Michael Crichton - portrait

Michael Crichton has always been one of my favourite authors. I’m a big fan of his science fiction, his thrillers, but also of his medical fiction works.

Several of his works have been turned into movies and TV (mini)series (albeit with mixed results). Here’s a list of all movies and TV (mini)series based on books by Michael Crichton:
