understand the film's context with regard to other comedy-farces of the time, and I myself admire the technical workmanship of the film, which is pretty much astoundingly good. But what I don't understand is why I liked the film enough to buy the DVD. But I did.

Not that many funny parts, overall boring, too much of a mess, waste of a talented cast

I think the problem was Spelberg tried to hard should of been more focused. You also need to be a Spelberg fan to pick up 90% of the easter egg jokes. Even a Jurasic Park joke.

There is more Gravy about you then the Grave. Scrooge.

I don't know about any Jurassic Park jokes but there is a Jaws spoof. They spoofed the opening scene of Jaws where the young woman goes swimming and gets eaten. If you look at the full cast list for both movies, it's even the same actress in both scenes.

A Jurassic Park joke? About 20 years before it was made?

Originality needs a reboot.
