Movie: Snakes On A Plane...

Synopsis: A young man named Sean Jones (Nathan Phillips) witnesses vicious and powerful mobster Eddie Kim (Byron Lawson) brutally murder a prosecutor bent on putting the crime mogul behind bars. Soon Kim's men raid Jones' house and attempt to kill him, but are stopped by Nelville Flynn (Samuel L Jackson): an experienced FBI agent who convinces Jones to fly to LA to testify against Kim. Aboard the flight are an obnoxious British Buisnessman, a famous Hip Hop star, an anxious man with severe flight anxiety and his wife, a young woman and her dog, and a ticking crate full of vicious and venomous snakes unleashed by an assassin to bring down the plane along with the witness to Kim's brutal murder. Can the passengers come together to survive or will Kim's plot succeed.

Um... ya. Not sure what to say about this one. AK and I didn't have much of a choice regarding this one... We were over @ JM's house visiting him, Missy, and the twins. He had rented the movie so we all sat down and watched it... kinda.

From what I've heard, Samuel Jackson took on this movie before even reading the script. Just by reading the title he was sure that it was going to be a cult movie. That being said, I was expecting a lot more than was delivered. The plot could have been worse, I suppose... but the special effects could not have been. Geez... it was one of the poorest over-uses of CG I've seen... I guess I shouldn't have expected anything more... meh. I can't say I'd even recommend this for rental :p donno really.
