I think this must be the highest quality made Australian film I've seen. Tense, doesn't reach too far into the unbelievable and a bunch of amusing characters too. Loved it.

I'd call this the _Jaws_ of killer-croc movies. The budget is there for this to be a great film, and it's taken seriously.
The actors did a great job. No one is overacting given the reality of the situation they'd be in. It was super cool to see John Jarratt (Mister _Wolf Creek_ himself) in the cast.
The first act is the best part, when _Rogue_ takes the time to set up our characters. Surprisingly emotional moments for a movie like this. Did I get a little emotional in a movie about a giant croc? Maybe.
After the strong start, this sort of fell apart. The second act was okay, but the end was just weak.
On to the star... the croc! He looks pretty good. I would have preferred a practical croc, instead of CG, but he looked alright.
For the most part, this was great, but it was missing the extra drama and suspense to take it over the edge. I'd still recommend this, along with _Crawl_ as a double feature.

Wow! I half expected a rip-off of Lake Placid or a ridiculously portrayed giant crocodile but was gratifyingly surprised!

I’m not a croc expert, but I thought the instincts of the croc were realistic enough to be believable to the average audience. Set aside the croc’s size and appetite and I think the croc was portrayed well. The size and appetite are needed for a giant creature feature.

The characters were believe in most survival actions and interactions. Just well done.

Was the bar in the very beginning of the film the same as that in Crocodile Dundee?

Not as graphic as some might hope. The cast was pretty good though. There has been worse crocodile movies as well. With less tension.

I always like a good creature feature and what is Hoop-tober without a killer animal? This time we have a rather large Australian Crocodile hunting a bunch of tourists. I enjoyed the opening with some beautiful shots of nature in Australia, we are also getting to know our set of tourists (one of them is Mia Wasikowska!) and we even see a painted Crocodile on a wall!
At some point instead of going back the set of tourists and their guide Kate (Radha Mitchell) wander off to check out a flare being shot in the air. And like in typical horror fashion they should not have done that! Not at all! The Crocodile slowly shows up and starts stalking and haunting the group of tourist.

What follows is a tension filled hour with some good and bad ideas, a final fight and an ending with more survivors than I anticipated on. But in the end it is a good creature-feature and one we haven't had that much in the past 15 years or so.

If you like Horror movies be sure to check out Greg McLean's Rogue!

I watched it fully expecting a good old bad, B-movie fun with cheesy CGI and laughable acting. Maybe a couple of bikini shots in the water before a bloodbath. Turned out to be a pretty well made horror flick full of tension and somewhat moderate on gore. Stars Mia Wasikowska and Sam Worthington before they became famous. I would have given it a higher rating, but [spoiler] the dog dies in the end [/spoiler]. You had one job, Pete.

If you watched Anaconda with Ice Cube, then you saw this movie minus the awful Voight accent. If you liked Anaconda then you like this too. Gators over snakes.

I saw this garbage on UniMás, a Spanish-language channel on a weekend after a game had finished on another channel. It's pretty much a mindless monster movie starring a pre-famous Mia Wasikowska and the never-famous Michael Vartan, or just that guy from "Alias." (& apparently there's a Stephen Curry, but it ain't the NBA star.) "Rouge" is decent enough just to have on TV (to rationalize, UniMas is an HD channel) while doing other stuff like using your phone or computer or doing laundry.

Wow this was bad. Strong FX and interesting characters, but it could have been 20 minutes long. Lots of random nature shots and other filler shots. Predictable and plenty of wasted opportunities for the big ol’ salty to chow down on more humans.
