Decent jump flick, but hardly deserves the rating it's getting here First let me say, Samuel S Jackson is awesome in just about any film he's in, including this one. Secondly, this is a good film, for what it is, a jump scare, snake movie. It is far better than any other snake movie I've seen. However, i can hardly see it deserving the rating it is receiving here. I mean, 10's are perfect to nearly perfect films. How can anyone justify giving this movie the same 10 of 10 that one would give The Godfather, or Lord of the Rings. Of course, there will always be those who truly feel a film deserves a 10, and to each there own. But I believe the only reason this has a cumulative score of 8+, after 14,000 votes, is because the mainstream moviegoer won't ever go see a film about snakes, much less one with this title. If they don't go, they don't vote. This in turn leaves the voting to be done only by the fans of this type of film. Again, good film for what it is, but there is no way it deserves this rating.
