Customer Reviews of Boa
What can you expect from a snake movie? I rented this DVD with low expectations. I wasn't expecting an ingenious, Oscar-worthy film... I was expecting to see some so-so actors get eaten by a huge snake. I got what I was expecting.
Boa takes itself too seriously at times and expands on the "New Alcatraz" plotline too much. It's funny at times, even though it's not supposed to be. I cheered when one particularly annoying criminal was killed. However, I was shocked that so many characters died. I thought more people would survive than how many actually did.
If you're fan of B-horror movies, then you might enjoy Boa. If you're a fan of Dean Cain, then you might like Boa. But if you're like me and you just want to see people get eaten by a giant snake, then you will probably like Boa.
A snake in the snow? Cool!
This is the first time I have ever written a review here, so I will try to make it as clean and clear as possible.
I personally think that Boa is a good action thriller with some horror themes. It is about a large multi-national prison 20 kilometers north of the South Pole, built to house at least 25,000 prisoners! The people at the prison are drilling deep down into the ice and snow when they drill through a rock chamber containing nitrogen gas and, more importantly, a 100-foot long pre-historic boa constrictor.
The snake is still alive after 65 billion years because the nitrogen gas in the rock chamber stopped the beast's aging process completely. When the snake is released, it begins to kill devour people in the prison. I should note that the snake uses some very skillful methods in killing its victims. For example, not only does it constrict and bite its prey to death, it also has a sharp, deadly blade on its tail which it uses to stab and hack its victims to death. As you can see, not only is the snake deadly, but it is also very smart!
What I liked about this movie is the concept of a snake living in the snow. It is very a unique concept and I just think that it is so cool!
I don't know much about Dean Cain, but he did a really great job in this movie. His acting really shows us what its like in a cold, snowy world where you're being hunted by a giant snake.
Overall, I really enjoyed this movie. I'm thinking about buying it soon! I first saw it on the Sci Fi channel and I was inspired to think about buying it. If you like a giant snake in the snow, get this movie!
I hope this review was helpful to you. The trick to this movie is to just watch it yourself and see what you think. Don't just listen to what other people say about it.
The big Squeeze
I saw the made for television version of this on Scifi Channel. I thought it was a great move better than King Cobra and a lot better than Anadconda. A giant snake get loose in a prision facility in Alaska and begins kill the inimate. Scientis are flown in to help them elimate the menace.
Why not as big as the snake form python it is equaly strong and fierece. Cheesy parts at the end when the Plan take of the boa Is wraped around it. Saw it as a cheesy react mean of Sterling Horr from 20 thousand feet
