I just got back from seeing this. It's awesome, Jackson is great in it. It's better I thought it would be becaues I thought it was going to be a campy cooky movie.

The characters aren't much but that's not the point, the point is there's a bunch of ****** snakes on a plane.

There's plenty of moments that made me go 'ouch' and shook me up.

Go check it out.

4/5 just because it's pretty much what a summer movie should be:fun.

But I strongly recommend NOT taking the kids to this.

Now, if it were playing at the Bijou, that'd be something.

I saw it today, but I can only rate it 2.5 out of 5.  There was just too much that didn't make sense for me to give it a higher rating (even if it is just summer escapist entertainment).  Not bad, but I can't recommend it.

*spoilers*

Y'know the one thing I can really complain about is that giant boa. I thought we were going to see more of it but I was rather disappointed. I even hoped that Jackson was going to fight it with a knife near the end of the movie.

Oh well.

Someone here in Phoenix took a couple of snakes into an AMC theater where "Snakes on a Plane" is playing and let them loose. Talk about the Real expirience.

Yea, read it on Drudgereport yesterday. Crazy............I hear the authorities are still looking for those responsible.

Saw this Sunday night.  I have to say, this was the most fun I've had at the movies all year.  I loved it, I really did!  Even bought the soundtrack.  hehehe.  Oh, it was cheesy, stupid plot, and some bad effects, but still.  I thought it was funny and had a couple of, well, ok, ONE jolt moment.  But I was surprised at how many good people were in it....I didn't realize before hand, so it was a treat to be sitting there and seeing not only Sam Jackson, but Lin Shaye!  And I like Bobby Cannavale (from the Station Agent and Shall We Dance?.  Hate the Gere, but love that movie.)

Anyway, I really enjoyed it.

My son and I went yesterday and had a blast. How come nobody has mentioned the Hiss-o-vision effect?

Okay, the CG snakes were kinda cheesy, the whole concept is beyond ridiculous, but the actors all played it straight. Sam Jackson was right, this is basically a high budget Roger Corman movie for 2006.  

Loved, the "gay" male flight attendant, Three G's entourage, and the trash talking copilot.

"Great , snakes on crack!"



And you thought Trek isn't cool.

Just saw it and had a great time. It is silly beyond words, but incredible fun. The fate of the dog was a nice touch. I was wondering the whole time what would happen to it. Also, they stuck to some of the traditional disaster movie codes, such as sex = death. I was kinda hoping that something spectacular would happen with the kickboxer. He was underused as a character. Still it is a blast.
