Review of Primeval

Primeval (2007)
4/10
Un focused thriller isn't sure its about the crocodile or the warlords and ends up being about neither
3 September 2007
News Team goes to Africa to find and capture a killer crocodile. As they begin their hunt they run afoul of a warlord and have their lives put deeper into peril. Unfocused "horror" film had its release moved up three months for no good reason. Actually I suspect it was to simply kill the suspense and have the film take a loss in the companies ledgers early. This is a movie where almost everything is there, accept a script that makes sense. Why bill it as a horror/suspense film and then ignore that part of the story. Then again the early hype had this implying it was a film about a human serial killer. Low ratings are due to the disappointment....not to mention the fact that the story isn't much of anything.
