Snakes On A Plane (2006)

There's just enough plot-line to substantiate the presence of poisonous snakes on a plane. From there it's pretty much non-stop venom action, as passengers and crew alike proceed to be attacked by deadly vipers.

If this is what you expect going in, you'll be mildly entertained. If you are hoping for something more, it's best you intoxicate yourself first. Overused clichés come at you faster than angry snakes. I found myself groaning at the sight of carbon-copied scenes stolen from old movies. Scenes that were bad the first time they were used.

Great marketing, poor product.

Sucker Punch (2011)

As talented as Zach Snyder is at making things look on screen, without a cohesive script, it’s simply unrewarding eye candy. I love hot chicks kicking ass as much as the next guy—probably more—but I need characters and a substantial story to go with it. I need to care. Sucker Punch is too much fantasy, too little reality. I’ll rewatch 300 and try to forget this one. It shouldn’t be very hard.
