Good watch, would watch again, and can recommend. I like a crocodile movie, they don't even have to be giant-sized, they make really good "monsters", and the reality of their danger sits in the back of your head. The cast was great in this, though Bridget Fonda screams a lot, and I can't say it's very endearing. They do sort of a "unlikely crew" trope with this, but most of the movie is dedicated to trying to find the thing in one capacity or the other. I just feel they did a good job on everything all round, and while it's not phenomenal, part of me REALLY wants a re-make of this one.
