After little to buzz regarding its release, the first reactions for Crawl have been revealed. The film seems to be falling under the radar a bit in a summer full of larger blockbusters. The first reactions to the film have been surprisingly positive.
#CrawlMovie is a batshit, wild summer thrill! I'm a pretty quiet movie watcher but that went out the window here. Forget "edge of your seat" – had to stop myself from jumping out of it a few times. See this one on the big screen with a packed house.

#CrawlMovie is my kind of movie. Efficient, scary, funny, (okay, okay, kinda dumb), and with an exhilarating sense of cosmic hopelessness, where everything that could possibly go wrong does, which makes for a really good time in the theater. Definitely a film to see with a crowd. pic.twitter.com/Z8JldIfZ4q

#CrawlMovie is an absolute blast. Taut, ferocious filmmaking. I’ve never seen a concept so simple executed with such bravado and precision. pic.twitter.com/6TxFhtW8jJ

#CrawlMovie is a fast, vicious, and nasty summer thrill ride. It plays a tight, effective game; and it's the sort of movie that the warmer months used to deliver between blockbusters. Hot damn was it fun, and I'm ready to see it again. Oh, and see it with an audience. Worth it. pic.twitter.com/7lWuDfqWEr

The film may be set to become the underrated gem of the summer. Crawl centers on a daughter and her father who are trapped during a hurricane when vicious alligators wind up trying to hunt them down.
