Four years after Jurassic Park's genetically bred dinosaurs ran amok, multimillionaire John Hammond shocks chaos theorist Ian Malcolm by revealing that Hammond has been breeding more beasties at a secret location. Malcolm, his paleontologist ladylove and a wildlife videographer join an expedition to document the lethal lizards' natural behavior in this action-packed thriller.

For one brief shining moment, Hollywood stood in agreement and said yes, we believe Jeff Goldblum is the next great action star.
Actually has a pretty neat setup, gets too stupid too quickly though. Stops being about characters and leans more on the spectacle.
my jurassic park scheme would not be to open a deadly amusement park but to domesticate and snuggle the little dinosaurs :) in fact i think i will go do that right now
The Lost World: Jurassic Park is one of the most misunderstood works in Steven Spielberg's filmography, up in the ranking along with AI: Artificial Intelligence and War Horse. Without any dissection of its "playing God" themes that flowed through the original masterpiece, TLW instead deconstructs the hubris of the Dino Creators, showcasing a tale of gigantic mistakes under the guise of a Grade-A monster movie.
And even with the haunting message, Steven Spielberg never loses his sense of efficient and air-tight suspense, crafting multiple set-piece moments of masterful terror and immaculate direction. So many scenes visualize ingenious images of innocence and childlike wonder slowly dissolving into terror, with the highlight being a child annoyingly awakened by a T-Rex outside his…

"Don't worry, I'm not making the same mistakes again."
"No, you're making all new ones."
The cut from the woman screaming to Malcolm yawning is the greatest thing Spielberg has ever done.
I don't care. I just don't care if Steven Spielberg himself lost interest while filming this sequel because what he ended up putting on the screen is still, in my opinion, a worthy follow-up to its revolutionary predecessor. Its inevitable comparison to the original may have hurt its own identity but The Lost World: Jurassic Park remains a highly satisfying second chapter that offers its own set of thrills & entertainment which simply work.
Set 4 years after the events of the first film, the story follows Dr. Ian Malcolm who after a meeting with John Hammond assembles a team to set off to the Site B island (where dinosaurs are allowed to roam freely) in order to bring back his…
the most fascinating misfire. a director misunderstanding the appeal of his own biggest hit just four years on. there's so much to dig into. next season on blank check. also fuck trump
Give me Jeff Goldblum’s lanky, awkward physicality over Chris Pratt’s macho, mimbo, I-can-do-anything heroism any day. I just wish The Lost World had a better story, and especially some interesting villains. You can feel Spielberg’s disinterest in pretty much any scene that doesn’t involve frenetic dino action; at least the two big T. rex sequences — the one with the dangling trailer and then the rampage through San Diego — are showstoppers.
Also, someone beats a dinosaur with gymkata. That’s not nothing.
Strange film with a weak script living and dying on its set pieces (which are quite good.) All the actors are in different movies. Arliss Howard is doing Trevor Howard for some reason and Vince Vaughn is aggressively bad, unsure how to modulate his persona in a big production. Peter Stormare weirdly underplays things for the first and only time while Jeff Goldblum is Goldblumming at an extraordinary rate. This isn’t mailed in but it’s one of the only Spielberg films that isn’t really about anything—not even superficially. The feints to environmentalism and survivalism and parenthood are totally bunk. It’s just a monster movie, heavily honoring/indebted to/aping King Kong. Which is A-OK if it isn’t the sequel to one of the greatest popcorn movies ever that also smuggled big ideas about man’s Frankenstein-like desire to control life with the limited knowledge it has acquired. Oh well.
