Watch Mega Shark vs. Crocosaurus For Free

Excellent but underrated film

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Former professional boxer/model stars, if that's the right word for it, as a fearless hunter, recruited by the US military to kill a gigantic shark and crocodile. Bad acting, even worse "special" effects and a ridiculous plot - another typical movie from The Asylum. This isn't so bad that its good. Its so bad that I just wanted the end credits to roll. Awful.

I think the actors were the only likable factor(if any) in this movie especially Gary Stretch as the croc hunter Nigel. Hannah Cowley, who gets only few scenes early in the movie, is so pretty. If she had remained till the end, it'd have probably earned more for this movie. Yet, I felt the execution is bad enough to down any pros I can think of. Many scenes don't make sense. The mega shark and mega croc constantly tear into each other, yet a scene or two later, both show nothing on them..a downed helicopter gets back up and flies in mint condition within minutes and one wonders how the croc did that happen? and so on...The effects are also weak but that wouldn't have really mattered if they hadn't been careless about these avoidable blunders. The poor script and/or direction messed up the lot. Give it a miss.

Okay. MEGA SHARK VS GIANT OCTOPUS turned out to be a silly, overrated, over-reliant-on-bad-CGI piece of spectacle which was far worse than slightly older B-flicks like OCTOPUS and SPIDERS. MEGA SHARK VS CROCOSAURUS offers more of the same, and you guessed it, it's just as bad.It's as bad as 2-HEADED SHARK ATTACK, which I watched the previous day, although a different kind of bad. 2-HEADED SHARK ATTACK was a lot tighter and on a smaller scale, and this one has a bigger budget, with some globetrotting and various locations getting destroyed. At times it recalls the classic Japanese kaiju movies, with cities getting razed by giant critters. But that doesn't make it good.The problem is twofold: the script is terrible and the special effects are even worse. The giant creatures seen here don't even begin to look remotely realistic, and you feel like you're watching a kid's cartoon for the most part. The human story is hardly any better, with lots of cheesy dialogue and bad acting. The only actors of note are Robert Picardo, who must have been wondering what went wrong, and Gary Stretch, a British actor with a notable role as the villain in DEAD MAN'S SHOES, playing an Indiana Jones/Crocodile Dundee type character. I could have forgiven the effects if the story had been okay, and I could have forgiven the story if the effects were good, but this burns on both fronts.

Following a series of strange reports, the US Navy hires a shark expert who finds that a gigantic crocodile is loose and laying eggs along the coastal shores and lures a massive great white shark to the creature to have them battle to the death in order to keep them from endangering the public.While there's a lot to like considering all the cheese on display, this is still a slight disappointment. Again, what's to like with this one is the multitude of action scenes on display here which features all the typical creature encounters that are so much fun. The shorter encounter here, as per usual here is great as the shark gets a fantastic opening scene here taking down a Navy Destroyer as well as the tests with the testing stages while the croc gets the impressive attack on the diamond mine and the boat-escape which provide this one with all kinds of exciting scenes. Still, what really helps here is the cheese on display, as the action on-screen from the tons of creature scenes makes this one enjoyable featuring the utter fun of their fight over the eggs along the shoreline, an extended Navy battle out at sea and a great series of lengthy battles at sea when it gets to it as the main highlights come from two big, cheesy action scenes. This one, though, really gets over- the-top and incredibly enjoyable from the CGI action of having two cheese-filled scenes with the rampage through the fleeing city resulting in outstanding action from the military trying to control it and the secondary scenes showing their battle all the way from the destruction of the Panama Canal out into the middle of the Pacific Ocean is overwhelmingly awesome. Added together with a lame storyline perfect for this kind of action, and it makes for the film's best points yet has one key fundamental flaw. The one factor about this one is the fact that what happens between the two creatures rarely, if ever, matches up to the scenarios presented in the dialog because it rarely matches up to the action as it repeats shots needlessly despite what else is happening on-screen. This also has the traditional utterly terrible CGI that comes into play, and in conjunction with those other issues, really strikes this one as lower than it should be.Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence and Graphic Language.
