What's the condition of the game you are trying to play? Also, is the problem reoccurring in most/all PS2 DVD games you are trying to play? If you answered yes to my previous question, then it could be that your PS2's laser is getting quite old, and you may need to consider finally replacing that laser although there are a few other things I believe you can do to salvage the life of your laser as much as you can before it go bye-bye.
I don't have much experience in this particular method so I'll just recommend it for you to do. Basically, if I can recall correctly, the fat older generation PS2s basically have like 2 lasers (is what I would call them). 1 laser for reading the CDs or PSX games and PS2 CD-based games, those blue-colored, and the other for reading your PS2 DVD games, the ones that are silver.
Basically, if you're willing to do so, which is opening your PS2, I believe you can do two things while attempting to squeeze as much life out of your PS2's laser before you must decide to get a replacement or whatever. Anyway, you can either try to adjust the DVD and CD diodes on your PS2 which would therefore increase the omhz or something, the laser's frequency or whatever it's called, into using more power in read your DVDs. Look up more on diode adjustment as I have no experience in this other than witnessing it a few times and people asking around here.
The other thing you might want to do is do a laser re-alignment, which is basically adjusting the height of the laser to either lower or higher to read your games depending if you have or still have trouble getting your games to work after adjusting the diode.
Also, by the way, use a can of compressed air or something and clean your PS2 if you find it is quite dusty and dirty.
