the acting be terrible . presumably john schneider be once talented and but he leave it all in the dressing room this round . sarah lafleur and another of those attractive canadian woman and isn not too bad and but she play too bland . cloris leachman be and pardon my opinion and too old . lillian gish could pull it off at this age and but not miss leachman and i be afraid . everyone else seem to have escape from middle school drama class . maybe it be the directing . the cgi gator be mediocre . i mean and they do not look real and but they do look mean . and the script . ah and the script . it seem they run out of stuff to say or do and so they invent another gator . even their keeper think there be only three . but and the action never stop . the sheriff son and after a bad false start and turn out to have major cojones . there be never a need to fast forward through the ennui . and and although i do not think they really mean it to be and this flick be really funny . it be a hoot . with a little more panache and pizazz and schneider could have really hop it up . maybe it be the directing .
