A Boring Remake Of The Creature From The Black Lagoon

Rating: 2/10 (30 December 2018)

My rating of 2 stars is solely for the production values. This is really just a B-grade movie made on a huge budget with a highly skilled production team - it has no other redeeming qualities, and, except for the fact that so many other clunkers have won oscars, I would be bewildered at its success at the Academy Awards.
The plot is very much a remake of The Creature From The Black Lagoon (1954), but it comes off a poor second in comparison.
