    • Trivia
      (At around forty-four minutes) When the male flight attendant puts the snake in the microwave, he can be seen hitting the "snake" preset button on that microwave, a somewhat unusual preset for a microwave.
    • Goofs
      (at around 1h 27 mins) Flynn tells the passengers to hold their breaths before he shoots the windows, thereby depressurizing the interior of the plane. In reality, if a person holds their breath during depressurization, a 'lung over-expansion injury' can occur. This is why scuba divers are taught "Never hold your breath".
    • Quotes

      Neville Flynn: Enough is *enough*!

      [the terrified passengers on the plane turn to Neville]

      Neville Flynn: I have *had* it with these motherfucking *snakes* on this motherfucking *plane*! Everybody strap in!

      [draws his handgun]

      Neville Flynn: I'm about to open some fuckin' windows.

    • Crazy credits
      Before the credits, there is a quick flash of a open-mouthed snake ready to bite the camera. During the credits, Cobra Starship's "Snakes on a Plane (Bring It!)" music video plays.
    • Alternate versions
      The DVD contains some deleted scenes:
      • A scene where Mercedes talks to the newlywed couple in the airport.
      • The scene where Eddie Kim fights his opponent is prolonged.
      • A scene where you see all the passengers board the plane.
      • The dialog between Three Gs and Mercedes is prolonged.
      • More dialogs in the first meeting between Agent Flynn and Claire.
      • The attack on Mrs. Bova is prolonged.
      • A scene where Three Gs and Mercedes talk about a music video.
      • The newlywed woman complains that she never will have children.
      • A short scene between the newlyweds when they prepare to crash.
      • More dialog in the final scene between Flynn and Claire.

    Amusing title, Everyday movie, Suspicious voting behaviour
    What can I say? I'm a secret fan of 'over the top' action and horror films. Especially when it comes with a lot of lots of humour and innuendo, but I'm not a fan of Snake on a Plane.

    There are three potential draws to this film: • The comedy of the situation; • The horror; and • The novelty of hundreds of snakes being of a plane.

    Firstly, this film isn't written as a tongue-in-cheek horror or a comedy, and there are only 1 or 2 points in the film where you'll smile to yourself. If you want to get the feel of the film, the trailer genuinely represents the movie, a horror.

    Secondly, if you're expecting a film full of action and shocks, you won't be disappointed. It doesn't stand out above other movies, but it always keeps your attention.

    Thirdly, Although the novelty of Snakes of a Plane doesn't wear off, but you'll leave the cinema thinking "what was all the fuss about".

    I know this movie has a high rating, but it doesn't add up. A) Many of the reviews where written before the film was released and, B) The breakdown of user ratings has a lot less variation than normal 77% of people rating the movie 10/10, with only 7% of people giving it 9/10 - Why such an enormous gap?
