The Lost World: Jurassic Park

I dont get the negative reviews for this one. this movie is the best in the entire franchise according to me... there are lot of dinosaurs plus some really nail biting moments. except for the gymnastics kick part the entire movie was amazing.. yes even better than the 1993 film

I like this movie as much as the first one. I like it because it's not Jurassic Park, it's completely different. It's dark and it's maybe the monster movie that Spielberg tried so hard to avoid in the first movie.

Jesus Fucking Christ how did i think this was good. like this movie is still a 9 and Superb. BTW my favourite scene is when they go into the long grass and 30 people just fucking die

the rope scene is still one of the most frustrating things ever.

I mean it could have been better than the 1st, but the raptor scenes and after are just major silly

This is much funnier than I remember, I was absolutely obsessed with this film as a child, and now I love it even more. The shots of classic American sweets, clunky technology and Blockbuster make this such a time capsule of a film.

Let’s be honest this sequel was never going to live up to the original but it’s not as bad as people say it is.

the story ain’t as good as the first film by any means to me it doesn’t feel like a Spielberg film not surprised he decided not to do the third film while saying that he still can’t make a bad movie and this still has some great parts.

Basically the story was John Hammond set up a team to go and research the dinosaurs and see how you’ve developed but there was a second team who just wanted to capture the dinosaurs for a new Jurassic park.

The little girl getting killed by a group of Compys was a brutal way to start the film.

One of the best scenes was Eddie trying to pull Up Malcom,Sarah and Nick van Owen up with a Rope after the trailer bus got pushed of the edge of the cliff by the T-Rex. Eddie using a car while I think it was abit unrealistic it was a cool scene felt really sorry for Eddie he saved them then got torn in half by two T-Rex’s.

Was so satisfying seeing stark getting eaten alive by the Compys unlike the start of the movie 😂 FairPlay to them even no there small they don’t give up and there’s many you’d have no chance viscous little shits.

Can’t believe that a guy would rather get eaten alive by a dinosaur than have a snake on him and I might be wrong but them snakes aren’t even dangerous 😅one of the best scenes of the movie.

The ending with rescue helicopters taking back the survivors but Peter Ludlow the one who wanted to start a new Jurassic park had Roland Tembo capture the mother and baby T-rex , he had a crowd gather to show of his new investment but the ship crashed into the dock after the T- Rex got free and killed the crew on board ,what does not make sense is the ship still got to where it was supposed to go did the T-Rex guide it there 😂

Peter Ludlow getting killed by the baby dinosaur after the mother stopped him stealing him again was hilarious he deserved it.

Overall this not anywhere near the quality of the first film but still as good parts and characters its a decent sequel.

Hey there, packmates and adventure-seekers! Kiba Snowpaw here, your HowlStrom ice wolf guide to the world of cinema. Today, let's explore "The Lost World: Jurassic Park" from 1997, the thrilling sequel to the original dino-epic. It's like revisiting an old hunting ground, only to find new surprises!

## Basic Plot Summary
In "The Lost World," we return to the world of dinosaurs, but this time on a different island, Site B. Dr. Ian Malcolm, the witty mathematician from the first film, leads the adventure to rescue his girlfriend, a paleontologist already on the island. They find more than they bargained for, with dinosaurs roaming free and a team from InGen, the company behind Jurassic Park, arriving to capture these magnificent beasts for a new park. It's a wilder, darker journey, like venturing further into uncharted territory in HowlStrom.

## Analysis/Evaluation
This sequel takes what worked in "Jurassic Park" and amplifies it – more dinosaurs, more action, and more suspense. It's like the difference between a light snowfall and a full-blown blizzard. Director Steven Spielberg knows how to keep your tail wagging with excitement and your eyes glued to the screen.

## Characters
Ian Malcolm, played by Jeff Goldblum, is as charismatic as ever, bringing humor and skepticism to the table. The new characters, like Sarah Harding, add fresh perspectives and their own touch of bravery to the story. They're like new members of a wolf pack, each with their own strengths and quirks.

## Structure
The movie's pacing is a bit like a hunt – it starts slow as the pack gathers, then explodes into action. The story takes its time to build up, setting the scene on the mysterious island, then races into intense dino-chases and close encounters. It's a rollercoaster of tension and excitement.

## Impact
While it may not have the same groundbreaking impact as the first movie, "The Lost World" still leaves its mark. It expands the Jurassic universe and explores new ethical dilemmas about these resurrected creatures. It's like discovering a new part of the forest in HowlStrom; familiar yet intriguingly different.

## Hook and Thesis
The hook of "The Lost World" lies in its exploration of a wilder, untamed dinosaur world. It taps into our fascination with these ancient creatures and the consequences of humanity's meddling with nature. It's a tale of wonder and caution, as thrilling as a night howl under a full moon.

## Praise and Critique
The film shines with its stunning visual effects and intense action sequences. The dinosaurs feel more real and dangerous than ever. However, the story sometimes treads familiar ground, and not all characters feel as developed as in the first movie. It’s like a hunting trail that you've run before – exciting, but lacking the thrill of the unknown.

## Evaluation
For fans of the first "Jurassic Park," and anyone who loves a good mix of adventure and dinosaurs, "The Lost World" is a worthwhile watch. It’s a cinematic escapade that offers excitement, thrills, and a bit of reflection on our relationship with nature.

## Comparison
Compared to the original "Jurassic Park," "The Lost World" is darker and more action-packed. It's like the difference between a calm snowy day and a wild winter storm in HowlStrom.

## Conclusion
In conclusion, "The Lost World: Jurassic Park" is a sequel that brings its own flavor to the Jurassic franchise. It’s a movie that, much like a daring adventure in the wilderness of HowlStrom, is thrilling, a little risky, and definitely worth the journey.

That’s the word from Kiba Snowpaw. Keep your fur thick and your curiosity alive. And remember, even in the world of prehistoric wonders, there’s always something new to discover! 🐺:t_rex:🌲🎬

Despite not living up to the magic of the original, this is a very worthy successor. It still has breathtaking moments, good action, plenty of dinosaurs, and still plenty of the Steven Spielberg charm. Would I recommend this to everyone? Not necessarily. But if you like the first, you will be satisfied with this entry in the series.

Rating: 3.5/5 - 8/10 - Would Recommend

This movie needs a little more affection. There are some really wonderful things scattered throughout it that are top notch. For one the Tyrannosaurs effects are absolutely amazing. Many of the other dinos are hit or miss in the realism department but the T-Rex really scores. No other movies can match the dinosaur effects of the Jurassic Park series and this one may do it the best of the three of those. Jeff Goldblum is back as Dr. Ian Malcolm and he's a really fun likable character. Goldblum brings the quirky like few other actors and his portrayal of Malcolm is played pretty straight for him. He's the hero of this movie but he's not a superhero. He's a mediocre father and boyfriend and seems to be a few steps behind at times. Speaking of superheroes Malcolm's daughter Kelly whose a gymnast has one of the outright corniest hero moments in any movie I've ever seen. And she's an annoying kid no less. Why oh why does Spielberg put these kinds of moments in his films? It's stunningly stupid...you'll know it when you see it. Another strike against this movie is Julianne Moore. Her Dr. Sarah Harding character is so unappealing. She is constantly putting her loved ones and cohorts in danger. Someone should have knocked her out and thrown her in one of the dinosaur cages. There is a great extended scene where a pair of T-Rex attack a couple of trailers that hang over the edge of a cliff. Spielberg really really turns up the tension nicely during this sequence. And I thought the scene of a T-Rex trampling through San Diego was wonderful and looked great. It was either a shot at the then upcoming 1998 Devlin/Emmerich "Godzilla" flick or a loving tribute to Toho's Big-G.
