Pretty much every movie based on a Crichton novel except the first Jurassic Park and the original 1971 adaptation of The Andromeda Strain. Every other one has been awful (including The Lost World which is so far from the book it shouldn’t even get to be called “based on”).
I agree it is acceptable, I don’t often miss an opportunity for a marathon- it just isn’t really true to the book, it’s more like bits of the book are scattered throughout the movies.
And I’m really upset that Hammond didn’t get eaten cause that would have been awesome.

Except that the first Jurassic Park movie is only one small part of the book and they never let Hammond get eaten like he was supposed to.
Endless disappointment on that front, but I still love the movies.
Oh, I didn’t mean it was perfect, just acceptable. lol
I’m still holding out for a streaming mini-series that is a 1:1 adaptation of the book. I just can’t let that dream go.

I’ve never read Congo, but I enjoyed the movie.
Stop eating my sesame cake.
The movie may be ridiculous, but it is also fabulous.
I’ve read it but never seen the movie. lol. Based on the other bad adaptations, I assumed it was one as well. Will check it out sometime!
Haha. I was hoping you could comment on the movie. Oh well - I hope you do enjoy it!
I’ve never watched Disclosure nor finished the book, but it seems like one of the few they should have been able to get right.
I enjoyed Sphere, but I haven’t read the book and watched the movie close enough to compare them.
