OVERALL
You get what you paid for. You want mother-effin' Samuel L. Jackson on a plane with a lot of mother-effin' snakes... you GET mother-effin' Samuel L. with a lot of m... you get my point.
If Jackson's roll was played by any other actor, this movie would be shown on the Sci-Fi channel, edited for TV with a lot of commercials. If it were actually released to theatres, or even straight to DVD... not too many people would be interested. Well... except for the title.
The main marketing focuses of this movie was THE LINE by Jackson, and the name of the movie itself. Snakes On A Plane. You know what you're going to get. But releasing this movie in all of it's R-rated greatness, you get people acting badly with a bad script.. .but Jackson MAKES this movie.
Overall, this is a pretty dismal movie when it comes to acting and dialogue. But directors David R. Ellis and Lex Halaby made this movie an experience. You don't go to enjoy the movie, but to enjoy the entire aspect of the movie.
PRO vs. NO
PRO: This movie may not be on the level as "Army Of Darkness", but it has just enough dark humour that it's worth it for a drinking game, or just to revel in the greatness that is Samuel L. Jackson.
NO: This movie was not meant to be a good movie, but the directors tried. It was a little long at 104 minutes, and the supporting characters were just an afterthought.
SIX WORD FINISH
"F***ing snake! Get off my d***!"
FINAL BELL
-- 3 out of 5 -- Watch this movie with a group of people who are open minded, love bad horror movies, or just Samuel L. Jackson. You'll thank me.
WORTH THE PRICE OF ADMISSION?:
Not by yourself. See this movie with many people.
