The Lost World (1999)

Wonderful Movie

Too much of everything

Fresh and Exciting

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Its now September 2005, and I'm totally hooked. Missed this show when it was on originally but woke up early one morning and discovered this delightful tongue-in-cheek adventure. Of course the plots are silly, the acting will win no awards, but the chemistry of the characters is THERE. Will Snow, Rachel Blakely tease; Jennifer and David have you wondering; I, too, keep looking for that delightful "old" man; and I love waiting for the next "Challenger" brainstorm (the episode where he lost his memory was a standout). I recently saw Rachel B in a disaster-type cruise ship movie but am wondering where they all are now.I get up 90 minutes earlier than I need to in order to start my day off with coffee and a smile. I wish I could find the DVD for all the episodes for this has really become one of my favorites. Does anyone know where I can get them?

There is only one reason to stare at this: JO. And the character is appealing: she is "nice". Good lesson for dreadful TV producers like Rick Berman. More good points: great sense of humour in the writing and directing. Good casting. Good production values technically. Bad points: Far too violent, and in the non self-reflective way. Our heroes slice and dice all manner of life forms and this feels very good to them, which is a very bad example to set for children from the ages of 2 to...(how old are Cheney and the Bushboy?)...99. Storylines? Apart from the aforementioned humour they are irrelevant. As I say, just get on your exercise bike/treadmill for an hour and stare at JO, who is "cheekily" photographed from every possible angle, in every possible bodily position, and often with fluids applied, like water whenever possible, bee honey, or green slime which she gently massages into her cleavage. What can you do, really?

Awful TV show. Cheap cheesy effects and the dumbest most repetitive plots in all of TVdom. Can't hold a candle to any of the movie versions all of which are far, far better. Perhaps the only draw of this show is the fact that in the first season it featured a little bit of nudity. Nice gimmick, didn't ABC do that years ago?

Good show. The idea of a lost world is common theme in story telling. What I like most about this show are the women. Of course they are good looking, but they are strong and fearless. The sense of team is also a positive. The questions about Marguerite Krux's background and the growing sexual tension are interesting, but the attitude of "we all go or no one goes" is positive. I prefer that to shows where the point is bickering.
