Film: Lake Placid

Genre: Action Comedy
Source: USA (1999)
Rating: R
Location/Format: HBO
Grade: C+

Solid B-grade Jaws comedy knock-off with a likable cast, a silly premise, and Betty White swearing. If the synopsis (giant crocodile terrorizes a lake in Maine) sounds like something you might enjoy, you probably will. Add to that good character actors like Brendan Gleeson and Oliver Platt just having a good time, and it's a great Saturday afternoon movie. 

Nothing profound here, just a giant crocodile.

Alternate Film Title: "Betty White Still Steals the Show"
