PX EFERTAINME,N IE [6 | sounds like Samuel L, Jackson's 1994 Samuel L. Jackson's latest movie, exact opposite of all that maybe: $ summer, 2W it. Maybe it was the ifiled its purpose in Whole experience. those at were ant during the Nass ng vis movie that me is film enjoyable rom beginning tend. Se ae ae Ine Reno SERGE RO TR AEGIS FORTS icc cia then this movie is definitely not for you. It's almost like the anti-chick flick: it gives you everything that movies like The Notebook fail to provide. This movie has gruesome deaths, heavy violence, nudity and cheesy humor. What else could you possibly ask for? It gets no better than that The movie's plot is fairly simple to understand. A kid named Sean Jones (played by Nathan Phillips) witnesses a mob murder in Hawaii and is escorted by Neville Flynn (Samuel L. Jackson) to Los Angeles via aircraft to testify. The rest of the story is in the name of the movie: venomous snakes are unleashed aboard the flight, and then the chaos ensues. It's always fun when you get to see Samuel L. Jackson whack some snakes like you've never seen before. | Violence, blood, and gore exist throughout the film and it is kind of unpredictable at times. Other than Jackson, you never really know who the sriakes will target next, and you don't really know who will liyvevaind Who Will die until the very end. Eas Movies made like that are fun to watch, and Jacksons clearly the reason for this movie's success. His acting, clever promoting, his dedication and drive all make Jackson a tremendous actor and help make Snakes on 2 Pine a hit at the box office. He is without a doubt, one of the most under- raled actors in Hollywood. He puts passion and solid effort in every single mbvie that he is in, and he did the same in Snakes on a Plane. He'portrayed Neville Flynn as a calm and cool police officer who doesn't take anything from anybody. Nobody could have fit the role better than Jackson. if he was Crank can almost be called Transporter 3: The Crank as it stars the sdme actor (Jason Statham) as Transporter and Transporter 2. Statham plays the same type of character, an assassin, Not seeing Transporteror the 2% one, this actor was unknown tome, but this was a good action movie for Co-directors Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor. It starred an almost unknown cast except for the lead characters Statham and Amy Smart (Just Friends). For any of the Napoleon Dynamite 's out there, you will recognize Efren Ramirez (Pedro from Napoleon Dynamite) is in the movie as a minor character. The plot of the story stars Statham as an assassin named Chev WesternCarolinian not in S.o.a-P, this movie would have been a failure and would have bombed at the box office. Jackson helps bring Snakes on a Plane to a higher level, and the rest of the cast was pretty decent. Nathan Phillips delivered a solid performance playing the role of Sean Jones. Keenan Thompson from the movie Good Burger and Mighty Ducks actually delivers some clever lines in this film, and the flight attendant Claire Miller (played by Julianna Margulies) played a significant role as well The special effects in the movie were decent, but too obvious. Any Person can tell the difference between a real snake and a CGI computer animated snake. The CGI snakes were too noticeable; it was like watching a cartoon snake with the same animation as the movie Shrek combined with live action. Maybe that's what the producers wanted, who knows? But don't let the cheesy graphics stop you from seeing the movie; it takes nothing away from this entertaining movie. The death scenes in this movie are top notch. The snakes do more than just hiss, bite, and lunge in this movie. They eat dogs, they suck body parts, and they wreak all kinds of havoc aboard the flight. One scene for example sticks out; it was probably the most gruesome scene you will see in a film all year. In the scene, a couple decides to join the mile high club, only to be attacked and killed by a snake in a very grotesque and crude manner. Perhaps the best thing about Snakes on a Plane is that it breaks from reality. The creators knew that this movie would be fun for the audience, no matter how unrealistic it might be. They knew the critics would hate it because of its stupid plot. The greatest gift you can take home from this movie is the fact that it breaks away from the serious world that we live in and gives the audience an hour and_a.halfsofipllre, popcorn-popping rock solid entertainment. Traleaaly ato latt ones fail to provide This movie lives up to what it is supposed to be and gives the audience everything they want and expect. He walk into the theatre expecting to see snakes on a plane, then you will not be 1d. If you expect to See snakes on a plane that kill people and cause all types of scary situations for passengers, then that's exactly what you will get. If you expect a cool bbad-boy like Samuel L. Jackson to help save the day and kill some snakes, while he's atit, you'll get that as well. Snakes on a Plane is definitely one of the best bad movies that could have ever been made. This movie has lived up to its slogan; it was so bad, that it was actually good. You wil enjoy it from its awkward beginning to its anti-climatic ending. This will be one bad movie that audiences will love. Crank is heart-pounding, adrenaline action By Zach Colburn Wenewsmagazine 2.5 out of 5 stars Chelios who is poisoned with a Beijing cocktail and must keep his heart rate up by any means necessary or he will die. He goes to great lengths to keep his adrenaline up, such as making out with his gitifriend, Eve (Smart), being chased by the cops, and even getting juiced by shock plates to get his heart rate up. He tries to get revenge on the people who poisoned him plus anyone else who has done him wrong before he dies. In my opinion, it was a decent movie with a few good action scenes, butthe plot seemed rather bland, and the lack of known supporting characters was a downfall for the movie. | give it a B- on the grading scale.
