Snakes on a Plane

Pros: None
Cons: Not even Mr. Jackson could save this one from crashing

Snakes on a Plane is as dumb as its title suggests. While this B-grade movie was in production, it got a lot of buzz on the Internet from people basically making fun of it. The studios thought all this buzz would lead to Blair Witch Project ...

Pros: Great fun, wonderful kills, Sam is ultra-cool!
Cons: Not much in the way of plot or characters

WARNING: NO ONE UNDER 17 WILL BE ADMITED TO THIS REVIEW! Seriously - some salty language will creep in from time to time. Be warned. Honestly this is going to be the hardest movie I've ever reviewed. Anything you need to know about this movie ...

Pros: Samuel L. Jackson and the whole cast; very interesting story; humor was good
Cons: Some realism was lacking - sometimes the snakes looked like they were posing before attacking

About 5 days ago I went to see this movie. I love any kind of drama movies that take place on a plane. I loved Red Eye and Flightplan. Although I disliked Pirates of the Caribbean 2, if they ever came out with a movie called "Pirates on a Plane," I'll ...

Pros: Plenty of disaster movie cliches.
Cons: Plenty of disaster movie cliches.

Anyone who's been surfing the net over the last few months has probably picked up on the hype surrounding this upcoming flick. "Snakes on a Plane" has already become famous and endlessly quoted long before it even reached theatres. Can the film live up ...

Pros: Sammy!!!!
Cons: Pretty much everything else.

Far removed from all of the "Internet Buzz" about Snakes on a Plane, the wife and I decided to pop the DVD into our player and see what all the fuss was about. We weren't expecting much, and we certainly didn't get it. In fact, it just about hit ...

Pros: Can be enjoyed if you watch it as a comedy.
Cons: No way can you enjoy it if you take it even the slightest bit seriously.

Snakes on a Plane. "How was it Jeff" my friend Leona asked when I mentioned seeing the aforementioned movie back in the summer of 2006.Jeff: I laughed all the way through it.Leona: (Giggling) You're not supposed to laugh Jeff! A movie like ...

Pros: Sam Jackson, tongue in cheek humor
Cons: Where to start?

Snakes on a Plane is a movie that intends to be terribly funny. It's precisely the kind of movie you'd see floating around a Blockbuster shelf, had it not featured the star power of Samuel L. Jackson in it's credits. It's the kind of movie Michael Biehn ...

Pros: Great mix of humor and suspense! Its worth the attention its getting. Excellent cast!
Cons: None.

Hype, anticipation, and a strange mystique seemed to surround the theatrical release of a movie with a title so basic and B-grade sounding that some viewers like myself believed it was almost "too good" to be true. Could this movie actually be ...

Pros: None
Cons: Gratuitous bloodshed, over and over.

Most of the time, when a film isn't available for pre-screening by critics, it's for a good reason. Snakes on a Plane was released in that fashion, and the reason doesn't take much to figure out: the movie stinks, with a capital "S." I had ...

Pros: An all-around fun and entertaining killer animal romp with Samuel L. Jackson.
Cons: If you don't like these kinds of movies you probably won't like this.

For as long as movies have been around, there have been movies that have been hyped or ignored, and sometimes an odd combination of both. Snakes On a Plane kind of falls into that category. With plenty of hype all over the Internet months before it's ...

Pros: Simple easy to follow movie, gory, funny
Cons: None

Last semester in film class I learned about films of high concept. Basically what this means is films of high concept are very easy films to follow that one can describe in 25 words or less. Director Steven Spielberg is generally considered the father of ...

Pros: Samuel Jackson's performance. Some campy moments that are fun...
Cons: ...and other campy moments that are just stupid or even boring.

If there hadn't been so much hype about this movie, chances are I would not have gone out of my way to see it on opening weekend. But all the coverage made me think I was in for a "Blair Witch" type of pop-culture phenomenon...and I didn't want to miss ...

Pros: Samuel Jackson, the title, drop-dead gorgeous flight attendants, goofball ending
Cons: A slightly slow build-up, but it's not really serious

Pros: Snakes, humor, suspense
Cons: The plot has more holes than swiss cheese, it's not meant to be taken seriously.

Snakes On A Plane is one of those films I've checked out of the library and had on my Netflix Queue a few times but the time never seemed quite right. Although I love my share of horror films I have to be in the right mood for ones that involve ...

Pros: Snakes, hilarity, Samuel L Jackson.
Cons: Sam Jackson didn't say the 'm-f' word enough.

Whenever shelling out dough on any product, service or event, it's important to ask yourself what exactly is to be expected. I can say my Toyota isn't as good of a car as a Maserati, but my Toyota didn't cost anywhere near $100,000, so I can't get too ...
