Robocroc

In this standard sub-par "Syfy" TV Movie, a water park called "Adventure Cove" is terrorized after debris from outer space causes a crocodile named "Stella" to turn robotic and attack people. Resident zoo-keeper Corin Nemec (as Jim Duffy), the man who brought "Stella" to the park, takes the heroic leading role. Newly hired marine biologist Lisa McAllister (as Jane Spencer) arrives, coincidently, to assist. Also appearing are sneaky scientist Dee Wallace (as Riley) and US military man Steven Hartley (as Montgomery). Already making the scene is Mr. Nemec's son Jackson Bews (as Rob). He may stand a chance with attractive Florence Brudenell-Bruce (as Sydney), who arouses with a bikini and other skimpy clothing. More fully dressed, Ms. Wallace is also fun to watch.

**** Robo Croc (9/14/013) Arthur Sinclair ~ Corin Nemec, Lisa McAllister, Jackson Bews, Dee Wallace

I really do like Dee Wallace - and while she has quite a big role in this (not as big as the croc obviously, no pun intended), she can't really help elevate the movie either. This is low budget so I can see that some are able to cut this more slack than others. I also am happy for the at least one person who really enjoyed watching this. The majority of the viewers will feel differently.

You don't have to just suspend your disbelief - you have to shoot it into outer space. Kidding aside, the movie has dialog that is cringe worthy, CGI that obviously is not good at all and a predictibility rate that is beyond anything one can measure ... maybe take a look at the trailer and decide if you want to embark onto this "adventure"

The acting is atrocious, the script is ludicrous, but the effects are magical (only joking). For lovers of B or C horror movies, this is a must watch. Somehow they even managed to get Dee Wallace in the film. So amazingly bad, it's almost good.

This movie looks like a video game from 2002. The CGI is so laughably bad that I would almost recommend watching just 5 minutes of it if you want to see just how bad CGI can get. What was the budget for this thing? 200 bucks? It looks like something a college student would make for an 101 intro to filmmaking course. It doesn't help that the plot, characters, acting, directing all suck as well.

Trying to control a top-secret experiment, a military scientist reluctantly teams up with a zoo-keeper when it appears the experiment mutates one of the resident crocodiles into a cybernetic fusion and must try to stop it before it's rampage grows out of control.

This here turns out to be quite an entertaining and enjoyably cheesy offering. While the general plot device of allowing a normal crocodile to be infected and infused with cybernetic robotics to turn it into a killing machine is flat-out ludicrous, the manner in which it goes about dealing with this is quite nice with the overall deception played throughout the film against the zoo personnel, and in return, the viewer so we don't know any more than what's told. This makes for a potentially-frustrating time since there's little nuggets placed that aren't quite as forthcoming in revealing what's going on as it should be, and the final twist that enables the whole conflict to continue on is quite irritating for it's decision to incorporate such a clichéd option to keep this one going after the appropriate finale that was given here. That said, there's plenty to love in the film's outright cheesiness, which is just pure fun with the film getting a lot of play out of the initial concept of a robotic crocodile going on a rampage with the as-per-usual lame CGI keeping the sections of robotics coming through the normal crocodilian skin looking rather cheesy, there's some nice action scenes of both the crocodile in the adjacent water-park chomping on tourists to the military's battles with the creature in the open and utterly failing. It's actually quite fun and enjoyable for what it is.
