Terrible movie.

This movie is really, really bad. It features bad acting, bad CG, bad plot and other things you don't want to see in a movie.

The plot, as mentioned, is really awful. Some rich guy wants to have a big snake brought out in the woods so he and his rich buddies can kill it for fun. It breaks free and starts killing people. The good guys sends out another big snake to fight the bad snake.

OK, they didn't have a big budget so the CGI-snakes look bad, but could'nt they have written a better story?

The acting is terrible, the actors are completely worthless.

The action scenes are not exiting in any way.

Don't waste your time watching this movie, its not worth it. They even used the old trick "make girl show her jugs" to make the movie more interesting, and thats a good sign for a sucky movie.

Nice tits though.

best b-grade ever (next to "frankenfish")

The credits say it all...3 secs in and you know it's gonna be B-Grade-Orama!

There are a few things that must be in a film for it to be B-Grade and Boa VS Python has em all!!!!

1 ) Unnessesary nudity (cause low paid actors will do anything to get a gig). Not only do we get to see the naked chick bathe but she also rubs herself down with a sponge really really slowly!

2 ) The group of mis-matched characters that would never be seen together ever but somehow manage to end up stuck in impossible situations. In this movie we have a safari hunting team that more closely resembles the Village Ppl!

3 ) Sex Scene. Boy goes down on girl, snake eats boy, snake goes down on girl.......oh yeah!

4 ) Clichés. i like the dumb ass deputy tripping into the bloody corpse head-first in front of the over-dramatic FBI agent.

5 ) super cool special effects*

6 ) bad plot (wild snake free in city, so lets send a bred-in-captivity snake with a camera on its head to catch it)

7 ) worse script ("should i tag this as body #6?" "i think it's the rest of bodies 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5")

8 ) and even worse actors.

i loved it! b-grade value of 4/5

PS...get a load of the DVD cover (there is no chopper in the movie at all so don't get your hopes up with the chopper shooting two missiles at a couple of giant snakes in the middle of the city.....which is not where the movie is set)

At least it tried...

Geez... We can't say that it didn't try. "Boa V.S. Python" tried too hard to be a decent B-flick. It tried to rely most of it's fun factor on a monster, on cheesy dialogs, on not so bad f/x, and on cool soundtrack. Not to mention the visual attractive of sensual hot women with a sexy accent.

Overall, it's not a bad movie because it has some good technical values to respect unlike many crappy B-flicks under the same tone.

I had fun watching it after the first half of the movie. Sometimes it got dull and boring but it was just a premise before the B-Action started!

Watch this one if you are hungry of B-flicks!!

It's scary... that this got made.

I'd like to think that someone got fired over this movie. The really amazing thing about Boa vs. Python is that it got made at all. Then, after it got made, it aired on the Sci-Fi Channel. Now, we all know that the Sci-Fi Channel is not exactly known for excellence in programming, but this is an all time low.

The fact that someone pitched Boa vs. Python as a concept, and someone else said, "Yeah! Great!" is just plain frightening. I almost can't blame the writer, the director, the actors, or the terrible CGFX team. They did what they had to do. The worst thing about Boa vs. Python is that it came into existence at all. 2 out of 10 stars. One for the python, one for the boa.

Lifeless and incoherent

This movie is everything you would expect it to be: a complete and utter piece of crap. No resemblance except the special effects style with the previous film, BOA, which was a pretty good film. This has to do with a rich stud who arranges big game hunts for rich losers, only his big game – a giant reticulated python – gets lost in the wilds outside Philadelphia and the FBI decides to borrow some scientist's giant boa to capture it. The plot gets even sillier after that. The effects are cheesy – low budget CGI although the camera work and editing is very good. Characters are mindless and moronic – most of them created just for former playmates to show off their toots&assetts at the expense of a relevant or interesting storyline. That said, however, I must confess that crimson-haired co-star Angel Boris was intoxicatingly attractive in all of her scenes. But the storyline is the movie's biggest fault – there's no attempt to even be logical or literate, and even the suggestion that the movie is half comedy doesn't excuse the story's lapses in intelligence.

Hasn't the CGI giant snake/monster thing gone far enough?

I rented this flick while in the mood for some pretty cheesy schlock to continue my search for the worst movie ever made (this is a personal quest because no three people can agree on what is the worst movie ever). This flick combines two CGI giant snakes that previously had their own pieces of celluloid, but it isn't a sequel to either franchise. Some schmucks decided that they wanted to hunt a giant python that turned out to be a renegade human killer (big surprise). It escaped and started hiding out in a water treatment plant (another big surprise). So the government gets a woman who is working with transplants that can transmit animal brain waves and a guy with a giant boa (Houston, we have a title). So they sent this boa after the python (great idea, put two blood thirsty giant snakes in a confined area together). Throw in some special forces, idiot hunters going after the snake and you've got a movie.

This was pretty crappy. Forget it unless you love the giant CGI snake thing.

Well shifty

My mate got me this DVD for my 22nd birthday today. We saw the preview on the internet and it has been legendary since. Now I've actually seen the film, I'm happy all the time. Seriously. My parents got me an awesome and fantastic and expensive watch, but when people go "So what did you get?" I'm going to scream "Boa VS Python!!!" at them, and staple them to the living room couch and force them to watch this film a la Clockwork Orange. Only then will humanity truly find peace. How can people not like this film? The dubbing is perfect, the script is unparallelled, and Adam Kendrick's portrayal of a British casino owner-cum-big game hunter is spot on. He even got the flame-thrower action just right! I know a lot of casino owners-cum-big game hunters who have seen this film, and they all say he got it. This whole film is like they took a documentary about a crappy worm and got Ice Cube to pimp it. "Pimp my Worm Documentary!" they cried. And they did. Ooh, one little thing...I was well expecting an angry black guy to be part of some kind of SWAT team...oh wait, they got him in there too. Top stuff.

A fun cheap snake movie

The crossover of 2 little known Sci Fi Channel movies is a smoke not unlike the B-movies. The plot is interesting, but there are some things out of context like a poorly edited scene of the boa infiltrating the tunnel or the boa attacking to the soldiers who were in charge of escorting her, although when she discovered that she later laid a nest, she obviously became defensive or even when the python is heard belching after eating someone as if this were a cartoon. The digital effects are very obvious, since this is a B-series product with no realism. Unfortunately, the final confrontation between the two reptiles was too short when it could have given the film a more powerful ending. The production and performances are more acceptable. Result, a regular or mediocre movie that if it doesn't cause tension, can at least amuse the viewer a little. My rating for this movie is 7/10.

The Battle continues this Sunday Sunday Sunday!!

In yet another 'versus' movie, Hollywood chooses a match-up that is not unlike the others that we have seen in the cinema lately. This time it is between two species of the snake world, boas and pythons.

An enormous python escapes from a truck delivering it to be hunted and captured for money. After terrorizing the sewers of Philadelphia, the FBI enlists the aid of two fellow scientists to remedy the situation. One has been harboring an enormous boa for years, while the other one has beautiful 'implants'. Together they work to bring this slithering beast of evil down.

Little do they know they are not the only ones hot on the trail. A big game animal hunter named Roddick has recruited some of the best hunters in the world to bring this beast down. The battle royale begins as the lines between man vs. nature, man vs. machine, and man vs. man are blurred and new boundaries are set. Who will reign supreme? Find out this Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!!

Impressive graphics and an excellent balance between action and gore are what keep this film afloat. This straight to DVD release should have most people laughing, but oddly kept my attention until the very end. The story is flawed, the characters are unbelievable, and the script is amateurish (see constant remarks about 'implants' and Monica), but there is something to be said about using good CGI. This is no LOTR, but for a straight to DVD release I was impressed. Director David Flores has done an exceptional job of giving us exactly what we came looking for with this film. We wanted action, some nudity, and tons of snakes, and he successfully handed them to us on a silver platter. If you do not walk into this film with high expectations, you will probably leave impressed.

Grade: ** ½ out of ****

so bad that it's unmissable!

probably the worst movie i have ever seen in my entire life. it was so bad that i couldn't stop watching, because i couldn't believe it could get worse (it did!). if ever there's an Oscar for the worst movie ever made, this is a definite nominee. a must see!

the story sucks, the acting sucks, the directing sucks, the camera-work sucks, the effects suck, the snakes suck, the action sucks, everything sucks.

it's absolutely unbelievable that someone, somewhere could actually regard this as some kind of art. it has about as much artistic merit as a dog turd drying in the sun.

What the Hell Was That S***!?!?

This is such a terrible movie. Everything from the script, acting, common sense, and desperate attempts to attract male viewets by having the naked woman trample around for like 10 minutes.

The effects in this movie are so bad you can't even laugh at them. It's all very low budget CGI that looks like it was created by students in highschool.

Don't even get me started on the common sense factor. The writters have really lacked to implement any logical decision making into the characters/actors. This movie will make you want to roll your eyes numerous times. The stupidity is immense.

I literally can't say anything about the ending. The torture was too great watching this junk. I made it an hour in and surrendered.

This was a very terrible movie. It's even worse than those sharknado movies, and that's saying something.

Don't waste your time. 2/10

Crap, with moments of crap, and then prolonged intervals of crap.

Saw this crap movie on the crappy Sci-Fi channel. The crap begins at 0.01seconds into the crap film and continues until the final crap frame. The crap producers would like you to believe that this crap is entertaining. It's not. It's crap. To summarize, Crap, with moments of crap, and then prolonged intervals of crap. Now because this comment does not contain enough lines to meet IMDb's specifications, I will ramble incoherently about the qualities of ducks.

Ducks are our friends. They are fun to watch and will eat any old scraps of bread you have lying around the house. Some people don't like ducks because they produce inordinate amounts of crap for their size. Well if you wanna see huge amounts of crap, watch Boa vs Python.

On a positive note, no ducks were harmed during the filming of this crap movie.

A Cross Between "Python" and "New Alcatraz"

In his pursuit of living dangerously, a wealthy casino owner by the name of "Braddick" (Adam Kendrick) has managed to acquire an 80-foot python and plans to bring it into the United States so that he and a few other self-absorbed hunters can track it down and kill it. Unfortunately, an unexpected event occurs along the way which results in the python escaping its cage and getting loose close to a water treatment facility in Pennsylvania. Being somewhat hungry, it immediately feeds on a few of the workers there, which in turn gets the attention of the FBI. Not wanting to damage the precarious water supply of that particular region of the country, the FBI agent-in-charge, "Agent Sharpe" (Kirk B.R. Woller) contacts a local herpetologist by the name of "Dr. Emmett" (David Hewlett) along with a marine biologist named "Monica Bonds" (Jaime Bergman). It is then disclosed that Dr. Emmett has a 70-foot boa constrictor which he has scientifically bred in captivity while Ms. Bonds possesses a state-of-the-art surveillance apparatus that she has used on dolphins. The plan they come up with is to put the surveillance equipment on the boa constrictor and somehow lure it towards the python and hopefully kill it. What they don't count on is the presence of the big-game hunters. On that note, neither do the big-game hunters count on a 70-foot boa constrictor in addition to their intended target. In any case, rather than reveal any more I will just say that, even though I had hoped it would be worth viewing, I honestly didn't expect too much from this particular movie. For starters, neither "Python" nor "Python II" were really that good. Not bad necessarily--but not that good either. Likewise, the film featuring the first gigantic boa constrictor ("New Alcatraz") was even worse. That said, combining the two elements of these films didn't seem to be all that appealing. In retrospect, while I wouldn't say that this movie was a complete disaster, it still wasn't quite as good as it could have been either. The action scenes lacked zest and the general story seemed to plod along at a very slow pace as well. In short, if a person enjoyed any of the previous films in this hybrid series then it might be worth a watch. For what it's worth, I didn't see anything special or out-of-the-ordinary with this movie and I rate it as slightly below average.

Extremely Cheesy, Crappy B-movie

While I was staying at my cousins house in the UK, his dad (my uncle) had Apple TV at the time and this "movie" was on the list of movies to rent.

We watched the trailer and thought it would be a real good laugh so we rented it.

And I have to say I have never wasted money on anything so bad in my entire life!

It was:

1) So cheesy it was unbelievable 2) The script... awful 3) Special effects were like special effects from the 1940's 4) Incredibly boring, (the entertainment 'tag' on Apple TV was SO misleading)

Hilarious B Movie Fun

To truly appreciate films like this, you just have to approach them at the right angle! The film is crap...yes. The CGI is laughable, the plot is none-existent and (aside from David Hewlett who makes the most of what he has) the acting is atrocious. But this film (along with other such gems as Charlies Angels: Full Throttle and...well...pretty much any film with Arnold Swachenegger or William Shatner in it), is just one of those SO EXCRUCIATINGLY AWFUL movies that go through the boundaries of crap into hysterically funny. I guarantee that if you watch this film with a few other guys or gals who are in the mood for it, you will find it as funny as I did.

How can any film with these lines be bad?: "That snake is big. Big is good.", "God I hate you son." and "Guys like that, they get what they want. their own casinos, a hot biscuit like her, and now he's getting the first shot at killing our snake. F**ck that!" I rest my case.

You have to understand...

You have to understand with these kinds of movies (boa vs. python,frankenfish, sasquatch hunters, rottweiler, tower of blood), you are not going to like it. You are going to think it was soo bad it was hilarious. Most importantly you cannot take it seriously as a movie. You have to also watch it with friends so you can all yell and say how stupid something was, or call something that is about to happen. I have seen about 8 movies like this one and I did not like one, but I had an amusing time watching it. WARNING: If you are looking for a scary movie or an interesting suspenseful movie DO NOT WATCH THIS! If you are on the other hand seeing something with friends, and you cant find a good comedy watch one of these. If you pick this movie out because you thought it would be cool, you should have been eliminated from the gene pool years ago. My personal favorite out of these 5 is sasquatch hunters, it was beyond helpless.

Two types of movies

It would be nice to have two different sets of voting standards for movies. One set for the well made movies with money and one set for the "B" movies. Most of the time I enjoy B movies, because I understand up front how they were made and I don't expect a lot of "movie magic" from the movie, but just a simple movie.

I would have given this a better rating under the B movie rating scale, because it wasn't a bad B move. Once you go into the movie with the B movie mind set you know how to place your expectations.

This movie falls in line with the Anaconda movies and the Boa movies. This movie actually has a plot and the acting isn't bad (B movie wise.) The special effects are pretty good in context.

Would I go and pay to see the movie, no, but it fits in well with the SciFi channels Saturday afternoon line-up.

Set yourself up for a B movie and enjoy the show!
