Review of Crawl (2019) by Ajzeg01 — 30 Nov 2019
You’ve heard of a Sharknado, now get ready for a Hurrigator! This movie was stupid. Why did the critics like this? It’s a movie about killer CGI alligators! Doesn’t seem like the kind of movie that would get high critical praise, but here we are.
What did I think of it? While this movie is very stupid with some very cheesy and unrealistic moments and a ton of stuff that doesn’t make sense, I enjoyed it. Much like Brightburn, this movie has a big director attached to it as a producer, Sam Raimi.
This movie does feel kind of Evil Dead-ish, it’s about people in an isolated location with a creepy basement trying to survive, but it’s not nearly as good. Honestly, I really don’t have much to say about this movie.
This movie doesn’t overstay its welcome and it succeeds at precisely what it sets out to do, just be entertaining. It doesn’t really try to be anything more. I can’t really fault the movie for that.
As for my recommendation, does a killer alligator movie sound appealing to you? If yes, give it a watch. It’s really short. It’s under 90 minutes. You don’t have much to lose. Just turn off your brain and have fun.
If not, you are not going to enjoy this movie.
