Plot:
An FBI agent escorting an eyewitness on a flight has to deal with a plane full of deadly snakes released by the criminal who wants the witness dead.

Hm…, I have to say, I enjoyed it. I sat in the cinema and was extremely tense for the first 80 mins, too much was happening at once and there seemed a lot of unnecessary ‘snake wandering’ around people’s bodies (you’ll know what I mean if you go to see the film).
However, there was a fair few “jumpy-outy moments” which is what you’d expect with a thriller and Samuel L Jackson was fantastic. The end was really funny (on purpose) and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

If you like Samuel L Jackson – just go and see it; it’s a lot better than I expected considering I only went to see the film because of the title (it does exactly what it says on the tin!).
