I went to this film, expecting nothing else than to see
perhaps a good sequel to (In my opinion) a good film (Jurassic Park), I knew
that it was going to be about 2 ½ hours long (Pretty long!) and that it
starred Jeff Goldblum, Julliane Moore, and that Richard Attenborough was in
there again somewhere. What I ended up seeing wasn't much less than a Highly
enjoyable film! It had far more special effects and they were more impressive
than last time...it seemed as if more work was put into the effects to make them
MORE believable!.

There was also a lot more tense scenes that kept you 'glued'
to the screen & on the edge of your seats. In my humble opinion, the whole
film was almost like a ride at Universal Studios or something, but one thing is
for sure...if you see the film in a cimena without Dolby Digital Sound
Techology, then you WILL be missing out on SO much! Don't get me wrong, the
film doesn't rely on LOUD SOUND or anything, but, it makes it more impressive! |

Admittedly there is about as much plot as the first one,
well, maybe less...(But MORE Plot than Batman & Robin!). The Isle Nebular,
(where Jurassic Park was set) was not the only island used by Ingen to Breed
Dinosaurs. Isle Sombla was used as a place to actually conceive the Dinosaurs,
then they were shipped to Isle Nebular where they were bred etc...Dr Hammond
organises an expedition to 'Observe' these Dinosaurs in an almost Natural
habitat, but Hammond has lost control of the Ingen, so all Hell breaks loose as
Ingen tries to Capture Dinosaurs to bring them back to a 'Park' in San Diego.
From there the film features Great Special FX, Good acting (Yes, there is alot
of it!), and lots of tense moments which were the best bits of Jurassic Park!
(Spielberg obviously realised this after seeing Filmgoer's reactions to the
First film). |

All in all, this is a good all-round Family film that is
possibly too scary for Kids under 7 (I rekon Spielberg has a pull with the
Censors committee somehow!). You will not be disappointed!!!
