gore hound beware . this be not your movie . this little nail bitter have very little blood and gut . it basically a version of open water that be effective and worthwhile . but what set it apart be that we actually like the three lead ( unlike open water ) who find themselves up a tree when a crocodile flip their fishing boat and munch up their guide . we do not want any harm to come to any of them . so when they start get into dangerous situation . we actually care . now i like killer animal flick but i haven not be too impressed with lake placid up to primeval ( although i be still wait to see rogue and hop it be somewhere as good a this one . ) but this little bugger do the job and do the job well . it scar be creative and it only lapse into the run of the mill frantic cry sobbing and argue for brief stint of realism so i never get annoyed . i remember read the true story that inspire this where three guy go fish and two end up in a tree while their buddy be kill by the crocodile . but the thing that always impact me that get leave out from the film be that the crocodile do not eat up the buddy . no . for hour and hour he swim around the tree and shake the dead body still in his mouth at the friend in the tree . seem to stay and if you come down here this be what will happen to you .
