snakes on a plane (2006)

Sean Jones, an extreme sports fan in Hawaii for the surf, witnesses a brutal murder by a gangland leader and is persuaded to testify in court against him. In order to do so he's put on a plane to Los Angeles, with an FBI agent (Samuel L Jackson). However, hundreds of poisonous snakes are also on the flight and they are no mood to stay put. Thus starts a struggle for survival, man vs snake.
Well this film definitely does what it says on the poster. I was fully prepared to not like this, but I don't know if its just my lowered expectations, but it was ok and entertained me for the 90 minutes, as there isn't much chance to catch breath as wave upon wave of snakes attack. Its never going to win any awards, but its OK if you like dumb-ass action films.
