When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

This movie starts off with a cargo plane flying through a dangerous thunderstorm. Because of the turbulence a crate containing a very dangerous species of snake gets damaged which allows the snake to break out. Freed from its container it then proceeds to consume the occupants of the plane which then crashes in a remote part of the United States. From there on we learn that the snake is a hybrid created in Southeast Asia that has assimilated various abilities from other species and because of possible contamination by Agent Orange has grown to an enormous size and has an incredible destructive ability--and it has found a perfect venue for human flesh. Anyway, as far as the movie is concerned it had a good premise and contained a various amount of comedy, action and suspense. Unfortunately, none of these qualities were carried out to any great degree and in that regard I found the film to be somewhat unsuccessful. However, that's not to say that this movie has absolutely no entertainment value. It does to a limited degree. But it could have been much better. As such I rate it as slightly below average.

I'm going to be frank here: I just don't get movie science. What possible benefit can there be in trying to create a giant and indestructible killer snake that just for the heck of it can also spit acid? And even if there's a proper use for that sort of thing, would you really try to transport said snake by merely shoving it into a wooden box and putting it on a plane? Didn't anyone notice a tiny flaw in that plan? Anyway, this movie mostly consists of pseudo-clever tongue-in-cheek moments, which all in all is pretty lame. When the makers are in on the joke, making fun of horror movies just isn't that great anymore. Some scenes do manage to be entertaining though, like the decapitation scene and pretty much every bit that involves Robert Englund as the crazed professor. My absolute favorite sequence is the shower attack though, how the hell does that towel stay on? Also the death scenes are hilariously crummy, and the crummyness is so funny that it just has to be unintentional. I can't believe how much these actors suck at pretending they're being attacked, they're about as convincing as UFO footage. I liked parts of this movie, it was better than I expected it to be, but that just says I had very low expectations.

The considerable box office success of the deliciously cheesy "Anaconda" not surprisingly inspired a rash of derivative, yet still enjoyable low-budget direct-to-video cash-in copies. These rip-offs include the none too shabby "King Cobra," the exceptionally fine and intelligent "Komodo," and this snazzy little over-sized mutant killer snake outing. Once again your standard unscrupulously ambitious scientist (a neatly quirky and understated portrayal by the always excellent Robert Englund) has created one hell of a fast, deadly, impossible to destroy genetically enhanced people-gobbling monstrosity, a vicious python which escapes from its cage and goes on the expected mankind-noshing spree in a tiny podunk hamlet. It's up to cocky ramrod government agent Parker (sternly played by tight-lipped latenight cable fare topliner Casper Van Dien) to eradicate the bloodthirsty beast before things get to out of hand.Proficiently directed by Richard Clabaugh, with slick cinematography by Patrick Rousseau, an effectively spare and moody hum'n'shiver score by Daniel J. Nielsen, and across-the-board sturdy acting from a uniformly solid cast, "Python" transcends the hackneyed plot by virtue of its uncommonly sound execution alone. The bright script by Chris Neal, Paul J.M. Bogh, and Gary Hershberger has fun playing around with the standard fright film conventions, with the saucy lesbian variant on the inevitable have-sex-and-die libidinous couple cliché rating as an especially nifty touch. Better still, the unusually well-drawn and plausible characters are firmly grounded in a certain gritty everyday blue collar reality, the crummy CGI effects are amusingly tacky, and the picture commendably takes its time carefully setting up a spooky tone in the opening first act before cutting loose with an increasingly jolting series of lethal lizard attack scenes. Sexy Jenny McCarthy vamps it up delightfully as the shameless town tramp. A barely recognizable Will Wheaton contributes a likable turn as a scruffy slacker dude. Veteran character actor Ed Lauter has a nice unbilled bit part as an ill-fated army airplane pilot. Compact and smartly realized, "Python" sizes up as a pleasing and up-to-par creature feature.

Python certainly isn't art, and it's not gonna win any awards. However, it IS a fun little movie for a night with some soda (or, if you're old enough, beer) and popcorn. The snake changes size many times, (at one point it hides in a garage behind some boxes, but he is then suddenly 15X the length of a car.)and even the marketing is messed up-the cover says it's "sixty feet of pure terror", but the scientist in the movie says it's 128 feet long. The acting isn't the greatest and the CGI is terrible (the snake's "acid" looks like expired Jell-O), but the movie is a good one to watch and let your brain go on autopilot. For B-Movie fans, or people who thought Anaconda didn't have enough stupid jokes, this one is an absolute must-see.
