The Film Vaults #5 - Snakes on a Plane (2006)

Considering I ofter sport a Snake on a Plane t-shirt, it was inevitable at some point it would be my choice in "The Film Vaults"...
Easily one of the greatest blockbuster films of the last 10 years, Snakes on a Plane does exactly what it says on the tin, and while it had received many negative reviews, it has easily become a cult classic, because lets face it, what's not to like - it's got Samuel L. Jackson, one half of Kenan and Kel, hundreds of Snakes, and an airplane. Put that all together and you've got a film that everyone should see...
Now its not the type of film that was likely to win any awards and it didn't, but its still a great film that you can watch over and over and still realise how awesome it is -  a bit like Die Hard but with Snakes and a Plane, rather than Alan Rickman in Nakatomi Towers...
However, whatever you do don't watch Snakes on a Train expecting it to be similar, because its not - its awful and is no way connected to the brialliance that is Snakes on a Plane...
