Sam Neill put a twist on his iconic 'Jurassic Park' character with this action-adventure comedy.

The Big Picture It's difficult to think of Sam Neill and not immediately picture him in his paleontologist attire from Jurassic Park. The movie and the part are just so iconic that he and Dr. Alan Grant sort of blend together at this point. But there's much more to Neill's career and range than running from dinosaurs. One of his best roles, in fact, is a highly emotional one, that might not seem all that different from Alan Grant, but couldn't be further.

The movie is centered on Ricky Baker and his feeling of being let down by every grown-up he's ever known, but it's really about connection maturing. His relationship with Hec is what really drives the narrative, and Sam Neill and Julian Dennison have such chemistry that the movie could very well just follow them wandering the woods in New Zealand and it would already be good enough, as they constantly pick on one another and discover weird people living off the grid.

The Differences Between Uncle Hec May and Alan Grant When you think of a grumpy man who lives by himself and has a tough time dealing with kids, we could be describing either Uncle Hec or Alan Grant. They even dress somewhat similarly, with hats, button-up shirts, and boots! For all we know, Hec could very well be an older version of Grant, but these two couldn't be further apart, actually — and it's not just about the lack of dinosaurs in Hunt for the Wilderpeople.
