Missione coccodrillo Ratings e Recensioni
- Manuel Frangis9 marzo 2025I finally rewatched The Crocodile Hunter: Collision Course, and honestly, I still love it. Steve Irwin was a legend and this movie is just a fun, ridiculous adventure that perfectly captures his energy and love for wildlife. It’s not a masterpiece of filmmaking, but let’s be real, that’s not what this movie was trying to be. It’s just Steve being Steve, and that’s what makes it awesome. The best thing about this movie is that it doesn’t try to force Steve Irwin into some Hollywood-style action hero role. Instead, it feels like an extended episode of The Crocodile Hunter, just with a bigger budget and a loose storyline thrown in. Steve and Terri are doing what they do best, rescuing animals, explaining wildlife behavior, and wrestling with crocodiles, all while unknowingly getting mixed up in a goofy CIA plot about a missing satellite. It’s ridiculous but in the best way possible. Steve Irwin is just so genuine. You can tell he’s not acting, he’s just being himself, and that’s what makes this movie work. His enthusiasm is infectious, and every time he talks directly to the camera to explain something about an animal, it feels exactly like watching the show. Terri Irwin is great too, and their dynamic is as fun as ever. The action and comedy are over-the-top but that’s part of the charm. Watching Steve wrestle a crocodile while dodging clueless government agents who think he’s some kind of secret operative is just peak entertainment. It never takes itself too seriously and honestly, that’s what makes it work. Visually, the movie does a great job of showing off Australia’s wildlife. From crocs to snakes to lizards, there are plenty of classic Crocodile Hunter moments where Steve interacts with animals and teaches the audience something. That’s what really makes this movie special. It’s not just some cash grab, it’s Steve Irwin doing what he loved and sharing it with the world. If I had to critique anything, it’s that the actual spy movie plot is kind of weak and unnecessary. Every time the CIA agents are on screen, you just want to get back to Steve doing his thing. But even with that, it never ruins the fun. Final thoughts? If you love Steve Irwin, this movie is a must-watch. It’s a fun, wild ride that captures his passion, humor, and love for animals perfectly. He was one of a kind and this film is a great tribute to everything that made him so legendary. Crikey, I miss this guy.
- ርልዪረ24 giugno 2025As a passionate animal lover myself, I have great admiration for Steve Irwin. John Stainton (director) is responsible for making the iconic show on Animal Planet, and his idea for making this vastly underrated gem of a movie happens to be a huge undertaking, and the results are utterly pleasing. This film has no intention to be a comedy, nor a biographic documentary, because "The Crocodile Hunter: Collision Course" is a fun, captivating, significant, and ambitious allegory; the kind of movie that blows "Jaws," "Alligator," "Lake Placid," and even "Crocodile Dundee" out of the water, as it stands in a league of it's own. The plot involves a missing satellite beacon that landed in North Queenlsand, Australia, where it was swallowed by a twelve-foot male saltwater crocodile that ate one of the owner's cattle. That's when our main heroes, Steve, and his wife Terri Irwin, and their dog, Sui, are on a mission to relocate this big croc to another river system far away as possible. Little did the Irwins know, the agents of the CIA are searching for the beacon, which they didn't know that it's inside of the croc's stomach. The imaginative concept for it's plot may be staged, but the whole movie feels grounded. At it's core, it's about preserving wildlife and respecting nature. Not to mention that this is a rare movie that puts misunderstood reputations of dangerous predators aside - crocodiles and snakes are not the man-killing monsters that we think they are, as long as we don't mess with them, and give them their space. John Stainton did a fine job making the simple screenplay easy to follow; both cohesively and morally. Stainton and Bob Blasdall (editor) are competent with the craftsmanship with skillful timing - how the characters were introduced, creating exciting suspense to foreshadow what's ahead, utilizing quick cuts for the thrilling action sequences, and camera movements to following any silhouette with perfect timing. Let's not forget that the cinematography offers beautiful shots of the Australian landscapes, and striking close-up shots of some of Australia's deadliest predators. Enhancing the entire movie is the incredibly dynamic music score with memorable compositions, vigorous energy, and a superb use of instrumentation. Steve and Terri are being themselves, which is rare for a movie. Yet, they are charismatic as always when they are doing their own thing - doing what they do best. People might mistaken Steve Irwin as an Australian Ace Venture, but he is in actuality a real professional naturalist who inspires everyone with passionate enthusiasm, as he lectures people about the importance of animals, including the serious consequences of predators going extinct. Other characters are painted in different shades of grey. The US Government agents, led by two Deputy Directors, are depicted as mysterious, straight-faced businessmen just doing their job (searching for the satellite beacon), and yet they know nothing about wildlife in their entire lives before. Robert Wheeler (Lachy Hulme) is the collected best of the CIA with his pistol gun, while Jo Buckley (Kate Beahan) is the Australian assistant of the CIA. Magda Szubanski was wicked as Brozzie the reckless cattle owner, who has a toxic aversion for crocodiles. While Sam Flynn (David Wenham) is the likable rancher who takes Brozzie seriously when she breaks the law. Highly Recommended (suitable for kids 8 and up).
