This movie is complete fun. Plenty of laughs, violence and cool one-liners. What's not to love about this film?
There were some ok parts to this movie, but overall the lesson that should be learned here is that Samuel L. Jackson should fire (if he hasnt already) his manager.....
I love this movie. This is a A-list B movie. The movie was intentionally bad. It was a comedy and a action movie. God Bless You Samuel Leroy Jackson

Problem was it tried way to hard to be "so bad its good". It just falls flat on its face, and was just terrible. Hilarious to see harmless corn/king/milk snakes being pushed through the vents as if they were dangerous. Also, a movie about snakes, youd think they would know the simple facts about them....Dangerous snakes are venomous, people! Not poisononous. -_- It wasnt even entertaining at all.
With all the spoofs and tongue-in-cheek movies out there, I was pretty glad that someone finally made a movie that wasn’t meant to be taken seriously, but wasn’t just another cliché parody. The only problem there is that Snakes on a Plane isn’t good.
- Boredom. The opening first hour is so insanely slow I honestly didn’t even think I was watching an action movie. Even now that it’s over, I’m not sure “action” is the right genre. Sure, the snake attacks were pretty intense when they started, but nothing special. I was bored through the majority of the runtime.
- Blandness. The majority of the plot, minus the snakes, is exactly what you’ve seen a thousand times. Mob boss, endangered suspect, people screaming and running around, “we have to work together” scene, ending, and countless scenes of pointless dialogue between. Even the snake attacks themselves were predictable. Really, who doesn’t know where a snake is going to bite a naked passenger in a “hardcore” movie like this? It’s nothing new. Nothing special. Even the “weird” characters were copy/pasted from every horror-comedy ever made.
The only thing I can really complement on is Samuel L. Jackson’s acting, which is flawless, as always. Still, it’s just boring seeing him play the same tired FBI agent role.
Seriously, after seeing so many movies like this I just ask: what’s the point? It seems like every movie out there has an “original” catch (such as snakes on a plane) but do everything else exactly the same as every other movie. What’s the point?
People always try to argue that something can be unoriginal and still good, but I disagree wholesale. There is no suspense or mystery, because you’ve seen the same plot so many times you know exactly what is going to happen, even if it has something as blunt as snakes on a plane. It doesn’t captivate you. And that’s the same sad story with Snakes on a Plane. It’s not bad, it’s just so typical I can’t help but think my time would have been better spent doing something else.

I don't know whats crazier, the fact his movie is called Snakes on a Plane or the fact it spells SOAP, or the fact was actually pretty good. The movie in general is pretty much all your normal hollywood tricks & story ideas with a little extra comedy to spice it up and the ending is the classic everyone wins scenario. Some half-decent performances by some unknown faces are put out of focus with Samuel's all too serious acting (For the comedy). In all the movie was pretty fun to watch and fairly entertaining - a good group of friends movie.
Not bad, but not too good either. I have this weird fear of snakes, so a lot of the scenes had me a little nervous, but aside from that this movie has absoltuely nothing to offer. Did they try to make this good?
wow, i just saw this one, not having high hopes but at the end i was actually wanting to clap. a horrible sounding movie turned out to be kinda disturbing a couple of scenes and extremely entertaining! half way through i was setting on the edge of my couch waiting for the next scare! if you haven't seen this yet get it now!
