Review of The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997) by Thomas J — 17 May 2016
Not a bad sequel. It has a good cast, with some back from the first, special effects improved but lost it's impact somehow. One or two great action scenes but got silly or stupid in the final 3rd, that seemed over the top.
The dinosaur creations are even better than those in the first film --- credible, breathtaking and frightening. As for the rest, every department pales by comparison. The film is essentially a grab bag of sequences tied together by a minimal storyline that allows several abandoned scenes from the first book to reach the screen.
To be honest, stick with the first film or read the book. It's the worse in the series.
