The story starts with a man and a woman who are on a trip in the jungles of africa. There they witness a human sacrifice by a dangerous tribe and after this they get attacked. The man gets killed and the woman gets captured by the natives.
We then cut to the big city somewhere in the US and the father of the woman kidnapped decides to arrange a rescue party and recruit a bunch of former soldiers (I would assume). They go to the jungle but they eventually realize that the natives are the least of their problems when they encounter deadly hungry crocs in the water.
This film does sometimes come across as rather boring even though it is labeled as an action and horror film (two of my favorite movie genres) but what helps the film along the way is the atmosphere and the locations in the jungle. I've always had a weak spot for films that takes place in forests/jungles and in wildelife locations.
The acting overall is ok and the blood and gore is also pretty fun and entertaining.
The dialogue can sometimes be really bad but you also have to keep in mind that the director was more aiming for good action and good horror which he did succeed with. I do feel that one of the negative things about the film are most of the characters, they are rather bland and boring to a certain degree.
Cinematogrophy is really good (except for a few badly lit shots) and sooths well with the beautiful locations.
Of course there are better action/horror flicks out there but if you, like me like these type of wildlife action/horror flicks go give this one a shot. Oh and did I mention that the leader of the tribe has a really funny looking crocodile costume on?
Also the end credits song kicks ass!
My rating: 6 out of 10.
