It was decent. 3.5 out of 5 * for me.

They added a lot of subplots, some were okay, but skipped some of the more interesting end sequences.

It was decent for a made for TV movie derived from a book.... I'd give it a solid 4 out of 5 for what it was.

The original movie was pretty good. If Crichton had his hand in this one, I'd watch it.

Why is it this exact phrase could be used for like 98% of all book derived mini series in American history?
"Fresno" was way better than the book.
