The Lost World(2001)
The Lost World Synopsis
This Lost World is a splendid BBC TV dramatisation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's famous adventure story. Bob Hoskins makes an unusually genial Professor Challenger, far less of a bully than Doyle's character, but his slightly stereotyped companions are nicely filled out by a solid cast. James Fox is Challenger's more timid but still covertly adventurous rival, Tom Ward is the moustachioed big game hunter who faces an Allosaurus with an elephant gun, and Matthew Rhys plays the tagalong reporter hoping to impress his faithless fiancée.
The Lost World (2001) is a adventure, fantasy, science fiction and tv movie film directed by Stuart Orme, released on December 25, 2001 with a runtime of 2h 30m. It stars Bob Hoskins, James Fox, Tom Ward and Matthew Rhys. Viewers rate it 6.2 out of 10 across 75 ratings.
