Rugged American adventure-travel journalist Pete McKell (Michael Vartan) joins a cruise along a crocodile-infested river organized by tomboyish guide Kate Ryan (Radha Mitchell). As if dealing with their fellow travelers -- including obnoxious wannabe photographer Simon (Stephen Curry) and bratty British teen Sherry (Mia Wasikowska) -- wasn't enough aggravation, soon Pete and Kate must match wits against an enormous 25-foot croc that seems cleverer than most.

Over 15 years old and this is still a very good direct-to-video creature feature! Thank god it isn't disposable fodder like many that exist The title refers to an animal that breaks away from its own pack and prefers to act more savage Totally didn't know Radha Mitchell, Sam Worthington, and an upcoming Mia Wasikowski were in this A tour group is just taking a nice boat ride along the waters of the outback but little do they know that a giant crocodile is hunting them All of them become the animal's prey so they are desperate to escape alive You easily love Radha Mitchell so much as she tries to keep this group together The Australian setting is so beautiful-looking, the film is amazingly shot, it looks sharp, and you feel the intense, heated atmosphere of it all The movie works great when it comes to this crocodile's presence, you feel every second of danger when it's around with its massive size and giant jaws The CGI on this thing is pretty sharp too The other addition that makes this work is that the victims you actually care about them making it out, you're not rooting for them to get eaten The tension is brilliant with director Greg McLean making a simple premise taut and tension-filled It's like 'Lake Placid' but better

You know what to expect, and you won't be disappointed with the entertainment that 'Rogue' delivers perfectly well for this type of film

The CGI crocodile was more comical than anything, and the poor acting by most of the cast made the movie seem like an amateur high school production, don't bother.

I actually really enjoyed this creature feature. The low audience score is beyond me. Great atmosphere, decent acting, pretty good CGI and some really terrifying scenarios in this one.

Hollywood Reporter

A shiny production that delivers formulaic jolts rather than stomach-turning gore and depravity.

AV Club

McLean's sophomore effort proves to be a taut and often terrifying creature feature, one that censures man's foolish belief that he can have dominion over nature while delivering shrewd, scary situational suspense.

Rogue progresses into a hit-and-miss second half that's unfortunately (and increasingly) more miss than hit...

Rated: 2/4
