Review of Lake Placid (1999) by Bruce C — 30 Jul 2016
This is a wonderful, clever, funny spoof a teen monster-in-the-water movie. It has great dialog, stellar actors, good photography and a 30-foot crocodile. What's missing that disappointed so many viewers? No skinny-dipping. In fact, no sexual content at all. Well, this isn't a movie for shallow teens trying to get laid on a Friday night.
The jewel in the crown is Betty White in one of the funniest performances of her career. Highly recommended--but only if you are deeper than a rain puddle.
