Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
In the low tradition of knockoff horror flicks best seen (or not seen) on a drive-in movie screen, Steven Spielberg's sequel to Jurassic Park is a poorly conceived, ill-organised film that lacks story and logic. Screenwriter David Koepp strings along a number of loose ideas while Jeff Goldblum returns as Ian Malcolm, the quirky chaos theoretician who now reluctantly agrees to go to another island where cloned dinosaurs are roaming freely. Along with his girlfriend (Julianne Moore) and daughter, Malcolm has to deal with hunters, environmentalists, and corporate swine who stupidly bring back a big dino to Southern California, where it runs amok, of course. Spielberg doesn't seem to care that the pieces of this project don't add up to a real movie, so he hams it up with big, scary moments (with none of the artfulness of those in Jurassic Park) and smart-aleck visual gags (a yapping dog in a suburb mysteriously disappears when a hungry T-rex stomps by). A complete bust.--Tom Keogh

Format:DVD
TLW certainly blew me away the first time I saw it. It's storyline isn't amazing, but the supporting cast and visual treats make this film a classic in my opinion.
One thing you should never do is compare the film to the book, because they are just too different. The film is excellent in it's own right, and the book is good in it's own right.
Also, I'd just like to say that there is are a few funny bits here and there that make the film even better. A definate must-buy for any dino fan.

Format:VHS Tape
This is a brilliant film, me and my children have lost count of the times that it has been watched. I especially enjoyed the T-rex in this video. Another thing that I found good was that it played along brilliantly as a sequel to the first Jurrassic Park, usually some films do not seem to stick to the stories of the films involved but I found that this one did quite nicely.

In this second installment of Jurassic Park, Jeff Goldblum takes over from Sam Neill for one film as the lead actor.
From the bizarre opening sequence to the thrilling chase in San Diego, this film will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish.
John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) reveals to Ian Malcolm (Goldblum) that there was another island on which the dinosaurs were bred. He also tells Malcolm that his girlfriend Sarah Harding, is already there.
So off sets Ian with two sidekicks to find here.
A little while after, he realises that another team are there to capture the dinosaurs alive and use them as tourist attractions.
My favourite parts were the trailer brawl with the T-Rexes and the trouble Dieter Stark finds himself in after he wanders off and attacks a compy.
If you enjoyed Jurassic Park 1, The Lost World's even better!
A big thumbs up from me to the Jurassic Park series!

The weak link in an otherwise outstanding trilogy.
