Crawl

Ok nature/animal attack thriller. Kaya Scodelario and her father are trapped in the crawlspace of a house in Florida as particularly ferocious but oddly slow-moving alligators swarm in the rising floodwaters of a Florida hurrican, finding their way into every crevice and attacking everything that moves at the most dramatically opportune moment. Not bad for that.

Some fleeting ok cinematography and occasional well-done action sequences are nice touches. There’s a thing with some looters at the convenience store across the street that I liked. Anybody in a movie like this who’s first shown stealing an ATM in a flood is obviously going to meet a bad end, but the way they’re dispatched is gratifyingly to-the-point.
