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
Jeff Goldblum not a leading man here, and has new daughter? Movie kicks in around 40 minute mark after the two to four different plots are set up. But then the dinosaur shit is good as hell. Fun movie. Hard not to be harsh in comparison to the first, which was one of the great movies. As good as a Jurassic Park sequel was going to be. John Williams having fun with congas, nothing wrong with that. Love to all.
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."
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.
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
A low for Spielberg and an almost low for everyone involved. Unpopular opinion but Goldblum is actually alright being the lead, and he’s very fun too, so I don’t blame him for this failure
1997 Universal logo is 25 years old and I refuse to believe this is its debut. Never ages and while I like the current one too, this is the one I grew up on
