Plot: Forget terrorists or hijackers -- there's a handful of deadly assassins aboard a jet liner and they don't even have arms or legs in this airborne thriller. Neville Flynn (Samuel L. Jackson) is an FBI agent handling what seems like a routine assignment -- serving as bodyguard for Sean Jones (Nathan Phillips), a Hawaiian surfer dude who is flying to California to testify in a high-profile criminal trial after witnessing mobster Eddie Kim (Byron Lawson) murdering one of his underlings. However, Flynn's job gets a lot more challenging when he discovers Kim's associates don't want Jones to talk, and have devised a unique way to ensure his silence. A cache of highly dangerous poisonous snakes has been hidden on board the jet, and is released using a timed mechanism once the flight is well underway. The snakes quickly attack several members of the flight crew and are eagerly eying the passengers when Flynn decides its time to get medieval on the reptiles. Also starring Rachel Blanchard, Benjamin McKenzie, and Mark Houghton, Snakes on a Plane was produced under the title of Pacific Air Flight 121, but in several interviews Samuel L. Jackson expressed his enthusiasm for the script's original title, Snakes on a Plane, and the high-concept moniker quickly made the film's title and theme a favorite with bloggers and on Internet fan sites all over the world. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Unfair To Snakes!
Added 10/16/2009

Unfair To Snakes, actors, audience and filmdom. An intentionally bad film that is still bad; but fun. Like a Twinkie. Snakes don't act like this and a scientist tells us. Films aren't made like this; except without viewer support; but you have to look that up. Internet phenomenon film freak! FutureFanFilm is a stand alone. Intentionally bad but satisfying, well done and stupid. Tops in sound and picture is up there, way up there...

What was Samuel L. Jackson thinking???

This is without a doubt the worst movie I've seen in years. I can't believe SLJ took this part! He must have really needed the money.

Fun, but not a good film.

After seeing this movie, I was actually suprised. The movie did a good job setting up the characters and Samuel L. Jackson did a decent job as the lead role. The snakes were a little dissapointing and it was easy to tell they were CGI. Although predictible and somewhat lame, it was a fun movie that was a nice watch on a hot summer day.

I Don't Care What Anybody Says. . .

this was a GREAT movie! I took my 18 year old nephew and we LOVED IT! Some of his friends sat near us and we all were screaming and laughing - yes laughing. If you take it for what it is, it's reminiscent of the "disaster movies" of the 1970's, with a silly plot, scenery chewing actors and loads of action. I thoroughly enjoyed it at the theatre and have since seen it two more times on TV. I made my boyfriend watch it and he even reluctantly admitted it wasn't that bad. Sam Jackson seems more annoyed by the snakes than anything and of course, saves the day. I would have loved to have been an extra in the movie. Especially the scene when everyone tries to go up the spiral staircase at the same time, and when the window opens! This is not a movie to be taken seriously people, it's just plain FUN. And when Sam Jackson delivered the famous line, the whole audience cheered, and clapped. Whenever I recommend it to people, they always say, "I don't like snakes". Well, neither do I and this isn't a movie about liking snakes, it's just a lot of fun.

The Bottom Line:

A much-hyped film which turned out to be much ado about nothing, Snakes on a Plane delivers exactly what it promises (stupid "so bad it's good" filmmaking and Airport-style camp) and so is not really worth recommending or not recommending: it's bad, but it's up to you to decide if it's bad in a good way or bad in a bad way.
