Boa vs. Python (2004 Video)
3/10
Very poor attempt at a B-movie
31 July 2013
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.
