John Schneider, Sam McMurray (2007) A sheriff, a big-game hunter and a wildlife officer try to kill three giant crocodiles.
Sci Fi Saturday movie from 5/23.
I'm going to start a new feature on my blog for movie reviews. Length of time it takes for a female character to end up nekkid or in her underwear. Since when I hit the stop button, the DVR tells me how much of the movie is remaining, I can have a decent idea of when it happens. For this one, it took 10 minutes for her to get into her underwear. Jumped into the water to fish up a decapitated head, and didn't want to get her Fish and Game Service uniform dirty or wet.
Also, remember how I ranted about the lack of a comma before the "and" in a list? Because this one has the same problem. Damned SciFi Channel and their improper use of the English language. or at least improper in my opinioin.
And again at 29 minutes in. Different character this time. And another one shortly thereafter
Also, in case you were wondering, bad CG is in fact bad...
And they just strapped a gigantic harpoon gun onto a rather small boat. Looks kinda hilarious.
And apparently people from Maine bury their dead in gigantic piles of brush. Or at least they seem to think that gigantic brush piles look like graves...
SPAS 12, not so much an automatic shotgun. Totally a pump.
And apparently only 1 in 3 people from Maine can correctly identify and egg as an egg.
Also, I'm never naming my child "Thad". Its a stupid sounding name, and they're likely to turn into a gigantic jerk anyways... And then get eaten by a gigantic crocodile. Which really serves this guy right... And not only is he getting et, but he's actually getting his junk chewed on by a gigantic crocodile. Talk about unpleasant ways to go...
Are you familiar with the term "Nantucket Sleigh Ride"? Because I'm pretty sure that's what's gonna happen with this whole boat/harpoon gun combo.
Also, I"m pretty sure that whoever made this movie, has no actual idea of how SONAR works...
And apparently when you tear the pontoons off of a seaplane in mid flight, it doesn't really affect the airplane's flight, aside from tearing the undercarriage off, and having the pilot fall out the bottom of the plane. Even though there isn't even a hole in the bottom of the CG airplane...
Also, there are 2 people with accents in this movie. Both of which randomly lose their accents when they're not speaking in a normal tone of voice...
Also, this movie seems to have done away with the tried and true "Crotchety Old Man" character, in favor of the Crotchety Old Woman...
By the way, I approve of any movie where blowing up giant crocodiles is a viable option...
And for those of you keeping track at home, there was no scene at the end where the crocs were revealed to be alive...

Wow, I'm impressed by the crotchety old woman and the whole lack of crocs still being alive... otherwise... well there wasn't enough naked for my taste.
