Not far as good as the original off course!

Rating: 6/10 (14 June 2004)

Spielberg's extreme success from 1993 were doomed to get a sequel. Four years later Steven Spielberg released a sequel to the amazing original and everyone simply had to see it! But most got very dissapointed, because the mystique, brilliance, dialogs and excitemeny is all gone sadly! Although it's still brilliant entertaining and nice made it doesn't stand on own feet.
Sam Neill and Laura Dern is gone, so we've got some totally new characters into the picture although Malcolm and Hammond is still there. The story is a bit dumb, getting to know that Hammond had made two islands with dinosaurs on both. One ready to be Jurassic Park and the other were the creatures could live in freedom without fences etc. So Hammond decides to send a small unit down to the island to do some research on the dinosaurs...something that off course they never should have done!
The first was stunning; really stunning! This is just entertaining, not more, something I think is very sad! LOST WORLD has got it's sequences that's truly fabulous but threw the pity dialogs, the all-threw mood and the terrible thing that T-Rex reaches the city! The respect is gone and the thrills are now based on the creatures actually attacking, not the mystique how they look like, cause after all; we've seen them! Although Malcolm is a lot more mature and cool in this one, somethings works and other don't, something rare in a Spielberg movie I must say! STARS: 2-3/5
