if your go to produce a special effect movie and at least have the basic with which to carry it off . the lost world be one of my favourite book a a child and previous translation to the big screen have be ok and at best . however although the acting be certainly acceptable and the budget for the effect must have be raise by a quick whip round of the star and crew . awful doesn not even come close . the main creature ( king kong who wasn not feature in the original story anyway ) look like and move like a glove puppet . anyone over 7 who go to see this be go to come away extremely disappointed . bruce boxleitner have appear in many sci fi tv series and movie and do his best to carry off this film but he be fight a losing battle i be afraid . with the technology thats available today for create believable cgi effect and it inexcusable to release such a sub standard movie and especially when it seem to be release on the back of the new blockbuster king kong . when low cost tv sci fi be be produce now and with quite acceptable visual effect and i fail to understand that those responsible for the graphic effect would deem this movie fit for human viewing .
