[quote name='GrimNecroWizard']Yeah, but the movie is retarded, it's probably one of the dumbest movies ever. Without the hilarious deaths and the crowd saying stuff and Samuel L Jackson, it would be terrible. The theater is the best place to see it, I wouldn't wanna watch a B movie by myself at home. Too bad my theater had about 10 people in it after this one little girl and her mom left during the scene with the dog...[/QUOTE]
well in that case, if the movie NEEDS the crowd to carry it til the end and it would suck just watching it in a small crowd or alone, then it must suck.
Maybe thats why the press couldn't screen it first, because the makers knew the press would tear it up.

It's not a dumb movie though, it's actually quite brilliant. It's a glorification of all the wonderful things American movies, and at the same time it's a completely brutal criticism of everything wrong with them.
More than anything, the movie is at is best what movie making should be: unabashed joy, completely pure and unfiltered magic. If one movie can truthfully show the "power of film", then it is Snakes on a Plane
The audience laughng collectively, the cheering, the clapping, the absolute energy in the theatre is something you don't usually feel at a pre-recorded event.
So I kind of take offense to it, personally [and I am not joking] I do think it is the best movie I've seen all year, and I haven't enjoyed a movie this much in quite a while. The movie has more depth to it then people give it credit for, this movie just took an idea, ran for it, and ended up winning the whole
ing race.

But the press didn't tear it up, it's 62% at Rotten Tomatoes, that means more than half the press loved it, and quite honestly, all the bad reviews come from completely unreliable sources. Roeper is a snob, Slant and Salon.com magazine won't give a movie a good score unless it's about homosexuals coming to terms with their identies while helping a single soccer mom fight cancer, Rolling Stone are a bunch of posers, and who the cares what The Onion thinks??
Every critic with a mind of his/her own, every person with an actual love for movies, and anyone who knows how to enjoy a good work of fiction will love Snakes on a Plane.
