"enough is enough!"

snakes on a plane. when i tell people i saw this movie, i get one of two common reactions: was it good? and why? well i'd like to answer the latter first. i went because the previews were unbelievable to me and i like the title. it's got to be one of the worst movie titles ever (although for me the worst is spanglish). but you can't get more specific than calling it 'snakes on a plane'. i mean, it's so simple it's genius. another reason i saw it is because i consider samuel l. jackson a demi-god. i truly do. the man can yell, swear and mug like no other. even in the most awful of movies (the name escapes me but the one he was in with ben affleck would fit here) to the best ('the red violin' and of course, 'pulp fiction') - he shines. i figured snakes on the plane wouldn't be any different. and i was not disappointed. i'll get to the point: the plot is ridiculous, the acting sucks and the writing is inane but, to quote mr. j, "it's the best worst movie i've ever seen". that's about it. you will laugh at how bad it is but at least you'll be laughing. of course, there is the ONE line that made me paying $6.50 seem worth it. you'll know the line when you hear it and hopefully you'll hear it all because in the theatre i was in - the whole audience busted up laughing. it was what going to the movies is all about. predictably, the movie has already reached cult status (check out http://snakesonablog.com) and i'm sure the dvd sales are going to go through the roof. my advice: if you want to see a good movie don't go but if you just want to go enjoy being at the movies - check it out. a/d-.
