Snakes on a Plane could have been a hit or miss. The reason, I believe, it was such a hit, was not the quality of the movie, or its actors. It was simply that they made it outrageous, ridiculous, unbelievable, and most of all, FUN!! They didn\’t shy away from making fools of themselves. They took a gamble and in my opinion, it worked.

Hollywood takes itself way too seriously and in doing so, takes a lot of fun out of the entire experience. I\’m not say all of it, The Grand Budapest Hotel is a brilliant movie. They just need to take a risk occasionally and not be so afraid of failing. Let\’s face it, what have they to lose, they already are?!
As they say in Face/Off… Fresh Tactics!

The whole premise and the title were awesome, it just had no sense of humor or fun. I think this was the post-Dark Knight era of blockbuster filmmakers trying their hand at being Nolan-serious and failing at it.

It took itself way too seriously.

The title didn\’t even bother me \’cuz I always thought it was kinda tongue-in-cheek. The final product, however, was awful.

The movie wasn\’t very good, but that scene of barely visible UFOs attacking the Old west town is pretty great.
