I dont need to explain the plot do i!? Just look at the title!!. All you want to know is, was it worth all that hype. Well, yes & no. Its a very entertaining film. But there is alot of problems.
But lets concentrate on the good for now. Sam Jackson, is good, as always, if a little over-acted in parts. The support cast, the guy from Wolf Creak & the hot girl from Species III & xXx 2 are both good. As is near enough everyone. However most of the non-main characters are very cliche'd. There's an arsehole, a mother & daughter, 2 young brothers, a horny couple, a paris hilton type dumb girl with her dog, a famous (********) rapper & his bodyguards. But hey its all fun. Plus there are a fair few funny lines.
And there was one moment that even made me kind of jump, which is usually impossible.
Now the bad things, well theres the daft plot, but we dont really care about that. But the actual problems with ther film are as follows. It plays like an "Unrated" version of a PG13 movie, rather than a proper R rated film. The bits that were added in during the "reshoots" seem very obvious some times. Alot of the swearing is added in when you cant see a characters mouth. It could've been a PG13 fine i think. The action is often very close up and sometimes hard to tell whats going on, like alot of PG13 actioners recently (AVP, Bourne, MR & Mrs smith). But the worst part is the CGi, its horrid. People complained about Anaconda/s having bad CG, well this is often worse. Even when there simply slithering along the ground they look fake, there's the odd real one on there, but it still looks wrong. But its when they jump on the people its almost laughably bad. But i guess thats sort of the point in this sort of "B movie".
Its extremelly entertaining, and anyone who has a sense of fun (or liked Eight Legged Freaks) should enjoy this. Just what ever you do, dont take a "critic" with you.
7/10

👍 That's a great film, I saw it for about the 15th time not too long ago.
