Deciding to take a special canoeing trip through the Australian outback, a small group of friends is stranded in the wilderness by a massive, flesh-hungry crocodile not letting them leave and forcing them to find a way to survive the desperate odds. What did everyone think of this one?

Love this one. When I first caught it, I was worried that it would be able to sustain the premise after they get stuck up the tree 20 mins in.What followed though was an exercise in absolute tension,that made me really feel I was stuck up the tree with them.

Indeed, you are stuck up the tree with them, the only problem is you do absolutely nothing since you're stuck up a tree. It wastes so much time not doing anything that hardly anything happens and it drags itself out endlessly. It doesn't feel like a full-length film premise, more of an anthology entry because it doesn't do anything for so long that it takes an eternity to get much of anything done.
Granted, the few attacks are cool, the sense of irony in here is splendidly grotesque and the croc looks awesome for once, but I found it much too dull to do anything entertaining.
