Jonathan O Jan 23 We've seen good and bad films from the past and snakes on the plane has both sides and yet is really entertaining, silly and frighting snakes horror film and the writing is a bit cringe however one of the best Samuel L. Jackson performance including best quotable lines of all time. And some of the snakes are cgi but some are real just like Hitchcock's The Birds. See more TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch Dec 2 Snakes on a Plane is one of those rare films that manages to be both terrible and wildly entertaining at the same time. It’s the kind of chaotic, over-the-top disaster that shouldn’t work in any capacity, yet somehow becomes enjoyable purely because of how ridiculous it is. Samuel L. Jackson delivers exactly the kind of unfiltered performance audiences expected from him, especially with his now-iconic outburst that instantly became a pop-culture staple. Nothing about this movie is meant to be taken seriously. The plot is absurd from the very start, and the execution only amplifies that absurdity. From outrageous kills to a snake attacking a man’s private parts, the film leans so far into its own stupidity that it becomes impossible not to laugh. It’s one of the most bizarre cinematic roller coasters ever made, and the fact that it embraces its own nonsense makes it strangely charming. Samuel L. Jackson ends up being the glue that holds this mess together. His comedic timing, his frustration, and his absolute commitment to the bit elevate the entire movie. You can almost sense that he knew exactly what kind of film he was in, and he chose to have fun with it rather than fight against it. His presence alone turns what could have been an unwatchable disaster into a loud, chaotic, and unexpectedly enjoyable experience. The screenplay is undeniably awful, but honestly, how do you write something called Snakes on a Plane and make it anything other than a mess? It zigzags between camp, tension, and pure nonsense, but its lack of seriousness ends up becoming its biggest strength. It’s a disaster, yes — but it’s a fun disaster. What’s especially surprising is how committed the production is to delivering entertainment, even when the story is falling apart at the seams. The film never pretends to be something it isn’t; it leans into the B-movie energy with full force. The director seems fully aware of the chaos unfolding and embraces the absurdity, allowing the movie to find its place as a ridiculous but oddly memorable cult favorite. Snakes on a Plane may be a bad film, but it’s the kind of bad that keeps you laughing and shaking your head the entire time. It’s pure, unapologetic nonsense — and that’s exactly why it works. If you’re looking for something outrageous, goofy, and entertaining in all the wrong ways, this is absolutely worth a watch.

If you're a fan of self-aware, campy humor with a bit of ophidiophobia, then this movie is right up your alley. Grading: C- See more Barbara F @BabsF.

I really love this movie and recommend to watch with friends See more Korra N Jun 13 Ridiculous, hilarious & unnecessarily violent, Snakes On A Plane is both so-bad-it's-good & yet pretty good in some regards, with the cast knowing exactly what they signed up for & a solid heaping of gnarly kills.
