a slick, serviceable nature's revenge flick...[but] one can almost feel the clashing instincts of McLean and his Hollywood executive producers the Weinsteins, with the hokey spirit of Crocodile Dundee winning out in the end.

Rogue subverts genre conventions at numerous points in the narrative--which is both its greatest strength and weakness.

Rogue delivers no more or less than it promises, and it does so the way those 50s irradiated-beasts directors wish they could have done so realistically had CGI and good animatronic puppetry been around.

Rock out with your croc out: A lean, mean and wonderfully fun little fright flick in the tradition of Jaws 2, Orca and Deep Blue Sea.

This is by no means original or groundbreaking. But, it's made with a sure hand, filled with tension throughout.

A competent horror filmed in eye-catching Aussie outback locations.

A film predicated on ideas of suspense and pace rather than blasting violence and idiocy, Rogue is a satisfying, skilled entry in the water-based terror genre.

What Would Toto Watch?

From its evocative, economical title to its bright and breezy end credits pop song (Never Smile at a Crocodile) Rogue delivers everything you could want from a high class creature feature/adventure thriller. It's a ripper

The best flick of its kind since Lewis Teague's drive-in classic Alligator. And that was 1980.
