Synopsis

After an overly ambitious businessman transports an 80-foot python to the United States, the beast escapes and starts to leave behind a trail of human victims. An FBI agent and a snake specialist come up with a plot to combat the creature by pitting it against a bioengineered, 70-foot boa constrictor. It's two great snakes that snake great together!

Jakub Kadera When I was 12 years old this movie was one of my favorite movies, but if I look at Boa vs. Python now, I say that it was stupid one. I like snakes a lot, but these snakes looks like reptiles from galaxy far, far away from us. Effects in movie was worse than in old PC games. Actors were good, but sometimes they were unbelievable stupid. My rating for this movie is 4 out of 10 because I can't go lower but neither higher. First star for snake-movie, second for funny moments and next two stars for last snake fight.P.S. If I will have commando what need to kill huge snake, I will call more than 5 members.
Richard Hawes Boa vs. Python is the kind of movie the term B-movie was invented for. Its title is absurdly evocative, low brow and basic. It's also obviously exploitative, cashing in on a trend for big snake movies and franchise crossovers. Made around the time of Freddy vs. Jason (2003) and Alien vs. Predator (2004) and Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid (2004).Bearing little connection to its predecessors, Boa (2001), Python (2000) and Python 2 (2002), Boa vs. Python is appropriately tongue-in-cheek and well made within its limitations. It's ambitious too, the casting, cinematography, editing and music imitate Michael Bay's blockbusters, but this is strictly in the tradition of the cheapest and simplest of monster movies.Despite the presence of a nerdy good guy scientist and a macho playboy, the instigator of the carnage, this is classically sexist filmmaking. The duo of scaly stars may be the selling point but two female stars are just as important to the movie. Displaying their charms to keep things interesting until it's time for the chaos to begin. Playboy playmate Jaime Bergman leads the cast in the role of intelligent but non-threatening blonde heroine, a marine biologist introduced wearing a bikini. While her opposite is a tattooed bad girl (Angel Boris). Both characters are lifted straight out of the James Bond formula and invite a good deal of attention from male onlookers both on screen and off. Of particular note is an extended nude scene, in which the villain's girlfriend takes a bath, then performs a full-frontal dialogue scene (carefully shot to avoid being overtly sleazy). Perhaps it's appropriate that a film about phallic figures objectify women so blatantly. Unfortunately the novelty of the sexy casting, flashy camera moves and militaristic score wears a little thin after a while. When the snake vs. snake set-pieces take centre stage things start to deflate just when they should be getting good. The computer generated "stars" are far too poorly rendered and too briefly seen, it becomes a touch tiresome and their all too brief final showdown leaves us disappointed. Although certain moments stand out, such as a risqué scene in which a young woman is orally pleasured by a giant snake.With its cast of beautiful people, bikini-clad extras, an emphasis on style over substance and a rock soundtrack - this is modern American genre filmmaking at its most formulaic. But when judged against films such as it's own predecessors, Boa vs. Python is to a certain extent a triumph. Exceeding expectations if even for a short while. It's certainly better than either Snakes on a Plane (2006) or Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus (2009).
saotome_x I know this isn't the movie u all expected, but I'm a really bad horror movie fan and i must say this is really cool, u cant see it expecting an Oscar awarded movie, its just to hang out with your friends and have a lot of fun watching it, the scene when the python gives oral sex to the girl in the car is the best scene ever, I laugh for hours with that scene.I think that if u are a lover of the crappy horror films this is one u cant miss. Its not as funny as Frankenfish but its pretty cool though.The actors sucks, but u must keep in mind that is a low budget crappy film.
smatysia What an incredibly bad movie. I won't rehash what recent commentators have said about the plot holes, but they are correct. The acting was quite spotty as well. The filmmakers obviously knew how bad this was, so at a lot of times they moved the controls toward camp. However, they weren't confident enough to make a truly campy film, which is not easy. Thus it is left with just execrable badness. The snakes looked really, really fake, too. They did not behave like snakes, either, but then, if they did, there would not be all that much to make a movie out of. This is an obvious aping of "Anaconda" which had its own problems. The absolutely only thing this film has going for it are Angel Boris' buns and boobies. If you're not looking for that, then run away screaming from this film.
