A viral sensation even before it finished filming, Snakes on a Plane was one of the first major Hollywood films shaped as much by internet buzz as by studio decisions. Stuntman-turned-director David R. Ellis (Final Destination 2) delivers a delirious, high-concept thriller that gleefully combines the disaster movie with over-the-top creature horror.
Samuel L. Jackson (Deep Blue Sea) stars as FBI agent Neville Flynn, escorting a key witness in the case against a ruthless crime boss on a commercial flight from Hawaii to Los Angeles. But at 30,000 feet, justice takes a backseat when the mobsters release a writhing cargo of venomous snakes into the cabin. With passengers dropping like flies and the cockpit compromised, Flynn and a group of terrified travelers are forced to fight for survival against nature’s deadliest stowaways.
Outrageous, shamelessly entertaining, and featuring one of the most quotable lines in film history, Snakes on a Plane is an instant cult classic that more than earns its reputation as one of Hollywood’s craziest action-disaster movies.
