Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
View MoreOne of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
View MoreIt is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
View MoreYes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
View MorePretty decent Sci-Fi monster movie. And it didn't involve Phillip Roth! I remember watching it on the Sci-Fi channel as a kid. I liked large reptiles, so this movie appealed to me. I actually own the movie. This is a good Sci-Fi movie. It isn't a regular Crocodile movie. I haven't seen all of the 1st one, but it's about kids on spring break getting attacked by a local Crocodile. THIS MOVIE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT. And because of that I like this one better. There are 2 things in this movie, though, that I seriously question anyone involved in the production. I mean there IQ must be lower than a plant if they didn't catch that it might be stupid. But, it's a Sci-Fi movie, so what do you expect. #1: Crocodile 2: Death Swamp, how shall we start it? Bank robbery=perfect. Yes, it's true. That's the first one. So next, how do we get from a bank robbery to a swamp? That's right plane high-jacking. So the 1st half hour is not that of expected, but that's what makes it an above average Sci-Fi movie. Now I'm not going to explain everything that happens in the swamp, so I'll just summarize it. Giant Crocodile follows people and eats them. Now I'll talk about good things. Pretty good characterization. I mean, we don't everyone personal reasons, but we get a good idea of the robbers and some of the passengers. The final scene is pretty cool, too. The main character has a nightmare, and wakes up. Suddenly we see the swamp where the Crocodile lives. Tense music comes, and suddenly you hear the roar of the Crocodile. Just a cool little thing. The movie doesn't just focus on the Crocodile, which is good, but has good character conflict. CGI can always be better in Sci-Fi movies, but is OK. This movie shouldn't win an award, but if it's on TV, or at blockbuster, it is worth the watch. (Oh yeah, just about everyone is a potty mouth, just about every minute of the movie. Just a warning.)
View MoreI bought this film in a boxset with 9 other movies. I expect you've all heard of the Shark Attack Trilogy... that was in there.Upon returning from the pub, me and my housemate decided to give this one a whirl.Easily the greatest B movie ever made! The pair of us watched Crodile 1 the night before, but this one just blew us away.There is quite a bit of character development, in fact, you can get so into the characters that you can almost forget there was a crocodile anyway!Not great acting by a long shot but great backgrounds and stories. Swearing was a bit o.t.t. though which starts to detract from the believability of the main characters, but some subtle humour to make up for it.The crocodile didn't disappoint either. Yes; it's a bit shoddy and you can see it's blatantly cgi. The whole point in these films is that it doesn't matter. The film is just there to be enjoyed.And trust me when I say this one was.
View MoreOkay, The idea is to count how many times the lead bad guy says "motherf***er". I'm telling you, it can't be done. It's the only swear word he knows. Script writing is a class act.I always enjoy the sort of movies where the creature appears to be some form of sub-plot in the movie, you know, gang raid a bank, try to escape to Mexico, plane crashes etc, then in the last twenty minutes a crocodile arrives! What's that all about? Still For other movies where the creatures are side plots, or just barely exist, see Shark Attack and Spiders 2.Well worth a watch if you are into trashy bad movies. It's just a bit too good to be rated in the bottom 100. The acting is only below average, the SFX almost look acceptable, and there is obviously a fair budget put behind this movie.
View More... but this one takes the cake!First of all, if people tell you this is a B-flick, ignore them. This isn't even a D-flick. The special affects of the monster are pretty much the cheapest you will ever see, unless your nephew makes a horror movie with Dad's camcorder.OK, so it was bad. Let's focus on what was good. Nothing.Now that we have gotten that out of the way, let's look at some details. I am not even going to mention that idiot who gets up after being soaked in water about a dozen times and lights a dry cigar. Probably Cuban. So, I mentioned him anyway. Sue me.What else is there to say? I cannot believe Jeffrey Combs played in this movie - he played all sorts of frucks on Star Trek (just as badly I might add! Just imagine he was once considered as Commander Riker. Barf!). In this one he was the master thespian who portrayed 'Jack - gimme that Wiskey with the blond's pills in it', the really vicious bad guy who - big surprise - gets eaten. You'll probably sleep when he appears, so you won't remember.Any other details that will go down in the annals of movie history? Oh, yes. I almost forgot. Wanna see a croc jump out of the water and eat a helicopter? Well, this movie is for you!This super duper monster croc dies because the lead ditch (I think that should be spelled with a 'b') spills about 5 gallons of fuel on the water. What a devious plan. And high tech, too! Seriously, they spill a little fuel on the water and the darn thing goes splat. It was probably glad the movie was over. If it hadn't been, I would have doused myself in a little fuel.Sometimes you see a movie and it makes you understand things. I now know what that silly monk in Vietnam was thinking those many years ago, when he lit himself on fire. He saw this movie coming. I guarantee it, no matter how that is spelled!Well, I feel much better now. MikeP.s.: OK, I take back that stuff about the lead ditch and needing to spell that with a 'b'. Heidi Lenhart deserves better work than this. And she is pretty!
