The Flood Movie Reviews

This was painful to watch. Here is why you should not!

This movie felt like a torture device more than anything. Before the opening credits roll, we are greeted by some very unlikable horribly acted out characters that we know nothing about, nor care about. Anyway, that opener just sets the tone for the rest of it; it gets no better. What you see in the first 30 seconds is what the rest of it is like. Nothing changes, just more random people enter the badly written scenes, act them out horribly and die by a stealth 50ft alligator that always ends up getting punched in the face, literally. They should have called this movie gator boxing. At least that would have been an original something in it!!

Acting is D tier at best (and im very generous here), dialogue lines written by equally apt people, CIG is 90s level, reality and logic just do not exist not that those would have helped much at this point. The movie is an amalgamation of everything somebody saw over their lifetime. HARD RAIN, LAKE PLACID, SHARKNADO, DEEP BLUE SEA, and so many others.

Not an original thought was put behind anything on screen, there is no production value either. Camera work is acceptable but every angle and scene cut is generic as it gets – it has no style of its own. I was trying to find something good about it and i failed. At the end it begs the question, why was this made? There are stupid movies that are entertaining (COCAINE BEAR), but this is dull and annoying with nothing going for it. Frankly if the acting was just an inch above the deepest pit of bland and forced, it might have been watchable. But you just cannot stomach these people on screen for that long.

Just skip it. 2/10 because i was totally rooting for the gator every time he came out of nowhere right between 20 of them and ate one of them up before escaping using its teleportation device!

Truly terrible.

Ok, there are other reviews here that all say the exact same thing: it’s not a bad movie that you should avoid, it is truly an annoying way of spending your time.

So, let’s do this without spoiling anything: we all know that there are alligators in this one, but did you know the CGI used is the same one that brought Godzilla 1998? And not only that, but they used the exact same tactic, they shot the movie in the dark, they put some CGI rain, I’m not kidding, it is CGI rain, hopefully that the reptiles will look slightly better. But they do not.

Also, after taking inspiration from Godzilla, they went even further back in time and picked Terminator 1984. It was decided that the gators can not be killed by conventional weapons, but, today’s conventional weapons not those from 1984.

A little Assault on Precinct 13 1976 and there you have it, they got a movie for you. Truly, truly bad in all ways.

I gave it two stars because the star power here is not negligible.

Anyway here is a little piece of information that will save you a lot of time. After the first gator attack, where you will see nothing more than bad CGI and a roll over performed with fast forward which makes it look even more ridiculous, you will know that what awaits you is nothing but regret.

Cheers!

Has To Be The Worst Gator-Based Horror Ever Made.

This has got to be the worst alligator based horror film ever made.

You can tell it was one of those one-line high concept pitches that Netflix is infamous for making.

With the concept being something along the lines of Con Air meets Lake Placid, only, in a prison, instead of an airplane.

Because an airplane was clearly not in the budget.

The entire concept is idiotic.

A group of prisoners are being transported during a hurricane, near New Orleans, and get re-routed to a local jail. Where a plan is hatched to break out one of the inmates…only for both operations to be interrupted by an infestation of insatiably murderous alligators, who have been washed into the prison as a result of flooding from the hurricane.

But how exactly they infiltrated the jail, never really makes sense.

So, the fact that the gators are rendered with some of the worst CGI since Birdemic…alongside the awful acting…moronic script…and idiotic plot.

Gives this film the three strikes it needs to be relegated to the dustbin of internet streaming service history.

Because it is absolute trash.

Whose only redeeming quality is that the white trash Nazi character gets his comeuppance.

Steer well clear of this one…because it’s not the backed up sewage that is stinking up the room here.

1.5 out of 10.
