In this sequel to Jurassic Park, John Hammond sends Ian Malcolm to a second island. At first Ian refuses to go but when he finds out that John has already sent his girlfriend to the island he accepts. Only he calls it, "a rescue mission" instead. On this second island, the dinosaurs are allowed to run freely without fences and control like in the first Jurassic Park. John Hammonds team is unaware however that there is another team on the island, led by Hammond's ignorant nephew. This other team is planning to capture one of each species and bring it back to San Diego for an amusment park. Hammonds team goes in and sabotages the others project, but not before they encounter near death experiences with a certain T-Rex. The tow teams finally join forces because all the animals were set loose and are now on a rampage. Nothing tops it off though, like the Veloca Raptors, which are the smartest dinosaurs on the island. As the newly formed team gets picked off one by one, it is up to Ian Malcolm to save the day.
