Movie's like these require low expectations. I had such for Independence Day, and though I wasn't blown away, I wasn't disappointed either. Same is to be said about 'Snakes on a Plane.' The title didn't lie, there's not much more to this movie other than a pane and a whole bunch of poisonous snakes on board. Of course there is also Samuel Jackson. I enjoyed it very much and felt that there was nothing there below what I expected, and there was even some parts that I thought clever. Point is, if you pick up this movie, and your IQ is above 15 then you should probably know what you are getting in to. And you get it - in Spades. I found it a really cool, fun way to enjoy a movie. It didn't require much thought, just reaction. I think we all need that kind of a movie here and there just like we all need some junk food from time to time. Can't wait for the sequel, 'Snakes on a Train' where I hear they'll have an Anaconda the length of three train cars!
It wasn't quite Shawshank Redemption, but I am sure if Morgan Freeman was narrating over it, then it would have been close.
