The first Jurassic Park was by far the best. It came out at just the right time and was, as I recall it, instrumental in reinvigorating the interest in Dinosaurs. The experts at the time were using Stop-Motion or the newer Go-Motion and CGI was still a new technology.
There were actually going to use the Motion systems till Spielberg saw some test footage of a CGI T-Rex and then decided to use that instead. They still kept the Motion experts as they built a metal T-Rex model that they could manipulate and convert those movements into the CGI rig for the animation process that was used in the final movie.
I love Jurassic Park and dig it out a few times a year. The Lost World was watchable but a defo drop in quality but I didn't care for #3.
Jurassic World was ok but the quality again dropped after the first one.
