Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile is a 2022 American live-action/computer-animated musical comedy film directed by Will Speck and Josh Gordon from a screenplay by William Davies. It is an adaptation of the children's story of the same name and its prequel The House on East 88th Street by Bernard Waber. The film stars Shawn Mendes as the titular character alongside Javier Bardem, Constance Wu, Winslow Fegley, Scoot McNairy, and Brett Gelman.

Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile was released in the United States on October 7, 2022, by Columbia Pictures via Sony Pictures Releasing. The film has grossed $38 million worldwide and received mixed to positive reviews from critics, with praise for the visuals, Shawn Mendes’ vocal performance, and the acting (particularly that of Bardem).

Plot

In New York City, a charismatic magician named Hector P. Valenti wants to try out on a national talent show, but is constantly rejected. One day after a failed audition he wanders into an exotic pet store and finds a singing baby crocodile and names him Lyle. Seeing Lyle as an opportunity to get rich in the talent business, he places his 3-story Victorian brownstone home as collateral for their performance, but Lyle gets stage fright during the premiere and Valenti loses the home. Valenti is forced to move out and reluctantly leaves Lyle to fend for himself while he tries to make more money.

Eighteen months later, a family called the Primms moves into the house. Josh is initially terrified of moving into his new home and struggles to make friends at school. One night, he discovers Lyle, now fully grown, living in the attic, and they become friends when Lyle saves Josh from a mugger and demonstrates his singing talent. Josh's stepmother and father eventually find out about Lyle, and though they are initially terrified of him, they bond with Lyle over their favorite hobbies. One day, Valenti returns to the house to visit Lyle, as an agreement states he can live in the house fifteen days of the year. He makes another attempt to get Lyle to perform on stage, but it fails as Lyle still has stage fright.

Meanwhile, Mr. Grumps, the Primms' unfriendly downstairs neighbor, becomes annoyed by the loud activity caused by Lyle, Valenti, and the Primms. Determined to put an end to it, he has cameras installed to find out what is going on, but manages to achieve his goal by bribing Valenti to sell out Lyle in exchange for money to pay his debts. Lyle is unable to convince the authorities of his benevolent nature because of his stage fright and is locked up at the zoo. Feeling guilty for what he did to Lyle, Valenti goes to break him out of the zoo with Josh's help. Valenti and Lyle reconcile with each other before Lyle escapes with Josh to the talent show while Valenti distracts the authorities. On stage, Lyle manages to overcome his stage fright with help from Josh, and his singing talent is critically acclaimed by the audience and viewers.

One month later, a trial is held to determine whether or not Lyle may be free. The judge ultimately decides to rule over Mr. Grumps in favor of Lyle when Valenti reveals that the deed to his house was written out to his grandmother, who built the house and founded the New York City Zoo where Lyle was previously kept, allowing her to keep exotic animals as pets. After the trial, the Primms celebrate Lyle's freedom by taking him on vacation, while Valenti becomes acquainted with a new talented animal: a beatboxing rattlesnake owned by Josh's friend, Trudy.

Cast

Production

Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile is a feature film adaptation of both the children's story of the same name and its prequel The House on East 88th Street, both of which were written by Bernard Waber.[11][12] Both books were previously adapted as a 1987 animated HBO special titled Lyle, Lyle Crocodile: The Musical – The House on East 88th Street, which was also a musical. It was announced in May 2021 with filmmaking duo Will Speck and Josh Gordon attached to direct from a screenplay by William Davies for Sony Pictures.[13][14] Filming took place in New York City in September 2021.[15][16] Notable filming locations include 85th Street,[17] 86th Street,[18] Astor Place and Bowery station,[19] and Broadway, between 45th Street and 46th Street.[20] Visual effects were handled by Framestore, Method, OPSIS, and Day for Nite.[21]

The website's consensus reads: "Parents may not be beguiled, but Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile is bound to make most children smile."[32] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 51 out of 100, based on 17 critics, indicating "mixed or average" reviews.[33] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A-" on an A+ to F scale, while those at PostTrak gave it an 80% overall positive score, with 62% saying they would definitely recommend it.[29][30]

Abby Olcese gave the film a score of two out of four stars, noting its inspiration by the Paddington films, and concluding the film: "good enough that it may well have staying power at sleepovers and family movie nights for years to come."[34] Nell Minow, writing for RogerEbert.com, was more positive in her review of the film, giving it a score of 3 out of 4 stars. She wrote: "it's not quite up to the “Paddington” level of movie adaptations of classic children's books. But it is a warm-hearted family film with great musical numbers that will make another generation of kids hopefully search the attic on the chance that they might find a singing crocodile."[35] Cath Clarke of The Guardian gave the film a mixed review and wrote: "It’s heart is there and it’s family fun."[36] Ryan Leston /Film called the film "charming and entertaining.", praising the character of Hector.[37]
