Boston Globe
A movie called Snakes on a Plane had better be one of two things: So bad it's good or so good it's great. Darned if it isn't a little bit of both. - 75
New York Post
The film failed to be frightening, suspenseful or dramatic but accidentally succeeded in being absolutely hilarious. - 75
Baltimore Sun
Looming large over all this is Jackson, who glowers and growls and acts the hero better than any actor out there. - 70
The Hollywood Reporter
This is a coolly efficient, tongue-in-cheek horror-comedy. - 63
USA Today
Cheesy, campy B-movie fun, thanks mostly to the cadre of cobras and their ilk and also to Jackson (probably the only actor alive who could pull off this save-the-day bad ass movie role). - 63
ReelViews
To an extent, Snakes on a Plane reminds me of "Eight Legged Freaks." It has the same kind of off-the-wall, don't-take-it-seriously comedic horror sensibility. - 60
Film Threat
1. It has the potential to supplant "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" as the greatest audience participation movie of all time. 2. It is, simultaneously, one of the worst and best movies I’ve ever seen. - 58
Entertainment Weekly
More potent than anything in Snakes on a Plane is the fantasy offscreen: that if enough people talk up their desire to see this film and, at the same time, take an overt delight in what an unabashed piece of junk it is, they will fuse with the hype, with the movie's mystique. They will not just watch Snakes on a Plane; they will own it.
