Mega Python vs. Gatoroid (2011)

MEGA PYTHON VS. GATOROID is another anything-goes giant monster movie from The Asylum, a production company notable for populating their films with half-naked actresses, washed-up stars and former celebs, and horrendous CGI. This is a film that ticks all of those boxes without ever offering up a single surprise for genre fans.The plot in this one is particularly stupid, given that the origin of the creatures is down to mankind (essentially, normal critters being fed steroids by some moronic characters). Former pop idols Tiffany and Debbie Gibson play ageing wildlife experts/rivals and seem to fight and trade insults at regular intervals. They're inevitably involved in a cat fight, which is ridiculous - and ridiculously cheesy - as it sounds.Although this sounds mildly entertaining, it really isn't. The giant snakes and alligators are as dull as you could imagine, and the gore is half-baked. The CGI effects are truly terrible, and the jarring narrative makes little sense as the story progresses. There are the usual set-pieces - a party/gathering attacked en masse, a city destroyed - but none of them are even remotely fun. I think the highlight for me has to be Micky Dolenz's bizarre cameo, with the former Monkey playing himself...

First who the hell releases non-native species into local waters? Only those with no conscience or from somewhere else. If Debby Gibson's character, a doctor no less, actually cared as much as she states, then she wouldn't be releasing the ones she steals from people into local Florida waters. I will say though that in my opinion Debby beats Tiffany hands down in the who still looks best department. Now Tiffany's character actually is a more responsible person as she recognizes the invasive species threat and Gibson is just a tree hugging, let everything work out idiot. Now don't get me wrong I do belong to PETA (People Eating Tasty Animals)!!!! I am on the governments side in this movie.

This is a very strong contender for the title of best film ever made in the entire history of time.Now, i'm not saying that it's a great film, or even a good one really. It's just that the very existence of a film wherein '80s popstrels Debbie Gibson and Tiffany fight in a swamp... Debbie Gibson and Tiffany... mud-wrestling... It's like someone hacked into the dreams of my ten-year-old self and beamed them directly onto celluloid. The fact that the movie also contains giants lizards is just the icing on the cake.Said gargantuan reptiles may not be the greatest effects committed to film (in fact, the word "special" is possibly not applicable to these effects), but that just enhanced the charm. Speaking of "charms", hasn't Tiffany grown? She now resembles Karen Gillan's MILFy mother, and that ain't no bad thing. Still more of a Gibson fan, myself, though.Monsters, ex-teen pinups, and in-jokes galore. When the lines "I think we're alone now..", "There doesn't seem to be anyone around!" were uttered, i think i nearly spontaneously combusted with joy. Truly the stuff of a madman's dreams.

I don't get all the bad reviews for this movie... I personally loved it! A moving story about helping nature to try to save the earth from human hands. Some scientists face an arrogant law defender with the intention to save endangered specimens in an intense survival thriller marked by high speed action and sharp-as-blade dialogs.However, Nature proves itself unstoppable, even when humans try to do what's right and use most honest and intelligent basis for their decisions.A giant python and a mastodontic crocodile cross humanity's way to salvation.
