Jurassic Park is the best one.

But I also liked Rising Sun and Twister alot and Sphere is very underrated.

JURASSIC PARK, WESTWORLD, and THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN are all amazing flicks based upon the works of Crichton...Now if we could all just wash Crichton's RUNAWAY from our minds...:D

The only ones I've seen are Jurassic Park, and Twister. JP is a 7/10, and Twister's a 6.5/10, the edge goes to Jurassic Park

JURASSIC PARK is the clear winner be a landslide for me. Great. Movie. Period.

Jurassic Park is the best, although they didn't leave much of the book in the film...Even less with the sequel.

I don't think Twister was a book at all...But I enjoyed the film.

Rising Sun wasn't too good, The 13th Warrior was really bad, and Congo works well as campy fun.

Disclosure was quite alright, but I haven't read that one.

And Sphere was quite a disappointment, since the book was quite good in my opinion.
