Crocodiles come in many sizes, this monster rogue salty will rival Jaws any day. The movie is set in the scenic outback of Kakadu National Park in far north Australia. An American tourist/travel writer, Pete McKell (Michael Vartan, of Alias Fame), joins a group of holiday makers for what he believes will be a mundane wildlife river cruise. The tour captain, Kate Ryan (Radha Mitchell) an attractive young guide who looks outback sexy in her Khaki shorts, and Pete immediately hit it off with a relationship of sorts, that evolves into a life and death situation.
After an uneventful day on the water, other than being harassed by a local yahoo, the soon to be internationally famous Sam Worthington (Avatar), they see emergency flares in the sky, up river. Compelled to help someone in distress, they reluctantly proceed into unchartered territory. The real excitement begins when they reach a small lagoon in an unexplored area that is home to a mighty beast.
Horror sets in after their boat is violently attacked from the murky depths. The sinking craft barely makes it to a small muddy tidal island in the middle of the lagoon. With little daylight left and rising waters, the only option is to try and make it to the mainland before they are submerged into the darkness, where they will surely become dinner for for a mean old hungry croc.
The director Greg Mclean has cast a fine variety of characters who keep the momentum going throughout the ordeal. Our villain is kept under wraps, with only glimpses of his mighty bone crunching jaws until the final scenes where he reveals his massive terrifying spine tingling prehistoric man eating body.
A film that begins with a seemingly fun educational wildlife cruise, and ends in the murky depths of hell, will keep you on the edge of your seat, waiting to see who will make it out alive.

An Australian made suspense movie thriller directed by a talented Nash Edgerton, which features as supporting actor, his equally talented brother Joel Edgerton who wrote the story. This is the Edgerton Brothers first full length feature film, after writing producing and directing many award winning short stories.
The film quickly sets the tone of an unhappy marriage and an illicit love affair headed for trouble, where a middle aged man Ray(David Roberts), hooks up with a much younger mistress, Carla (Claire van der Boom), who is also in a failing relationship. After that, the plot has so many twists and turns it will keep you guessing right through to the unexpected surprise ending, of which Nash Edgerton is known for in his previous productions.
The movie has plenty of action as the ill fated couple descend deeper and deeper into a depressing turmoil involving money, greed, death and revenge, where there seems to be no way out. All the elements and suspense are here to keep you glued to the screen.
The cast work well together, and with the special effects and stunts, makes for a movie well worth checking out.
