Snakes on a Plane (DVD) ... Lawson ... / DVD released 26 December, 2006 at Entertainment In Video / Features of the DVD: Anamorphic, PAL / Snakes on a Plane knows exactly what kind of movie it is, knows exactly what moviegoers expect from a title like Snakes on a Plane, and delivers the exact pleasures of a movie in which poisonous snakes are unleashed on a plane to kill an eyewitness to murder. Samuel L. Jackson (Pulp Fiction, The Long Kiss Goodnight) knows exactly what he's doing in this movie and knows exactly when to pull out the superbad Samuel L. Jackson stare and deliver the infuriated Samuel L. Jackson bellow. The rest of the cast--including Julianna Margulies (ER), Rachel Blanchard (the TV series Clueless), Kenan Thompson (Fat Albert), David Koechner (Anchorman), Bobby Canavale (The Station Agent), and Sunny Mabrey (One Last Thing...)--play their parts with admirably straight faces and deadpan humor. Director David R. Ellis (Final Destination 2, Cellular) gives the movie the much-needed headlong momentum you would expect from a former stunt coordinator. In summation: A perfect piece of self-aware but not self-conscious high camp entertainment, blending comedy and thrills in perfect proportion. --Bret Fetzer

 ... the pilot's suffering heart failure after being bitten meaning that the plane is completely unmanned as well as filled with poisonous serpents. This unsophisticated but entertaining plot is followed up by a less engaging subplot in which an FBI agent (Bobby Canavale) on the ground uncovers the Mafioso's scheme in order to prepare an anti-venom for the surviving passengers, but the majority of the action sees frantic passengers desperately fighting off cgi/rubber snakes with anything that comes to hand, whilst Jac...more

Unfortunately, Kim catches wind of this and loads the plan with deadly snakes driven wild by pheromones sprayed on flowers in the cargo hold.

"Snakes on a Plane" is quite simply one of the best movies in recent years at hitting it's target audience and doing exactly what it says on the tin.

Samuel L Jackson stars in this all action film about well obviously some snakes on a plane! But there is a bit more to it than that!

Samuel L Jackson is FBI agent Neville Flynn who has the job of getting Sean from Hawaii to LA in order to testify against the mobster and put him away. Reluctantly and fearing for his life Sean agrees to this. The FBI think of all possible scenarios of Eddie getting to the witness, but they didn't think of this one. The mobster arranges for numerous deadly snakes to be loaded on to ...  Read the complete review

As a film fan you have to be wary of any movies that the News of the World give five stars to on the dust-cover, that the only compliment of note to be associated with this notorious B-Movie horror flick. It was reported that the star, Mr. Samuel L Jackson, tried to wriggle out of the project early on, once he realized the back-story to its creation, the coolest dude on the planet screaming the line mid movie: "I've had enough of these motherf**ng snakes on this motherf**ing plane", a fitting epitaph for this films place in movie history. So notorious was this project in Hollywood that the line is now in the top 50 A.F.I. (American Film Institute) all-time ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review So simple (199 words)

What could be more fun then Snakes on a Plane. This is an incredibly stupid film, but i believe that it makes fun of the fact just enough for it to be allowed. I heard that they were going to change the name, however Samual L. Jackson would only play the part if they kept it to Snakes on a Plane. Its good as you know that when you watch it, you know what to expect. I wont go into detail on the story. In fact i wont touch on the story at all. All that you need to know in in the title. Its not the most realistic film. In fact its completely unrealistic. But there is the fun of it. So many films no subscribe to the set notion that everything has to ...  Read the complete review

This film came on television some time ago, and since I had heard it was a good film, I decided to give it a go. I do remember reading an article about the film before it was actually released, and had, admittedly intended to see it at the cinema. However, I did not have the chance, but I did not mind only getting to see it on television in the end. Story A witness to a brutal crime is being taken to Los Angeles, where he is needed to testify. The people he is testifying against want him dead, and so they manage to get a whole load of deadly snakes on board the plane, which are released during flight. Although normally snakes are unlikely to ...  Read the complete review
