Szczytowe osiągnięcie filmów science-fiction w okresie kina niemego. Pierwsza z ośmiu dotychczasowych adaptacji powieści Arthura Conana Doyle'a. Reporter Edward Malone pragnie poślubić Gladys Hungerford (Alma Bennett). Natomiast Gladys marzy o tym, aby poślubić mężczyznę wielkich czynów. Dlatego też Edward prosi redaktora naczelnego swojego pisma, o zadanie przeprowadzenia wywiadu z Profesorem Challengerem (Wallace Beery), który planuję wyprawę do Zaginionego Świata. Malone wraz z profesorem jadą do Południowej Ameryki. W czasie wyprawy Malone zakochuję się w innej kobiecie, Pauli White (Bessie Love). Na miejscu znajdują prehistoryczny świat, pełen dinozaurów. Ledwo uchodzą z życiem, ale udaje im się przywieść jednego dinozaura do Londynu. Bestia jednak ucieka i zaczyna terroryzować miasto... (Mayfly)

The magic of adventure escapism. The story arc is very simple and very melodramatic, as befits the early beginnings of cinema, but it still works very well and its archetype foreshadows legendary works such as the original King Kong and the relatively young Jurassic Park. What's more, the miniatures and special effects are really superb, which (especially in the bombastic last half-hour) would have been almost entirely at home in a film three decades younger – yes, Lost World surpasses in many ways even many American sci-fi films made in the 1950s and 60s. A genre milestone.

A classic work, whose creators the film world owes much to. Compared to the (eight years younger) King Kong, The Lost World is much more (unintentionally) funny and at times very naive, but then again - if it wasn't for this film, we might not have seen the story of the great ape. Moreover, the future Kong animators have gotten their hands on stop-motion animation (the lizard fights still look very good), and all things considered, and if I may make one not-so-fair comparison, they've brought a lot more dinosaurs to life here than Steven Spielberg and his crew did in Jurassic Park. And the ending with the brontosaurus in the city? Unprecedented. In 1925, the world must have been shocked.

Of course, what mainly interested me in this movie were the special effects, which for their time were almost unbelievable. The way stop-motion animation is handled here just looks good, and yet the film was shot several years before the legendary King Kong. True, the fights aren't long, but the dinosaur movements are worth it.
