M: Yes, I think the pictures are beautiful. And I know some reviewers observed that this movie might actually be a milestone in movie making. It took US $17 million on its first weekend, a more than respectable total.
W: Oh? They really said so? But I think it's a story less movie, although it's a big budget one. Don't you think it resembles video games, the crafted aliens, a deafening sound track, and striking minor characters--it has no coherent story to hang it all on.
M: I quite agree with you. Story is the soul of a meaningful film, the key to involving the audience emotionally.
W: I used to like Steven Spielberg. His work had always been a balance of story and technical things. But in his most recent movie, The Lost World, the sequel to Jurassic Park, the story is almost an afterthought to the spectacle. The dinosaurs are rediscovered and again eat a lot of people, which character development hardly gets a look in. The film simply relies on action to keep the drama going.
M: But thanks to a US $ 40 million market campaign, The Lost World broke all box office records for its first four days and Steve Spielberg was tipped to earn from the movie far more than that $ 300 million he collect ed from Jurassic Park.
