Snakes on a Plane: Sure, the title is cute. The problem is they billed this movie as some kind of action comedy and it’s about as mean-spirited as it comes with a high body count. So it’s a horror comedy without a punch line. I know why Samuel L. Jackson’s in it. He read the title and decided to be a part of the picture. I have no idea why Juliana Marguiles is in this movie, but she should kick her agent in the junk. In addition to being devoid of laughs, the script, about snakes released on an airplane to kill a witness in the least efficient manner, is BAD. I know, I know, that’s how it sold itself. Samuel L. Jackson’s first line, “Do what I say if you want to live” is regurgitated every time someone can’t write a good introductory line to an action picture. Woodchuck sez, “Skip it.”
