Trying to pigeonhole Crawl is difficult. Kaya S. plays a collegiate swimmer who receives a call from her sister worried about their father, a martinet swimming coach. Florida is facing a Category 5 hurricane and everyone is supposed to evacuate. However, their father went back to their childhood home and is now trapped in the crawlspace with shock from an alligator bite. Now father and daughter must battle farm-raised alligators. I am pretty sure that building a drain pipe near an alligator farm in storm-threatened Florida was boneheaded as was having both male and female gators. The movie never really addresses the eggs Kaya finds except for one scene with a baby gsator that possibly nips her. One doesn't go to a creature feature expected highly intelligent characters or plot so overall the film entertains and leaves the audience joyfilled.

Thor's Quinjet password!
A sereis of high stakes robberies.

Young FBI agent going undercover, and falling in with an extreme sports crowd who later prove to be those responsible for the robberies.

Unsure of where his loyalties lie.

Charismatic leader of the extreme sports group.

Increasingly ridiculous stunts.

Wait, am I describing 'Point Break' or 'The Fast and the Furious' franchise??

Yes, it is clear that that later franchise (Fasrt and Furious) takes many elements from this earlier movie (albeit switching surfing for cars), which stars a - very young!, pre The Matrix or even Speed - Keanu Reeves (Johnny Utah) alongside an impressively mulleted Patrick Swayze (Bodhi) and Gary Busey as Utah's older FBI partner.

Lets face it, though, we're really here for the stunts (or, at least, the male audience is!): in particular the surfing and skydiving (without a parachute) scenes.
