It\\u2019s our follow-up to \\u201cAcademy Award nominees appearing in cash-grab sequels,\\u201d as we follow Batman Returns with The Lost World: Jurassic Park, featuring Academy Award Nominee Julianne Moore! Several years after the events of the first film, the almost unrecognizable Dr. Ian Malcolm heads to a second, \\u201clost\\u201d island where the dinosaurs have flourished in isolation to find Sarah (Moore), his dino expert girlfriend. For no reason, his 12-13 year old daughter tags along. But the environmental observation is ruined when a team of EVIL poachers appear, ready to embark on a plan 50X dumber and more irresponsible than Jurassic Park\\u2019s \\u201cclone dinosaurs and then make people buy plane tickets to come and see the dinosaurs.\\u201d Featuring an all-star supporting cast (Vince Vaughn, Pete Postlethwaite, Peter Stormare) and one of the best action directors ever, the film still manages to be pretty terrible, thanks largely to a script that makes characters actively sabotage their own survival for little to no reason and behave in incredibly dumb ways whenever the script demands.
