it's very funny that in retrospect (and i am absolutely guilty of this myself) what most people remember about this movie is the 20 minutes of San Diego Dinosaur Apocalypse and not the other 1h40m of... mostly characters facing off against environmental dangers like falling off cliffs or whatever? but i guess that's not that unreasonable given that the San Diego stuff -- and especially the introductory moments of the San Diego stuff -- have such a creeping, unreal horror to them. It is the on...| letterboxd.com
I think i would say i am a "fan of jurassic park". but even in comparison to me saying "i am a fan of star wars" where if you really drill down into it i'm really a fan of like 1/3 of star wars output and then the "star wars vibe", i similarly am a fan mostly of "the movie jurassic park and then things that remind me of the good parts of jurassic park". this movie does not particularly do that. idk, i remember watching this around the time of release and thinking it wasn't bad. and i guess| letterboxd.com
Fantastically stupid film. Way too long. Filled to the brim with utterly "why the fuck did they do that" sort of sequences. Why is there a full on five minute "drowning escape" sequence?

it's easy to see why they stopped making JP movies after this one (for a while, at least) because like, it seems like they don't really care? about the core premise? anymore? i mean like other than Specific Brand Names (ingen) and the inclusion of (2) returning characters, this might as well have been called Escape From Dinosaur Island and nothing would be different. This is not a movie about "Jurassic Park". This is a movie about a bunch of dipshits going to an evil island and only one Epic ...| letterboxd.com

today i watched Fantasy Island (2020), which is a movie that was meant to be a prequel to the 1970s TV show "Fantasy Island" but due to the overall response...| videodante
