So yeah. I was expecting it to be the kind of B movie that's like "This Island Earth" which is just so bad you laugh at it. But SOAP threw me for a loop. It's not bad. In fact it's actually pretty decent as far as movies go.
Plus it's just fucking brilliant.
Aside from the whole "bad movie being good" thing, it's exactly what you'd expect. Snakes. Samuel L. Jackson killing snakes. Snakes biting people. People dying. Samuel L. Jackson killing more snakes. On a plane.
You kind of forget the fact that the entire concept is totally bogus, because they do a decent job of convincing you that, yes, there are snakes on the plane and everyone on board is in danger of dying from those snakes or from falling on sharp objects or the plane crashing and it's scary and dangerous and at the same time, freaking hilarious and fun as hell.
Yeah, that's what I'd say if I had to sum this movie up in one word.
FUN.
It's a bit gorier than I expected but nothing too bad. And seriously, how can you not laugh at the poor guy in the bathroom who gets a snake attached to his...snake...and proceeds to shout, "You fucking snake let go of my dick!"
It's fun. It's brilliant. It's Samuel L. Jackson killing snakes. It's Snakes On a Plane.
Go. See. It.
Score: 8.5 out of 10
