Jurassic Park Lost World
Ok so it doesn't have the intrigue or surprise factor of the first one. The ending once it transfers to San Diego is also ridiculous. Why didn't they just crash the ship into the arena killing the last remaining dinosaurs, destroying the arena, and ruining InGen once and for all?
However. It still has Steven Spielberg on top form behind the camera and Jeff Goldblum in front of it. There are some amazing sequences, like the TRex/van/cliff bit and the raptor attack in the long grass. Pete Postlethwaite is great as the lead hunter.
The plot does tend to rely on extremely intelligent people doing really stupid things.
But I'm still entertained. The pluses outweigh the minuses for me.
8/10
