    Summary

    Reviewers say 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' is lauded for its thrilling action, impressive effects, and Jeff Goldblum's return. The darker tone and dinosaur behavior exploration are appreciated. However, critics cite weak characters, a convoluted plot, and repetitive elements from the original. Inconsistencies and unrealistic scenarios, especially in the final act, are noted. Despite flaws, it is seen as an entertaining sequel offering fun and excitement.

    A decent sequel!!

    Jurassic Park: The lost world is a science fiction action adventure movie directed by Steven Spielberg and stars Jeff Goldblum, Julianne Moore, Late Pete Postlethwaite, Arliss Howard, Vince Vaughn and Vanessa Lee Chester.

    This movie is second movie in Jurassic Park Franchise.

    After watching the first movie I was quite excited and hopeful towards this movie but was quite disappointed after reading the reviews but after watching this movie I must say that instead of going after reviews you should watch the movie first and judge because for me the movie is made decently.

    The plot of the movie is different from the previous one and has a decent execution. The best part of the movie is that you don't have to wait for long to see the dinosaurs as they are introduced quite early in comparison to it's first part.

    Acting is great and all the characters had done a decent job. Screenplay of the movie is good but it starts getting bore and slow in between but tightens the grip as the movie approaches to it's climax.

    VFX and cinematography is good and climax is also good although could've been little shorter and crispier. Background music is decent.

    This movie stands nowhere in the comparison of it's first part but still the movie has enough ingredients to keep you entertained. Watch it yourself to judge the movie. It's a decent one time watch.

    The only sequel in the series that is worthy to be called "Jurassic"

    The Lost World takes place 4 years after the disaster in the original Jurassic Park with Ian Malcolm discovering from John Hammond that there is a second island full of dinosaurs waiting to be exploited by the New heads of Ingen. So with the help of his friends, Malcolm tries to stop them in order to keep the dinosaurs from not only being exploited but to save his girlfriend who is also on the island. With that action comes the danger and mayhem that you would expect from a sequel to Jurassic Park. Jeff Goldblum is great once again as Ian Malcolm and the new cast starting with Julianne Moore is good as well and the tension and action is up several notches from the original Jurassic Park. While the novelty of the original is gone, Spielberg's magic is still evident and it still delivers. Too bad we never got a good follow up to this film because the next film in the series (Jurassic Park 3) begins the horrible nose dive in quality for this series leading into the terrible Jurassic World Trilogy.

    A solid sequel to the original Dinosaur classic

    Steven Spielberg's solid sequel lacks the sense of wonder and imagination of his original film (Jurassic Park) but it still carries its sense of heart, intelligence and amazing special effects. Jeff Goldblem , Richard Attenborough, Pete Postlethwaite and Julianne Moore rounds out the solid cast with some of the best chills and thrills of the entire series. The special effects are even better this time around and the Dino carnage this film has not been duplicated since. 8/10.

    A Thrilling Ride

    Jurassic Park II, officially known as The Lost World: Jurassic Park, takes audiences back into the dinosaur-laden world that captivated viewers in the original film. Directed by Steven Spielberg, this sequel shifts the focus to Isla Sorna, the island where dinosaurs were originally bred before being moved to Jurassic Park.

    The story follows Dr. Ian Malcolm, who returns to lead a team of experts sent to document the dinosaurs in their natural habitat. As they venture deeper into the island, they encounter a variety of prehistoric creatures, some familiar and some new, all while grappling with the ethical implications of their presence. The stakes escalate when a rescue mission turns dangerous, leading to thrilling encounters that highlight both the wonder and peril of these magnificent creatures.

    While Jurassic Park II features stunning visual effects and intense action sequences, it does not quite capture the groundbreaking storytelling and suspense of its predecessor. The character development feels less robust, and some plot points lack the same depth that made the first film so compelling.

    Despite these shortcomings, there are exhilarating moments that showcase the film's ambition and the awe of the dinosaurs. The film still delivers entertainment and excitement for fans of the franchise, even if it doesn't reach the heights of the original. Jurassic Park II is a worthy addition to the series but ultimately leaves viewers longing for the magic of the first film.

    Underrated

    My Rating: *** out of ****.

    I dont understand all the horrible reviews for this film. Sure not a great film, but definitely a good, entertaining movie. I enjoyed it just as much as the first Jurassic Park.

    The Lost World still contains impressive, eye popping effects. These are just as flawless as the CGI as the first Jurassic Parks. There are more dinosaurs and they all look great. The film contains more action than the first and its all exciting. One scene that stands out is the scene with the Raptors in the fields. I love the way Spielberg shot it.

    This is not a big acting movie, but its not that bad. Jeff Goldblum is good as Ian Malcolm, but had a little more energy in the first one. Julianne Moore is adequate but looks a bit uncomfortable at times. Vanessa Lee Chester is better than the other kids in the last film. The rest of the acting is adequate.

    Many people thought this film was redundant of the first. I wouldnt call it redundant but it is a little bit too familiar in areas. The Lost World takes place in a different area but it is not much different from the first one. However, it is an entertaining movie. The action overshadows the story.

    The big problem I have with The Lost World is the ending. It doesnt make sense how The T-Rex got loose. Its also a King Kong Rip-Off. Its visually stunning looking, the TREX doesnt look out of place at all. But it was showing CGI instead of doing something with the story. Nevertheless, even with its flaws The Lost World is entertaining and not worthy of its horrible reviews.

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Julianne Moore admitted that she did this movie for two reasons, to pay off the exorbitant divorce settlement that had been awarded to her ex-husband, and to work with Steven Spielberg and she's admitted that she "enjoyed herself tremendously."
    • Goofs
      (at around 1h 50 mins) After Ian and Sarah have the infant T-Rex in the back seat of the red convertible, as Ian turns into the gas station, in Ian's rear-view mirror you can see a brief reflection of Steven Spielberg with baseball cap directing the scene.
    • Quotes

      Dr. Ian Malcolm: Oh, yeah. Oooh, ahhh, that's how it always starts. Then later there's running and screaming.

    • Crazy credits
      David Koepp is listed as the "unlucky bastard" because he was eaten by the T-Rex. Koepp wrote the screenplay.
    • Alternate versions
      The Fox television network's version (aired on November 1st, 1998) includes two scenes not in the theatrical cut (see Trivia section). The first scene is an InGen meeting between Ludlow and InGen representatives, and takes place in between the opening Compy attack sequence and the Hammond scene. It contains exposition about what aftereffects the events of the first film had on InGen, and how Ludlow is taking over control of the company from Hammond. The second is in between the Hammond scene and the mission-prep scene with Eddie Carr. Set in Mombasa, it introduces Roland Tembo and Ajay Sidhu and makes it clear they have a long history working together. Both deleted scenes are included as special features on the DVD and Blu-ray, but are not integrated into the film.
