snakes on a plane < TRON: LEGACY

Due to unforeseen circumstances, i've been falling behind on the reviews, so here's two days ago and yesterday's movies.

Snakes On A Plane, starring Samuel L. Jackson (Pulp Fiction), Kenan Thompson (All That!) and David Koechner (Anchorman). Ok, it didn't star these people, but they are the only ones worth paying attention to. Them and the snakes, who quite possibly did the best job in this movie. Clearly, this movie was made for the sole purpose of Samuel L. to scream "I'm tired of these mother fucking snakes on this mother fucking plane."

Snakes on a plane came out over 4 years ago now, so most people have probably seen it, and if you haven't. I honestly suggest skipping it. The same is not true for yesterday's movie: TRON: LEGACY.




Having seen the original TRON about a year ago, I had a small idea of what to expect when I went in and put on my 3D glasses for TRON: LEGACY. Either way, it was insane. It was intense and overall awesome.

The story is of Flynn who is the creator of a computer world, think of the Matrix, or Second Life, or WoW. One day in this computer world, which is loosely called "The Grid", Flynn locks himself in. The story then follows his son, who mistakenly sends himself through the portal to "the grid". There he encounters many "next level stuff".

Jeff Bridges was his usually dude self in his role of Flynn and played a great antagonist, named Clue (who's a younger clone version of Flynn). If your still following, great, if not, it's okay, I don't wish to give away anymore anyway.

See TRON: LEGACY and see it in 3D, or even IMAX if you can. I would see this again even today in an IMAX theater. The visuals were exceptional, the music was dynamite and the story (although rushed) was touching.
