This giant monster movie is pitiful stuff indeed - even worse than the usual rubbish churned out to genre standards. When the film started with that dumb wrestling match, I just knew it was going to be poor, and throwing in pointless nudity and a few bloody scenes weren't going to make any difference in the end.The rubbishy story sees a giant python on the loose after escaping from captivity. The hero scientists decide to release an equally giant boa constrictor in order to battle the beast. Various people die in cheesy ways, and the monsters scrap a little via some terrible CGI effects. There's not a lot here, believe me.The narrative is padded endlessly with dumb characters and humour. Adamo Palladino's ultra-slick hunter character is repulsive in the extreme while the blonde bimbo scientist (Jaime Bergman) is harder to swallow than Denise Richards playing a similar type in THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH. The death scenes are bad, the action is silly, the effects horrible. Even for a seasoned fan of B-movie fare, this one is poor.

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.

To truly appreciate films like this, you just have to approach them at the right angle! The film is crap...yes. The CGI is laughable, the plot is none-existent and (aside from David Hewlett who makes the most of what he has) the acting is atrocious. But this film (along with other such gems as Charlies Angels: Full Throttle and...well...pretty much any film with Arnold Swachenegger or William Shatner in it), is just one of those SO EXCRUCIATINGLY AWFUL movies that go through the boundaries of crap into hysterically funny. I guarantee that if you watch this film with a few other guys or gals who are in the mood for it, you will find it as funny as I did.How can any film with these lines be bad?: "That snake is big. Big is good.", "God I hate you son." and "Guys like that, they get what they want. their own casinos, a hot biscuit like her, and now he's getting the first shot at killing our snake. F**ck that!" I rest my case.

I was looking forward to this movie, because I loved Python and thought Boa was okay. Unfortunately, these are two completely new snakes, and it has absolutely NOTHING to do with Boa (aka New Alcatraz), Python, or Python 2 (although that may be a good thing considering how much that one sucked). It does keep the spirit of Python 1 alive, being rather tongue-in-cheek and not taking itself too seriously like Python 2 did. Also, the cover is LIES. The snakes fight for about 10 minutes. There's plenty of other stuff happening, but when the movie is called Boa vs. Python you wanna see a Boa fighting a Python dangit! Still a fun movie, but don't expect the kind of action the cover promises.
