Primeval

What do you do when your tent-camp near the river gets wrecked by a 6 mtr crocodile? Answer: you go hide out in a wooden-structure build on the river where the crododile just came from....

"...while the real Gustave may have racked up 300 odd kills, this film is surely an even bigger, badder killer -- of brain cells."

If they had stuck to the croc, it would have been good. Instead, they throw this whole political plotline in that anyone who goes to see it expecting big giant croc is dissapointed with. Just because a bad horror movie harps on it isn't going to make anybody care about the genocide in africa.

The only thing worth watching in this was Orlando Jones. Also the CGI was laughably bad.

Spectacularly clumsy attempt to mix some kind of social commentary about African genocide with a goofy monster-croc adventure. Really bad in almost every respect - acting, CGI, characterisation, script... you name it. Worst of all is the awful colour filter used throughout the film. Africa, apparently, is some kind of luminescent amber colour. Also features every stereotype about Africa you can think of, which would be offensive if it wasn't so boring.

Surprisingly violent at times, but the pacing, script and everything else is just so fucking awful. Everything is so dark, you can hardly see a thing, and the political subject just not fit a 'monster' movie. Quote of the movie: "And you wanna show the world who's got the biggest croc" Haha.. ha.... I'm so juvenile.....

Touchstone owes me $8.

Primeval is a travesty. It is a waste of time, a waste of film, and a waste of money. It tries to bring us a social commentary, but it fails at doing that because of how terribly executed everything in the film was. I had difficulty remembering a film that bored me as much as this one did. It's one noteworthy feature is that its killer will kill everyone, not just the good guys. But one promising idea in a slew of bad ones does not make a watchable film. Unwatchable.

This is one of those movies that you know to be bad before you watch it and you still watch it. And it's even worse.

THIS MOVIE WILL BLOW YOU TO THE BACK OF THE THEATER.

Entertaining horror/thriller flick done fairly well, which is what this genre of movie is all about. The story is good with an added subplot twist. The best suspenseful scenes with the croc are when it's dark. The cast do a fine job with the material they are given.

It's an odd creation. It's never boring, but this croc feature wants to have the civil-war action of "Blood Diamond" with all the dramatic genocide and merciless killings mixed in with crocodile attacks... it's a bad idea meant for Sci-Fi channel enthusiasts. Most of the effects are bad anyway. At least 'Lake Placid' was dumb and had a sense of humor. (By the way, I love the serial killer plot summary below; has there ever been a more absurd marketing ploy?)

It honestly could have been much worse. Instead its a mash-up of unexpected violence that you can often barely seem, since it's so damn dark half the movie.
