The Lost World

A well done TV-level adaptation somewhat elevated by its trio of veterans; Hoskins, Fox and Falk are all terrific and their interplay together is the highlight of overlong but satisfying adventure tale. There's nothing that dates a movie more than CGI, but given its station and likely budget, the effects work is pretty good, and the location filming gives it an extra visceral charge, especially during the terrifying cliff crossing at the midpoint!

The CGI is dreadful, and yah there's nothing worse than bad CGI to drag down a movie. But in spirit, if not in letter, this is quite faithful to Conan Doyle's novel, it has a terrific cast (Bob Hoskins is WONDERFUL as Challenger, in quite a different way than Wallace Beery was equally wonderful in the same part); an adventure with social conscience. The greatest thing since sliced bread? Nah. But rather engaging and undeserving of the harsh words heaped upon it.

A pretty good and entertaining adaptation of the material. I have hardly anything to criticize about, it's exactly what you would and could expect for a TV version, but this time in a positive sense =) Aside from Peter Falk's Reverend Theo... (invented for the show) once again, as in so many Movies and Shows from the 90s and early 2000s, they have tried to force a theological perspective into something even though no one asked for it... it comes across as a mockery once again.

Good version of the classic tale.

Good interpretation of the Doyle book with decent production values. Considering this is an A&E movie, the CGI and special effects makeup are pretty stellar. Highly recommended for a rainy day viewing.
