Gia Skova in The Serpent (2020)

User reviews

The Serpent

140 reviews
2/10

Yes, written and directed by a fashion model.

The stars of the movie are Gia Skova's blonde hair, her breasts and her duck lips. Why do women still think that duck lips are attractive? Duck lips are funny looking. Gia has limited acting ability - her lines are rather cold. The dialogue is shallow and disjointed. Watch it for a good laugh about how bad a movie can be. I think this movie was about promoting Gia.

Really, really BAD movie

Very amateurish...

At least some beginner filmmakers start with some projects they can handle, and learn -- before attempting a longer ambitious project. This was a HUGE bite, very poorly executed, and the result is BAD.

There are more flaws in this thing than anything -- in writing, directing, editing, etc., etc.

I feel sorry for the actors -- for them, I gave this a 2 rating. In spite of the obviously poor direction, not all look as bad as the "star".

I see a lot of 10 "ratings" LOL!! They are obviously fake.

Poor acting in low budget action movie

I feel pity for those involved in this film

If I think a movie is really bad then like most I will write a scathing review. However this film is so bad I feel as if I would be criticizing people with mental disabilities or cognitive delay.

What I cannot understand is how someone in this day and age when every movie is out there for renting or viewing on Netflix etc. they cannot watch them to learn what to do and what not to do.

The dialogue seemed written by 8 to 10 year old kids that have watched every B movie out there and didn't even nail that. The pacing of the actors was terrible also. Lighting? Was there any thought given to that?

I understand budgets can influence the outcome of a movie but in this case no budget could have saved it. If I am writing this it is at least this film can serve as an example to future film makers on what NOT TO DO! Put quality in the script. Be realistic in the production based on what budget you have. Pick quality actors (and not yourself unless you are better than what you find). Lear lighting technique or hire someone that knows it well. It's an essential to film making. Then there is editing! Get an editor and colorist that knows what they are doing.

Yes these things cost money but this movie had more budget than most amateur films I've seen yet many of those surpassed this garbage because their story and intent was foremost.

It's extremely difficult to be the writer, actor, director and producer in any film for extremely talented and experienced film makers. As I said this film would be a waste of time other than it can fulfill a use by being a standard of the abysmal failure.

AWFUL from start to finish

What on earth have I just watched!!

The background music is constant and annoying - as well as being inappropriate for whatever happens to be on screen.

The continuity is all over the place - I don't think anyone thought about joining the pieces of this film together - and the editing is constant cut scenes - sometimes with characters moving to completely different positions from shot to shot.

The story is just ridiculous - as is the script/dialogue.

Then we come to the 'acting'. Oh my word - it is AWFUL. Wooden doesn't come close to describing how bad it is. The main character hardly changes expression - maybe it's because of the plastic surgery - and it seems as though her 'dialogue' had been dubbed in post-production

The stunts/action is just as stupid as the rest of the film.

This is one you REALLY shouldn't waste your time or money on.

I STOPPED WATCHING AFTER 15 MINUTES

The headline says it all. The only reason I'm continuing to type? It says my review is too short.

I Kept Thinking It Will Get Better, But...

When I read the info on this movie it sounded very interesting. I like movies with a strong female lead who can kick butt and was looking forward to watching it. But nothing could have prepared me for this mess! Honestly, I only kept watching to find out what the big mystery was! The poor lead had two expressions: her eyes got bigger and her lips pursed when she was shocked or upset. That was it! I thought it could have been so much better with a better script, director and lead actress. When I learned that the writer and director was Gia I saw what went wrong. The editing was also poor, but there is only so much a person can do with such a bad movie.

Overflowing rotten & odiferous garbage

What a complete waste of 20 minutes watching in order to make up my mind if I should continue wasting additional time watching this hideous thing. This trash is so bad...it's even worse than you can imagine.

It's SO easy to entertain me

I'm very easy to please with movies. Give me a woman who can fight and kill and a storyline that you can semi-follow and I'm happy. This movie had the first part with Gia Skova Lucinda as a tough as nails heroine. The storyline was really difficult to follow and extremely scattered. Lucinda is running from the law, then she is the law, a special ops chick, then she's suddenly in jail, and a minute later protecting a little girl who vanishes suddenly (other characters vanish too) and then she's tracking down a mad bomber. Just pick one of those elements and there's a storyline somewhere. This movie just had the same actors doing a bunch of unrelated stuff that was kind of coherent. I saw it for free and cooked while it played. So, nothing was lost. It's a shame. I'm so easy to please. One of my favorite movies was Elektra! I liked Uwe Boll's Bloodrayne movies! Even I'm saying this was bad.

Great film

Superbab fim.

I love the perfomance of Travis Aaron Wade and Nigel Voras, booth are great in the film, one as Lucinda Ally and the other as The main antagonist foe.

The production of Gia its topnotch among this two actors we have Akihiro kitamura, Alexandra Tebano and Richard E Grant, all the actors work as a compass for the movie.

One great point for Gia Skova choice., she have the right eye.

Also Gia steal the movie in her portrait of Lucinda, A CIA agent chase by her own agency, the fighting choreography it amazing.

We need more movie like that, and support new actors and production.

Long life to the serpent.

Impressive

I'll give them credit, they tried to make it work. People are generally harsh and expect a well polished Hollywood film but this isn't it. It has potential and it starts of slow but thankfully it picks up quickly. The ending was surprising and the editing felt a little rushed but the soundtrack and acting was great. This is one indie film i watched to the end and though I do understand where some of you are coming from it's just a entertaining film and nothing else. I'm giving this a 7 for entertainment value.

Worse movie of the Covid season

Editing...awful.

Story line....weak.

Acting....poor.

Plastic surgery:... painful to watch.

Stunt...none.

The best part...The End

Don't, just don't do it. And if you, please, rate it very low to make up for their buddies pumping up the rating.

Incredibly bad.

It looks like it was written, directed and produced by a bunch of grade school kids ( and not the bright ones!).

Cast and crew wrote the good reviews (even says so!)

Viewing audience wrote the accurate ones.

Gave up after 15 minutes as the actions of people was totally incomprehensible.

2 people shooting at point blank range and missing everything (professional trained law enforcement!)

Who funds these things, surely someone read the script?

Just worth watching to help show how very good the pro's are I think.

At least some people got some wages I guess lol.

The worst film I've ever seen?

Watched this on Sky and within 10 minutes was checking the smallprint to see if I could get my money back.

Terrible film on every level. Acting is totally inept and lead actress deserves recognition for a quite formidable lack of acting ability. Script is awful, continuity all over the place, pacing of the edit is simply spectacularly bad. Even the "dramatic" music is annoying and misplaced.

Congratulations on making the worst film I've ever seen - and I've watched some utter turkeys over the years!

Actions flms are the best.

"Actions films are the best"

Martin Scorsese

What its the perfect combination between girls, guns, chase scene, international conspirator and dangerous people.

The perfect combination its action movie called the serpent.

Plenty in action scenes, amazing dialogues and marvellous secondary characters this movie have the principal milestone in Gia Skova the lead action girl its the first pillar.

The story its typical as a political thriller, but have a twisted; include an international conspirator for destroy the world. Noticed the good chose as the main composer of the film.

The supporting cast are really good. Names like akimiro Hitamura, Alexandra Tebano, Nigel Voras and Travis Aaron Wade have presence in the film

The movie its for watch and rewatch several times because its amazing.

Waiting the next movie of Gia Skova.

Real talent

This film is way better then the trailer. The main lead Gia Skova is absolutely stunning and I could really watch her in every film she makes. I see so many mixed reviews but give it a chance and I'm pretty sure it weren't disappoint. Given the budget and time frame they for sure made one of the better indie action moves there to date.

95% liked this film? Don't fall for the false reviews!

I was hoodwinked like a lot of viewers by the false ratings. $5.99 wasted and 15 minutes of my life that I will never get back.

I told my SO that the actress was obviously someone's girlfriend. No, actually the actress is the screenwriter, producer and star of this epic disaster. A Russian model with a British voiceover, and one can only assume an army of rating bots at her disposal. Save your money and time!
