This movie had a darker, more chaotic energy to it compared to the first! The dinosaurs felt less like marvels of science and more like ticking time bombs ready to go off at any minute. I guess as a viewer, we also carry that same PTSD that Dr. Chaos had throughout this entire film. I wanted to reach through the screen and shake everyone and yell "TURN BACK. Don't go to the island, again!?" lolLudlow was an immediate slimy antagonist. I felt a mix of frustration and dread every time he spoke. He just doesn't get it or see anything other than dollar signs. At least his father had a vision. A dream. Ludlow just sees profit. And after looking back at Roland. I connected with him much more than I thought I would. Despite being a hunter, he wasn't driven by cruelty. Not really. And his final line about losing the taste for hunting after losing his friend was deeper than I first realized. He was the one person on Ludlow's entire team that actually seemed to see the dinosaurs for what they truly are: wild, majestic, and never meant to be caged. The first half of this movie was intense, suspenseful, and serious. But once the freighter crashed into San Diego harbor, and the Trex was left to just casually stroll into the suburbs like it was on a coffee run, I lost it hahaha. It almost felt like a satire of itself, and I absolutely loved it for that! It was chaotic, ridiculous and completely broke away from the tone of the rest of the movie. It felt almost like Spielberg just said, "You know what? Let's go full Godzilla for a bit." And honestly? I respect that.Overall, I loved this film for what it was. A branch into the next one! It raised so many important questions about the future of Jurassic Park and the dinosaurs that have been allowed to roam free for the past 4 years without any intervention. None of these questions were cleaned up with easy answers. And that makes me wonder what happens next???

Looking forward to this, Kali! 🦖 You said the latter half of the movie looked "full Godzilla for a bit". Absolutely intentional! At 1:53:24, there's a five-second scene of pedestrians running from the T-rex. For the first few seconds, the four men in the foreground are clearly of Japanese ancestry, an obvious homage to the granddaddy of all reptilian monsters! 😁

Next one is my favorite... Probably because it's the most horror element out of all of them 😂

Here’s a little 2 min video made by the Lost World Jurassic Park crew as a thank you to Steven Spielberg. I hope you’ll like it 🤞 https://youtu.be/g5cSnYgb-Dk?si=kyXonX_oCH2MHKal (Oh btw, Compy is short for Procompsognathus, the tiny dinosaurs that attacked the girl on the beach.)

The guy who gets killed by the Compy's (the small dinosaurs) was mumbling swear words in swedish. He (Peter Stormare) was one of few actors from Sweden in Hollywood back then. It was a great way to get around the PG-13 rating and became "his thing" in future movies after Lost World.

fun movie ^^ RIP MVP Eddie (he tried his best..) and the family doggo. I guess the limp Malcolm got for half the movie was from the "quick descent" from the high hide? now.. we'd think we learned our lesson.. yet there's.. * checks paper * FIVE..(?!) more to go lol.. guess we'll see how this goes 😭 (which reminds me of this improv' skit from dropout.. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/-NtEoWjJqHM ) thanks for the watch c:

I.Have.No.Band

oh and the tarkov reference cracked me up.. I keep forgetting you dabbled in it x) I would have loved to enjoy that game but I had too much gear anxiety and I kept dying so I gave up..

kaliwali

LOL I had a feeling but wasn't sure bc I haven't seen Godzilla yet! But i'm excited to finally watch those when I can get around to them!

kaliwali

I'mmmmmmmm not sure what to make of that thank you video 🤣😂😅 But thank you for sharing it hahaha

Ah yes, now I remember why I never rewatched this movie before. My biggest issue with all of the Jurasic Park movies after the 1st is that none of them have a good plot; they are full of plot holes and is honestly just a bunch of big set pieces that are the purpose of the show to a horribly constructed and weak plot that attempts and fails to come up with a semblance of a story

Scott S

The commentary had me laughing a good bit, especially the 'back it up Terry'.. lolol

Funny enough, I probably watched this one more often in my childhood than I watched the first one (I don't know why) and yet I still remembered the first one much better. There are things that happened in this movie that I would have sworn happened in the third, so I guess I don't really remember the third? That'll be interesting. Vince Vaughn played a much bigger role in this movie than I remembered too, but I ain't mad about that. I'm actually a Vince Vaughn fan, and I wouldn't have minded if he'd been allowed to turn up the "Vince Vaughn" dial in this movie a little more, but I think this must have been one of his first big roles. I certainly had no clue who he was back in the days of watching this. Also, the guy who played the dad in the British family in the beginning is a guy I now recognize from Buffy. Funny how that happens.

After seeing how much you loved Dr. Chaos in the first film, I was really excited to see you get into this one knowing he's the lead! It's hard to replicate that feeling of seeing the dinosaurs for the first time. But even still, with the world already established, I loved how this was able to branch on the themes from the first one and create a really fun rollercoaster ride! Funny with Dr. Chaos in the leading role now, this movie's whole theme was chaos hahaha. Especially with the T-rex running loose in San Diego. Love the scene with the T-rex's pushing the RV off the cliff for the same reason. Just so much going on. Also, have to add that if they brought over the Jurassic Park Jeeps instead of those dingy Mercedes SUV's, those RV's would have been pulled back up for sure LOL

Mister Lou

great reaction! I love this movie, it's quirkiness and what not, I can nit pick these plot holes all day long, but at the end of it, it's just a fun ride. And don't babe ashamed in forgetting the title of the next movie, no one remembers it! It's very forgettable, like the movie itself. Just call it Jurassic Park III for all I care.. oh, wait--

Phil Stubblefield

Having now watched your reaction, I have a few comments: While I do enjoy this sequel, it doesn't even come close to the original. Jeff Goldblum redeems it almost single-handedly, aided of course by some stunning CGI! As you say, it contains many silly scenes, but the one that annoys me the most is the "gymnastics" scene. If Kelly had just jumped down, swung off of one pipe, and kicked the raptor in order to save her father, then *maybe* I could believe it. But the film stretches that scene out over almost 20 seconds, with her repeatedly rotating and swinging, as if to remind we stupid viewers that, "Oh, yeah, she's a gymnast." So. Incredibly. Stupid. 🤦 However, to me, the biggest idiocy in the script is the idea that an experienced field biologist, widely known for her expertise in dealing with carnivores, would continue to wear a jacket covered with an animal's blood, especially when the group already suspects that they're being hunted. Pure lunacy! 😖 I don't think the third film is any better, but it's still an enjoyable summer flick, and I look forward to watching it with you!

OK, so trying to keep my comments more succinct so they are not a burden to get through. First - WOW you really do not like snakes. I'll make sure any future movie tickets do not have snakes! That was genuine fear you displayed. This second film is the only other one to be based off a book, and it deviates WILDLY from the source material. It's barely the same story lol. One thing to know from the first book/film is that everyone involved had so sign a NDA which means that they couldn't talk about what happened on the island. Dr Chaos may have violated that agreement which could explain his animosity toward Hammond's nephew. Some of the characters do dumb things in this one, particularly Sarah Harding who does stuff like constantly telling others not to do things she immediately does, or vice versa. For example: touches the Stegosaurus baby, walks around with T-Rex baby blood on her shirt right after telling everyone what a powerful sense of smell the T-Rex has. She was annoying at times. And then stuff like the "defying physics and gravity" with the trailers hanging over the cliff. The pros are; the dinosaur effects are still top notch and there is plenty of excitement and action. And of course the Malcolm character always has tons of charisma. One of my favorite actors. Some of the plot holes made for fascinating fan theories over the years. How about this one: everyone on the boat that crashes in San Diego is dead, yet somehow the T-rex is still locked up below. Your theory Kali . . . ?

Nice reaction Kali! Haven’t watched this one in a very long time. Now I remember why 😉 Just kidding! I did find Julianne Moore’s character pretty hypocritical though. She lectures everyone that they’re there only to observe and document. Then the next minute she’s petting a baby dinosaur 😄 And everyone’s decision making was so terrible 😭 Stunts were pretty cool. I liked the sequence with the trailer hanging over the cliff. And the T-Rex looks good. The CGI holds up pretty well Overall though, I prefer the first movie more

Kristoffer

I dont know if you have noticed but Ian Malcolms (AKA Dr Chaos) Actor also plays The Grand Master in Thor Ragnarok in the mcu, lmao.

Kristoffer

I gotta say dying to the compys (the little green dinos) is prob the worst way to go... Oh and Kali Jurassic Park 3 is my personal favourite, so dont get bothered by the the more you wtach the worse it gets.

DarthChef

Your feeling of this movie having a more darker tone is intentional. Many directors, like Steven Spielberg, who make sequels try and give it a darker tone or more ominous feel. As an example; Empire Strikes Back, or The Winter Soldier, which in itself is a sequel to Captain America, First Avenger. People will have their opinions about all of the later movies to come, but it's all just summer popcorn movies (which is your whole intention of watching these movies). Enjoy them for the thrill and ride you get from them.

Richard

One other thing, please don’t change because of a minority on YouTube who want you to sit there stone-faced while Tony Stark sacrifices himself for mankind. We always want your genuine reactions no matter what they are. 😊

Daniel Watches

I hope you do JP3. It's underrated and over-hated. Surprisingly, opinions about it have turned around over the years and some would even argue it's better than 2. Just saying!

McShades

The Jurassic Park movies are just fun Summer Popcorn movies. Something to see with your friends during Summer Break.
