Supercroc (2007)

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

The acting is competent, with Kim Little (sort of resembles a Faith Ford and Elisabeth Shue hybrid which is kind of cool), playing her cards close to her chest as Government palaeontologist called in to advise on a giant crocodile that's been unearthed by an earthquake, threatening coastal towns en route to LA. Soldiers in the field (Hall & Blashaw) are being pursued by the indestructible behemoth with General (Novak), Little's character and other assorted advisors frantically co-ordinating efforts to control the beast's path of destruction from HQ.It's all digital camcorder, CGI, synthesiser-sound, cheap home movie stuff, and while the performances are probably better than average for this type of production, the overall result is lacklustre. A raft of audio-visual tricks that don't paper over the budget holes, no realistic interaction between actors and the title antagonist, MTV-style light, sound and editing techniques, masses of stock footage but most disappointing of all, precious little horror or suspense.It's the kind of movie that looks conceived and executed by visual artists instead of storytellers, all smoke & mirrors sans substance.

I just saw this movie. It reminds me of those "B" sci-fi movies that were produced in the 1950's about giant ants, and grasshoppers and things. I loved watching them as a kid and its good that somebody is bringing them back. Not a lot of graphic gore, just good, fun entertainment. Anyway, Supercroc is a budget film by Asylum pictures starring Cynthia Rose Hall and Matt Blashaw. Two outstanding up and coming young actors. I'm sure we'll be seeing more of them in the future. For an indie film it has some great photography and sound. All the actors in my opinion did a great job. The special effects were pretty good too considering that these are "low budget" films put out by Asylum. I just wish that it could have been a little bit longer than 85 minutes. The writing wasn't bad either but I got the feeling that maybe some of this movie was left on the cutting room floor which is too bad because it would have helped the continuity of the story if left in. In my opinion, if you enjoy watching these kinds of movies then you'll like this one too!

This movie is the "Robot Monster" of the 20th century, except not as funny. The special effects in the scene where the crocodile jumps up and attacks the helicopter are absolutely the worst CGI I have ever seen! The crocodile's first scene makes it look like a giant floating turd or a piece of cardboard. Also, the movie has the traditional bad-B-movie "scientist" who knows nothing about her field. In this one, the "scientist" lady makes a bunch of totally incorrect comments. She keeps referring to the croc as an "archosaur" as if that was a specific kind of prehistoric crocodile. It's really the group that includes all crocodiles, dinosaurs, and probably birds. She also says that its plating is so thick that it can't be hurt by "modern bullets". Have these paleontologists actually tested prehistoric species for bullet-proof-ness? Also, just HOW does a 100-foot crocodile weigh "ten thousand tons?" A 100-foot Blue Whale is a little under 200 tons! Even worse, the only reason the crocodile doesn't get bombed from the air is that it keeps disappearing. The military can't find a 100-foot crocodile in the area around Los Angeles? I didn't know there were that many vast wildernesses there, or that a whale-sized crocodile was so good at hiding (on land, no less!)Finally, for a monster movie, there isn't nearly enough action. I like mindless action movies, but this is kind of boring. All the inaccuracies and dumbnesses, maybe even the horrid special effects, could be forgiven if it was at least exciting - but no! It isn't even a good "mindless action movie". The only real "action" scene is right at the end when the croc gets blown up.
