I've seen a lot of crocodile movies lately. This one is way behind. The cgi will disappoint straight away. The crocodile isn't that big, and it's simply not scary. There's a homespun down South hospitality to the plot, and the script, but its so ordinary. Near the end it's suddenly not that ordinary. This is student quality, and one that needs correction. The story is the main let down (the actors are reasonable with what they have to work with). There are too many holes. And when one of those holes turns out to be intended, well, it's a wow moment. I got to that wow moment. It was ambitious I guess. I don't hate this movie, but it's a fine line. It turned out to be just odd enough, just entertaining enough, that I forgave it.
