Surprisingly incoherent and boring

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

This movie is highly entertaining and family safe fun with enjoyment to b e had for all ages. I highly recommend this movie.Though many people may have many things to say about the actors, settings, and filmography of this particular film, the overall upshot should be a definitively net positive. The fact that the subject matter of the film may not be aligned to various political viewpoints in one manner or another does not negate from the fact that it is highly enjoyable and when taken from the right perspective (that which is to be having a good time)there are not many things you could be doing that would be more entertaining. Watch this movie, as it rocks.

I actually never saw this movie until about two years ago for some reason. I hadn't knew Steve Irwin very well then. Hearing about his death, I knew I have to learn more about him. I checked this movie out and I was impressed. The Crocodile Hunter and his wife Terri are on a mission to save this crocodile from poachers. What they do not know is that the crocodile swallowed a satellite beacon and the poachers are actually secret agents trying to get it back. It is a movie that I like to watch again and again. It is worth checking out if you liked Steve Irwin. And a great tribute to our one and only Crocodile Hunter. Crocs rule!

When a secret US satellite strays out of orbit it automatically self-destructs. A top-secret beacon is ejected with the explosion and ends up somewhere in Australia where, unbeknownst to the authorities, it is swallowed by a big mean crocodile. While the US mobilises a small team of men to recover the beacon at any costs, on the ground in Australia is Steve Irwin and his good lady wife are in the outback looking at the less loved outback animals. When they get a call about a crocodile terrorising an area they go in to capture it and move it to a less populated river system. However what they don't know is that the crocodile has this secret cargo that will put the Irwin's on a collision course with the US agents.I've seen bits of Irwin's TV show once or twice but have never really watched more than that or cared to but the sheer silliness of this film made me think it was worth a look. Needless to say I was wrong because all I found here was the same sort of stuff that I've not been bothered enough to watch when it has been on regularly on TV. The plot is very basic and was not even used that well, suffice to say that it is the weakest frame I've ever seen and for the first half of the film it bares no relation to the Irwin's and only makes up the odd sort scene here and there. Instead what we get is lots of Steve Irwin messing around with snakes, lizards etc which is hardly enough to be worth going to the cinema for but, if you like the TV show then you'll find more of the same here. I quite enjoyed these parts of it (albeit I could have easily had the film be 60 minutes long rather than 90) mainly because of Steve.I know that some people find him annoying and I couldn't watch him do the same stuff every week but he does have a certain charm even if he is silly and hammy with all his lines. His handling of animals is impressive and the film does produce a hatful of scenes that do nothing for the narrative but are still riveting. Terri is less impressive and more wooden but then she fits in with the rest of the support cast in that vein as folk like Wenham, Szubanski, Hulme, Young and others could all easily have been replaced by blocks of wood without the film suffering that much (although Beahen was cute).Overall this is a solid enough film for kids with a nice message about conservation that is delivered without the usual smugness that such things have. Beyond kids I suppose it will do for fans of Irwin because it captures his "act" and his charm really well but you do have to wonder why anyone would pay to see this film when it is essentially what you can see on his TV show for free. I quite enjoyed it although to be honest I'd rather have just watched the short version on his show than this film.

Only in America can a moron like Steve Irwin be a "star".I long for the days when people like Danny Kaye, Audrey Hepburn and Betty Davis ruled the house. Those people were stars.Nowadays, someone like Paris Hilton, bimbo that she is, is considered a star for Petes Sake. So, it should come as no surprise that an idiot like Steve Irwin is considered a "star" in America. It simply takes no talent to be a celebrity anymore. It's all about over the top persona's. If you happen to have one of those, and especially if you have a sex tape floating around on the internet, then somewhere there is a camera looking for you, a contract waiting to be signed and an entourage of groupies waiting to follow you around like dogs in heat. Sheesh!Thankfully, this movie tanked. There must be a God after all!
