Snakes on a Plane (2006)

I'm not sure what I was expecting from this movie, but boy was it a big ol' pile of dumb. The acting in the opening scene was actually shocking in its badness. The whole movie looked made-for-syfy-channel. Luckily about a half hour in, around the time the couple starting fucking AND smoking pot in the bathroom, the movie realized exactly what it was. Not only does the blond get bit on the nipple, this is followed up by another scene with a guy getting bit on the wang!

I don't know how Juliana Marguiles and Sam Jackson got talked into this. Still, kudos to justifying why the snakes were going crazy (apart of why I didn't watch this for four years was because I couldn't buy the snake rampage) with the pheromones, and the subplot with the Agent trying to find the anti-venom actually showed some attempt at a story.

All worth it for Jackson's famous line.

A much better line than Jackson's is the mob boss, upon being confronted by one of his goons that this is, to say the least, an unconventional plan:

DON'T YOU THINK I'VE EXHAUSTED EVERY OTHER OPTION

I know! That line was so weird because it immediately cuts away, almost mid-sentence, without any transition. Strange editing.

I'm scared to death of snakes and the "snake biting the wang" gag scared the shit out of me. During that scene in the theater I fearfully grabbed my dick harder than Paul Reubens.

Have you seen Jackass 2 by any chance, Scott?

Cinematic proof that you can't will a cult film into existence. It must happen organically.

Yeah. That was bittersweet in that there was OMG COBRA as well as LOL BAM CRYING.

This is the one movie I own that I've thought of selling. Got it as a gift. What a piece of shit.

Saw this in the theater for the experience of seeing it with a full crowd. Even within that context, it was still a pretty middling experience. Never laid eyes on the movie again.

It's a standard, fairly generic actionish flick. It's got some amusing gags...but overall, nothing too out of the ordinary from your average 'scyfy' original
