When a documentary crew traveling through the Amazon jungle, picks up a stranded man, they are unaware of the trouble that will occur. This stranger's hobby is to capture the giant Anaconda snake, and plans to continue targeting it on their boat, by any means necessary. A "National Geographic" film crew is taken hostage by an insane hunter, who takes them along on his quest to capture the world's largest - and deadliest - snake. One of the more watchable movies, i assume, in this genre, but perhaps only because it includes celebrities like Jennifer Lopez and Ice Cube…The plot? A bunch of people go into the Amazon jungle to make a documentary about a remote Indian tribe but soon get other things to think of. Movies like this always contain typical stereotype propaganda and this one may take the price in that department anyway. First it is Jon Voight who plays an ex-priest(!) turned snake-hunter and then the bimbo lady that is a must and her naive boyfriend. Then the European (in this case British) who is the typical dork who only seem to care about playing golf and listen to opera… One can figure out who is going to survive already from the start basically, the "coolest" people of course… The acting isn't a complete disaster according to me but nothing to write home about either. The plot in itself isn't that credible either, i doubt that a bunch like this would undertake to go on an adventure like the one they had in mind. The sceneries and the environment look rather good, although in one scene when they are done battling the snake the waterfall seem to run uphill….An unfortunate miss i'm sure. In conclusion, the characters are so stereotypical and surreal in some way that it just doesn't do it as a good movie even in this genre. If you have nothing else to do it could work as reasonable entertainment, and then just shake it off you, kind of. I think the movie makers figured that more people would watch it if it starred Jennifer Lopez and perhaps they thought right if so. This Movie The Snake Graphics Looked So Good! I Thought That The Snake Was Real! I Give It A 10/10! This Movie Was Great! I'll Give The Actors A Bravo! And The Computer Graphics People A Bravo Too! This Movie Was Awesome! So desperate and silly that here and there, it's a lot of fun.
