I really liked this adaptation of The Lost World although it was obviously made on a low budget for a young audience. It reminded me of programmes I used to watch with my children such as Lost in Space and the early years of Star Trek - all mixed up with the Tarzan adventures. Every episode is a complete story involving strange people and prehistoric animals, the monsters get killed but there is no blood, etc. and nothing to really terrify children.
Rent this to watch with your kids and I promise you that perhaps you will not particularly enjoy the sometimes corny dialogue or the rather primitive special effects but your pleasure will come from watching your children enjoy the story lines and amazing feats performed by the cast.
This is certainly not in the same league as programmes like Lost or 24 but it is still worth renting and I swear your children will love it.
well it is not Jurassic Park and the effects may not quite be top notch but as a weekly series The Lost World does a fine job providing plenty of action and entertainment for the whole family ..nothing too scary to frighten the kids but also adult enough to keep grown ups watching . You have a couple of handsome and fearless men to pull in the ladies and two sexy and spunky women to keep the men happy . The stories are usually pretty good each week and of course the underlying theme of the series ...for the adventurers to find a way back home to civilisation ..
