UMM. where to begin… Extremely misleading. Rather boring. And I pretty much got a headache from the annoying people next to us in the theater. It’s about a crocodile that eats people. I read this on imdb. It pretty much sums it up. > Wow, let me start off by saying this movie was a waste of time. I could not believe that the “creature” that has killed over 300 people and is compared to Jack the Ripper and some other notorious “human” serial killer is a crocodile. Yes, i said it a crocodile. Ladies and Gentlemen, “Lake Placid 2: Africa” has just hit theatres. > Some media personnel need a big story. So the boss says lets go capture an animal, that’ll win “the Pulitzer prize” as one of the characters mentions (who by the way should have stuck to his gut). They go to Africa where a civil war is going on (part of the advertised “true story”) and while dodging corrupt groups and militia men out for their heads, there’s this 50 ft long crocodile, named Gustave by the townspeople, that’s trying to make human mince meat out of them. I feel bad for Orlando Jones, whose character was relegated to “the token black guy” and is there for the slapstick comedy that was honestly at times too good to be in this type of movie. > I laughed when i should have been on edge, i yawned when i should have laughed and the only time I was scared was when i realized on 30 minutes had elapsed in the movie. Warn your friends. Gustave is coming to eat your $8.50. ---

Duh people that saw the commercial should have done what I did… google gustave and it brings it up as a crocodile… So then I read into and realized it was that large Croc they had in the news a few years ago…rumored to be “huge”. Lame, at least I knew before so I knew not to go. ---

you can see its a crocodile in the commercial… i would never see it, its a lame idea, and overly advertised because they know it. im sick of seeing the trailer 10 times during any given show. ---

> [@Sc1chik](#): > > UMM. where to begin… > > Extremely misleading. Rather boring. And I pretty much got a headache from the annoying people next to us in the theater. yea rachel got rather pissed off when i started yelling at them. I couldnt take it anymore, the movie was bad enough, but a bunch of dudebro’s giggling and acting idiotic just set me over the edge. And here’s my review: The movie blew. Not scary at all. Totally misleading. The black guy was funny. / Review ---
