Robocroc

Like most rocket mishaps, this one's payload accidentally lands in a crocodile enclosure at a local zoo/fishing hole/water park, infesting a poor lonely croc named Stella. She gets a snootful of nanobots and immediately goes heavy metal. Military types invade the zoo and takeover. There's dissension in the ranks between a menacing sexagenarian (Dee Wallace as Riley) and a Colonel Montgomery (Steven Hartley) who mistakenly thinks he's in charge. Also along for the ride are Corin Nemec as Duffy, Stella's zoo buddy, and Lisa McAllister as Jane (who wanted `field experience' in a zoo). The rapidly changing Stella terrorizes the park; killing a bazillion people no one seems overly concerned about losing. Corin stomps around emoting for all he's worth while Dee Wallace, with face of stone, fiddles with a tablet, occasionally remembering to sneer appropriately at everyone. This is schlock sci-fi by the numbers. There are no surprises. People are attacked, dragged off then left bloody and mangled hither and yon, all the messy bits having been done off screen. More's the pity. I do love carnage; it's what you expect from crazy-critters-on-the-loose flicks. In that regard, this movie is sadly lacking. There isn't even a satisfying retribution killing at the finale. This movie simply runs out of time, and the person you most want to see chomped doesn't get their onscreen comeuppance. I hate it when that doesn't happen.Otherwise, it's pretty standard. It's neither here nor there where quality is concerned. The `cartoon' croc bounces along, poorly integrated with the background (the same could be said of Dee Wallace). But. For all of its many failings, I still liked this dopey attempt at making a `monster' movie.

Robocroc is a fun movie with a good story and mostly great special effects. I say mostly because one of the earliest scenes in the movie, showing the release of the nanobots, was not very well done. In my opinion, anyway.Don't be scared off!! The rest of the effects are fantastic. Especially when the croc becomes mostly, well... I don't wanna spoil it. But well done!The cast was great. Corin Nemec is the lead. How many of these low budget creature features has he starred in? I think I have at least a dozen. (Sand Sharks is a favorite that comes immediately to mind.) And Dee Wallace is a perfect stone cold bitch!Suffice it to say that if you love creature features, you oughta like this one.

I agree with one of the other reviews that this is more syfy schlock. But it did have several elements I like in my schlock. There is always a sociopathic authority figure that doesn't value human life with a counter-agenda. As these movies "plot" (if you can call it that) unrolls, I start hoping that by the end of the movie, the "hate-ables" will get what is coming to them. By about three quarters of the way through the film, I had decided who I was hoping would be eaten by the end. Sometimes it is ok to root for the monster. I do feel bad for Stella, who didn't ask to play this particular role. I am not sorry I watched it. I don't even mind that I paid several dollars.This movie was a combination of "mutant species" and any of the syfy croc movies.http://www.amazon.com/Mutant-Species-Powers-Boothe/dp/B009TR448Y/ref=sr_1_3?s=instant-video&ie=UTF8&qid=1394713857&sr=1-3&keywords=mutant+species

Space debris containing nanobots crashes to earth & infects a zoo's saltwater crocodile, which breaks out of the zoo and goes on a rampage, It's every bit as awesome as it sounds.

Pleased with product

dee Wallace is credited as a supporting actor. she holds together what would be an otherwise story of of dim witted teens wandering around with thi 'hy haven't I been had for lunch yet?' "abomidable" was another movie she starred in, and shows the depth of her acting ability. not a bad movie, best with buttered popcorn.

Good horror flick

B movie, Steve Alten would love it! totally out of the realm of reality. Poor croc gets infested by little nannobites which eat away at his skin.. If someone ate my skin I would have an attitude too! If you want to host a B rated movie night, this movie would be great. Dont forget the burnt popcorn!

A space probe crashes, releasing thousands of nanobots (that's molecule-changing robots to you and I) which start work at a zoo, turning a crocodile into a half-mechanical psycho killer.Though this film has a promising start, it unfortunately never takes advantages of the possibilities a cyborg crocodile has to offer. Despite a strong cast and some interesting CGI it is still just another "big crocodilian on the loose" movie, a format done with much more inventiveness and wit than this in films such as "Alligator". Worth watching but nothing special.

It is what it is - horror or comedy. Son liked it.

Excellent movie. Plenty of action. That croc sure was mean and if you like blood spill there's plenty in this one.

This is so bad it’s fantsstic

not to bad but have seen much better
