"Crocodile Alert" is one of those films that many will dismiss just for being based on a ridiculous premise, having terrible acting and abysmal direction. But for those of us who can look past this minor shortcomings and appreciate real cinema, there is a real gem of the seventh art.
The emotional investment of the main characters in their hunt for the beast that terrorizes their peaceful town is matched only by their complex and involved relationships that will keep you on the edge of your seat both literally and emotionally.
Do not, for one second, think that frequent display of breasts in this film is there just for the cheap titillation which adolescent males are susceptible to. Every scene has its semantic, and in the end artistic, purpose - to take the viewer further into their own soul.
And this is the ultimate goal of this film - to teach you something about yourself. For sure, if you sit through this one, you will find out something new, and maybe even disturbing about the very depths of your personality.
In the words of the poet, "10/10 would watch again"
