Utahraptor questions



1:  I was told by a rather uninformed friend that those animals in the Jurassic Park movies, the "raptors" were of these kind.  Ive checked out the Utahraptor myself and the size-wise charts say it grows to something between 6-8m in length (not sure about the height).  This seems to me, to be too large.  Maybe they are more like a Deinonychus size?
 
2: I would like to know a little more about the Utahraptor itself, for instance, how long is the switch-blade claw on the feet.  The largest Ive heard of is the Velociraptors reaching 48cm.  Also, other facts and figures if anyone knoews them?
