Just perfect...
Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Excellent but underrated film
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
I gave it a 5 out of 10, I was up late tonight and needed something to watch. Well it was Snake night on SyFy, this was one of the better movies yes its contrived and the acting was very average however I did enjoy the movie nearly can't explain it for a TV Movie made on a small budget the CGI was better than some more recent offerings for this network. Some silly dialogue and plot devices made me laugh at first I thought it wasn't deliberate and while the movie is not tongue and cheek silly it did feel like the director wanted to lift the film by going at it straight forward so that the laughs are intentional because there is no way this movie was meant to be anything else. Would I buy the movie on DVD no but if you're spending a weekend morning in, having a rain/snowday or up late this movie could fit the bill.
Boa vs. Python (2004) ** (out of 4) An idiotic businessman has a group bring in an eight-foot python so that he can sell a hunting trip to a bunch of other idiots. Sure enough the creature breaks free and starts killing people. A government man brings in the help of a scientist who just happens to have been producing a large boa who they are going to use to track down the python. Sound stupid? Well, it is but thankfully the filmmakers knew that the story was silly and they never once try to take it too serious and instead they just add on the cheese and in the end we're left with a decent little flick that doesn't try to do anything more than charm. The movie also knows to play around with the viewer and it's clear the screenwriter knew that mostly guys would be watching this thing as they throw in a hot chic with a snake tattoo on her back and of course we get a slow motion bath scene where she's not only showing off her naked body but lathering it up as well. The story is incredibly stupid but that actually works for the film because you can't help but laugh and just go wherever it decides to take you. Naturally everything is going to end in an epic battle but before we get there we get other silly things including a sex scene between the snakes. Thankfully the majority of it is off camera. The characters are all rather interesting in a "B" movie kind of way. None of the performances are Oscar-worthy but they're at least good enough for this type of thing. I've already mentioned the hot girl but we get her nutty boyfriend, a couple hick hunters and of course a silly Rambo-wannabe. Before this film we did have both BOA and PYTHON but this film thankfully has nothing to do with them. The snakes here are obviously CGI but neither one looks overly bad. Well, let's just say they do look back but in a cartoonish way they look okay. I do think the film would have been better had the battle scenes been expanded just a tad bit because the 92-minute running time does drag in spots. With that said, if you're actually considering watching a movie called BOA VS. PYTHON then you should know what you're getting into.
I was looking forward to this movie, because I loved Python and thought Boa was okay. Unfortunately, these are two completely new snakes, and it has absolutely NOTHING to do with Boa (aka New Alcatraz), Python, or Python 2 (although that may be a good thing considering how much that one sucked). It does keep the spirit of Python 1 alive, being rather tongue-in-cheek and not taking itself too seriously like Python 2 did. Also, the cover is LIES. The snakes fight for about 10 minutes. There's plenty of other stuff happening, but when the movie is called Boa vs. Python you wanna see a Boa fighting a Python dangit! Still a fun movie, but don't expect the kind of action the cover promises.
by making me truly appreciate the power of a horrible film. This was the first poor film I saw, but certainly wasn't the last."Say, Billy! I hear you want to make a movie. Well, sit back and I'll give you a few pointers about movie making: Your female protagonist should be sexy, and, if possible, loose her top at least once during the film. This will keep your bored audience at attention, waiting for another possible slip. Well, if they're male. Millionaires are idiots, all of them. Remember, they may have displayed some prowess making their fortunes by their late 20s and early 30s, but it was all luck. Leave a few questions unanswered, and try to stuff a sex scene in somewhere. Running out of money for your budget? Buy off a few minor folks to serve as actors. Models will serve. Beef up those graphics. Remember, the government is incompetent on how to deal with monsters."Seriously, this film deserves a place in your hall of fame. I originally watched it on the Sci-Fi channel, and, despite the poor quality, kept watching it in hopes that the lovely Jaime Bergman would show more of herself. It starts out somewhat believable. This rich young man (trying to pose himself as a tough guy) and his sexy, masculine girlfriend are hanging out. Eventually, the girl pulls out a gun, and the two of them hop up to boink. These two morons have a bunch of equally stupid friends who are all ready and willing to hunt a huge reptile, which is brought in from outside the country. Their posse is a bunch of clichéd, flat characters with nothing deeper than their accent and costumes. Over the course of the film, they all die, Jaime and a stupid snake raiser release a big snake to slither off and slaughter the enemy snake, the Python. Well, it ends up with one guy with a flame thrower killing some folks for no reason, getting eaten, then the Python dying in a subway. The Boa just kind of disappears.Ultimately, this film ends up being on a flimsy basis, with some crappy acting, poorly developed characters, and a more or less "by-the-book" storyline. By which, I mean, good guy gets the girl out of his league. This is all complete with the normal incompetence of FBI and government agents, since civilians are much more able to deal with a major crisis.It's all just a reason to show two snakes fighting each other. Over all, there were four valuable things I took from the film, and carry with me.1) A nice bikini shot, and some brief nudity.2) Every Sci-Fi Channel movie follows the same basic plot, and are chocked full of red shirt characters.3) A fun new game to play with my girl friend. ("Hey, how do you catch a 100 foot snake?" "Get a bigger snake!" (By the way, the Boa, who was supposed to capture the Python, was actually smaller... and the Python wasn't 100 feet.))4) An appreciation for crappy works of 'art', such as poor video games and movies. And for people who enjoy poor movies for the comedy, this gains around a 7/10. However, for the mainstream, 2/10
