I just read every review on this site because my first review (which I posted) was CMonster's verbatim. So I went through them all and didn't come across a single Sir Mix-A-Lot reference. My joy at this revelation quickly dissolved into recognition that actual joy stemming from the opportunity to drop this reference myself is life-reevaluatingly depressing. I no longer want none, hun. Ugh. As an aside: what is the "L" that Foobekah is referencing?

You ever think that in some sort of parallel universe there would be a "Columbia Pictures" theme park? Where there would be an "Anaconda: The Ride"? Like where a tape of Ice Cube rapping about snakes plays on a loop, while people wait in line to get on a ride, where a giant animatronic Jon Voight would jump out of the water and scare tourists with his ridiculous accent? Then there would be a souvenir photo-op spot next to a statue of an anaconda/J-Lo's ass...Like, I'd buy a ticket for that.

I don't even want to talk about the crazy casting (OWEN WILSON??), the absence of one of the principal players throughout the movie, the dumb animal sounds the snake makes, the amazing POV snake-swallowing-shot, the dumb "story" and the fact that I don't understand how J-Lo ever became A Thing. No, this is all about the career defining work Jon Voight does here. He simultaneously channels about 5 characters with different nationalities and/or mental problems and it is GLORIOUS(ly bad). Respect.

Anaconda knows what it is, but what it is isn't remotely good. It's a deliberate throwback to old fashioned creature features like the ones that inspired Jaws, and its tongue is firmly planted in cheek ala Piranha, yet one can't help but wonder what a more skilled director than Llosa would have done with such admittedly bad material. The dialogue is terrible, and Llosa relies too heavily on jump scares, but Voight's hammy performance is a pure delight as he chews scenery with complete relish.

One of those movies that causes one to wonder about the decision-making process used by film producers when deciding what films to make. But then one realises there's no reason to presume the film didn't make money (it has sequels, after all). Which then causes one to wonder about the decision-making process used by filmgoers, when they're deciding what films to see.

These things, I choose to believe: that they had the snake sound like a scared piglet as a shout-out to "Razorback"; that someone told Jon Voight it was a remake of "Fitzcarraldo"; and that Jennifer Lopez survived because her acting is bad enough to repel reptiles. Yea, upon these articles of faith, I shall build my church.

I feel like there should be a different scale to rate 'Anaconda' on. Number of shots from the inside of a snake while Jon Voight is being eaten, for instance, or number of dopey snake puppets that look like Kermit the Frog. Speaking of Jon Voight, what accent was he attempting there? Paraguay by way of Brooklyn? Christopher Walken playing Che Guevara? Docking some points for the lack of an Ice Cube rap summarising the events of the film.

John Voight is just plain nasty in this film and very good at it, which is fun to watch. The fact that I get to watch several actors I'm not fond of get eaten entertains me almost enough to forgive them the screaming snakes (which at least do look like anacondas!).

It wants so desperately to be Jurassic Park, or Jaws, but instead it ends up being more like Jaws 4. That being said, it's not totally without merit..... Well, it may be without merit, but it's not without a bit of entertainment thrown in with the awful CGI. In the ignoble history of movies about giant animals killing people one by one, this is probably above average.

Voight's accent lands between Brando and Wiseau and that's the best part of the movie. We've seen sharks, piranha, snakes, gators, what I wanna know is where's the monster hippo movie? It feels like there's some Big Hippo lobby out there maintaining Okja PR while other deadly animals are further vilified by being put in planes and tornadoes and shit.

The best snake film ever made. I watched the second film first, and it sucked so much. So I got this one, and it was quite good. Jon Voight's acting was quite good, his character was supposed to be comedic. Dunno why people said he sucked. The snakes looked realistic 'cos they were animatronic. The death scenes were quite good. Please avoid the second film.

This is grossly miscast (which is part of the fun), but also far more competent than I was expecting. The effects aren't good per say, but they're an admirable attempt to merge practical FX with CGI and occasionally look decent. More often than not it's just hilarious. Honestly, probably the biggest disappointment (and surprise) is how many opportunities Owen Wilson had to say "wow" and declined.

The snakes look good, you can tell who each character is, the rainforest is wonderfully shot, and Jon Voight alone makes the trip worthwhile. It's just never really all that scary or even thrilling. It has a few moments, but works much the same as Alien: There is a thing out there that will eventually kill everyone, and you're just here along for the ride.

Old fashioned, unironic "creature feature" feels a little sanitised in terms of its gore (a more full-throttle horror version would work even better), but as it is it's good fun and sold by the cast's sincere and direct performances; Voight is also a good reminder of what an invaluably odd presence he was back in the 90s. Well staged and well-crafted by Llosa, who keeps things simple and straightforward while also successfully delivering the shocks. A minor triumph.

Generally fun if thoroughly formulaic throwback to the monster movies of yore. The cast members are polished off one by one, in a fairly predictable pecking order, by the peckish snake. South American scenery specialist Llosa yields the max from his authentic locales, to say nothing of Lopez's supremely photogenic bod. In the thespian department, the snake finishes a close second to Voight, who turns in at once menacing and witty work as a dangerous Paraguayan "river rat".
