Review of Komodo

Komodo (1999)
3/10
Not thrilling enough
16 November 2002
The premise of the movie isn't very realistic. A counsellor brings her charge back to the island where he was living when his parents got eaten in an attempt to cure his Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Of course she doesn't check if the bleedin' monsters are still on the dang island and his aunt gets eaten in front of him. The kid, who's been lying around staring at the ceiling since his folks became Komodo chow, suddenly morphs into Tarzan jr. and starts skewering Komodos. I feel for the poor kid. It's gonna take helluva lot of pills to get him back into society.

Not too much suspense here and the Komodos look fake on occasion, which leaves action sequences, of which there is sufficient, but it's not enough to float this movie. 3/10
