One of the Most Underrated Movies Ever

Rating: 7/10 (3 November 2005)

The Lost World: Jurassic Park is a very good sequel to Jurassic Park. It is also one of the most underrated movies I ever seen on IMDb. Although not superior or as good as the original, The Lost World: Jurassic Park is a more darker and more terrifying. Jeff Goldblum delivers a very good performance and plays as Ian Malcolm very well. The other actors and actresses also deliver a nice performance and the characters are shown decently. I must warn to any first-time watchers that this movie differs from the book a lot. This accounts for most of the deceiving bad reviews. Some of the characters in the book where used but a lot of characters (Ajay, Roland, Ludlow, and Nick were added). The plot isn't as good as the originals but does make sense and goes a long way. The CGI was some of the best I've ever seen-superior to Jurassic Park's. Excellent scenes include Eddie car being ripped in half by two parent T-Rexes, while trying to save Malcom, Sarah, and Nick, Dieter Stark (an added character) being eaten by dozens of compies, and a group of hunters being taken out by raptors one by one. There are 3 main places where The Lost World: Jurassic Park is weak. The first one being Sarah, Nick, and Malcolm responding to Eddie with a fast food order when Eddie asked what else the needed to rescue them from the trailers. The second being the worst is Kelly kicking a raptor and killing it. The last part, I actually liked (and so did some other people) was the part when the male T-Rex got loose in San Deigo. I personally think this scene was fun and thrilling but also kind of silly. Overall Spielberg delivers a great sequel almost as good as the original that came out four years earlier.
