Summary: The Crocs Of Hazzard
Comment: Avoid seeing this god awful excuse for a sequel to a movie that did not need a sequel done in the first place.
Bo Duke now resides in a small town, and this guy who was out on a boat with his friend are attacked by a crocodile. When he reports it, Bo Duke does not beleive him and the sheriffs department think it is a joke.
However, even after Bo is shown evidence of what is left of the first victim of one of the crocs, he continues to smile, joke around like he could not care about anything less in the world.
Along the way you meet characters who can not act for SHIpenuTs, but got the part cause they where willing to take there cloths off at the drop of a hat.
Each character in the movie seems to be done in a lame way. You can not beleive any of the characters, the acting itself is dreadful on most actors part, and the plot is almost the same as the original movie.
This time around, Cloris Leachmen plays the sister of Rose from the golden girls. And it's just too corny, and too predictable what her story is. But the thing about her character, is she was one of the actors in the movie who wasn't doing a terrible job, but the character she was given was like monkeys wrote the part.
If the acting and some of the accents and the characters where not bad enough, then there is the CGI. For a movie made in 2007, you do not expect to see CGI work that looks like it was from 1997. The croc's looked unbelievably bad, and the way they move are just in no way at all believable.
Anyone who has seen a real croc or alligator know they are not slow moving creatures, they pounce out of the water at speeds you have to see to beleive. And they can use there tails to launch many feet into the air. Yet the characters in this movie have no trouble out swimming a croc, hiding in a tree about 5 foot in the air, and have plenty of time to see a croc coming for them and decide what they will have for lunch next Tuesday before opening fire at one of these things.
I know sometimes you can suspend belief and just go with being entertained by a movie, but this one just does so many things that stand out in a bad way that you can't sit back and just enjoy it.
The script writer seemed to have had a decent story going, but the way it was filmed... it's like the director never did the scenes over and over to get the best one, he was like, "do it once....that will do, next"
The plots and ideas behind it where just lame, bad or leaving you thinking, "what where they thinking?" and thats what I say to this movie overall.
There is one more thing I did not like about this movie. The way it was shot, directed, cut together and even the way it was acted... if they cut out the un-needed nudity, this movie would be rated PG.
Which audience did they plan to show this to? Cause the adult audience are definitely saying how bad and lame it is. And at many points in the movie, I thought I was watching a kids movie.
If you have a program like NERO, use one of it's features to cut out the nudity scenes, then show it to a kid under 13. Then ask them if they thought any of the movie was the slightest bit scary?
This movie has no idea which way it should go, family movie, or more mature audience, and by the final cut of this thing, it's the useless nudity thats the only thing that gets it a rating above PG13.

Summary: poorly done
Comment: unlike lake placid which was funny and exciting, this part11 is a poorly made, unacted, and extremely corny remake that in my opinion is a waste of time and money

Summary: Come on there are films of the same genre far worser than this one
Comment: Its true what most people say. The acting is below average. The crocodiles are obviously CGI. But what do you expect from a movie that was released in the Sci-Fi channel and with a a budget of $2,000,000(The original movie had a budget of up to $27,000,000)? In my opinion this was a good movie for what it is (a Sci-Fi movie). The plot in my opinion is not that much of a rehash of the original. But its a little hard to tolerate the below-average acting. The crocodiles themselves do not look that bad to me, since I do not mind that much the obvious use of CGI. At least this sequel its not just an only in name sequel like other films. Recommend this movie to those who do not mind bad special effects and who do not take things too seriously.

Summary: Lake Placid 2
Comment: Finally, Ed Wood can rest in peace knowing that he is NOT the worst director of all time. That title now goes to David Flores the director of NOW the worst movie of all time,in my humble opinion, "Lake Placid 2".
I must admit that by looking at the cast lineup I thought it had hope, but boy was I ever mistaken. Cloris Leachman is a total waste and John (Duke Boy) Schneider is even worse. The CGI is terrible and the rest of the cast is a total waste as well.
Don't waste your time and money.

Summary: Funny! (if you like severed arms)
Comment: OK - it's silly. but, FUN!
If you watch it not expecting greatness - and you know it's going to be silly, dumb, funny, with a lot of blood, it can be a hoot! which I did, and it was.
about the worst bad acting I've ever seen. the actors all seems to be reading off cue cards - that bad. but, I didn't care. I was all for the crocks eating people.
not disappointed. scary surprise attacks galore. crocodiles (or are they alligators?) biting off arms, legs, or right down the middle... yummy fun.
you don't have to have seen the first one to watch this one, no need at all.
I do not like violence, normally - but, this one - you kinda root for the crock to "get him!" and you pretty much know who is expendable and who is going to live thru it.
microwave the popcorn and cuddle with your hunny and enjoy!
