Load of rubbish!!

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

With director SS Wilson returning, this installment is very entertaining indeed; much better than Part 3, and Part 2. I enjoyed the look and feel of the movie, as well as the music. The effects were great. Less action than the first film with more concentration on characters.

Tremors 4: The Legend Begins is a prequel to the other Tremors films and the TV series.I find the experience of watching this film to be a pleasant one. It has humour and mild threat, with some tense scenes. I certainly think this is a better entry to the franchise that Tremors 3: Back to Perfection, and far superior than the latest, Tremors 5: Bloodlines.The Graboids are back to basics with almost no CGI, and they are convincing creations.It features real characters who are portrayed well by the cast, and sheds an interesting light on the origins of Burt Gummer through the exploits of Hiram Gummer, both played by Tremors veteran Michael Gross.This is a good watch; the story is well told, the monsters are fun to watch, the characters are likable, there's some effective moments of tension and traditional Tremors humour. Good film.

I'm gonna start by saying I love the Tremors series. The shabby flicks are an ode to the monster cinema of old, and I love it for that. The first one is the best, I find the second film enjoyable and even the third wasn't too bad. But this, this is just a PIECE OF SH*T. Serving as a prequel to the first three films, and taking place in the Old West for what reason I don't know, this film is a god-awful mess.Firstly, the story sucks. It was badly written. From the beginning that useless 19th century tractor pokes its nose into almost every shot, obviously indicating the machine will be a crucial tool in the finale. More on that later. Secondly, the build-up is pain-staking slow, and I mean SLOW. Now I did like the design of the infant graboids, but the execution of just how they kill their prey is utterly laughable. There's literally a long shot of a man running towards the camera, and two of the roughly 3-foot creatures fly across the screen like catapult-launched sandbags; 'ramming' him to the ground. What? How in the hell does a leg-less worm-like creature generate the lift to launch itself into the air? I'm an avid fan of Godzilla, so I usually I am tolerant of the dismissal of reality, but this just infuriated me.Then there's the creatures themselves, because the film does include a few adult-sized graboids. The budget was obviously even lower than the last film's, just when you thought that wasn't possible. You hardly ever see the Graboids at all. I could count their screen time with my fingers and have some to spare. I mean this literally. When we do, the Graboid puppet is stiff and stationary, and they even occasionally use CGI tentacles, pissing me off. The whole time the characters are re-establishing everything we already know about the graboids, making every bit of the dialogue just annoying to the syllable.And the climax succeeds in only one thing: making a viewer want to rip his hair out. The graboid somehow manages to beach itself on the surface like a poor orca, and they hook a chain to its tail, which is, you guessed it, attached to the tractor. Reeling the graboid in ass first, it smashes into the machine at roughly 5-10 miles per hour and actually explodes into bite-sized chunks on impact. WHAT THE F*CK???!! If there truly was a deity out there somewhere, it would not have allowed this travesty to be unleashed upon audiences. The worst part is the utter destruction of Michael Gross' character. I'm not even gonna go into that, because that'd be another whole essay. I'm all for low-budget monster fun, but this was a steaming pile of Graboid turd.

i think i'll start by saying that the ending scene is one that all tremors fans will love.. but this particular movie, i didn't find that constant laughter like you did in the first three, no kevin bacon, no fred ward,, no "melvin" stuff like that,, i didn't get to laugh that often in this one,, and that kinda bothered me,, the story itself wasn't too bad,, old west, Hiram Gummer the mine owner is called in by the locals of Rejection, Nevada, to get rid of some of the original Graboids that have been eating the miners, there are some funny moments but way to far in between, there are a lot of times where things just seem to drag in this movie,, and that's just what i do not like in a movie, is the boring dragging from one scene to the next,, yeah some of it was very interesting,, but i just had a very hard time believing that Hiram Gummer was a mine executive,, all dressed up like that,, all the way from Philadelphia,, i think that the next tremors should be from where Fred Ward said in the first 2 outer space,, now that would be neat..
