IM GOING TO NAME A COUPLE OF CHESSY PARTS IN THIS JUNKING MOVIE
OK.IF THERE WAS SNAKE HANGING FROM A PLANE HANGING ON TO A PERSON ON THE PLANE AND SOMEONE IS HOLDING ONTO THAT PERSON THEY WOULDNT BE ABLE TO HOLD IT. THE SNKAE LOOKS FAKE. THE SPECAIL EFFCTS SUCK. WHY DOES THE SNAKE HAVE A SHARP POINTY THING ON ITS TAIL. THE ACTING IS VERY BAD. IF U THOUGHT UR WIFE DIED U WOULD CRY WRITE. THEY SAY ITS 100 FEET BUT ITS LIKE 85 FEET. THEY MAKE THE SAME SOUND FOR BACKROUND NOISES EVERY TIME IF U LISETN CLOSEY. HOW COULD A PLANE FLY THROUGH THE ANARTIC. THERE WOULD BE SMOKE(STEAM)(COLD AIR) COMING OUT OF THERE MOUTHES CUZ IT WOULD BE SO COLD. CORNY. CHESSEY. CRAPPY. JUNKY. VERY BAD MOVIE OF A SNAKE.

A snake in the snow? Cool!, July 16 2004
This is the first time I have ever written a review here, so I will try to make it as clean and clear as possible.
I personally think that Boa is a good action thriller with some horror themes. It is about a large multi-national prison 20 kilometers north of the South Pole, built to house at least 25,000 prisoners! The people at the prison are drilling deep down into the ice and snow when they drill through a rock chamber containing nitrogen gas and, more importantly, a 100-foot long pre-historic boa constrictor.
The snake is still alive after 65 billion years because the nitrogen gas in the rock chamber stopped the beast's aging process completely. When the snake is released, it begins to kill devour people in the prison. I should note that the snake uses some very skillful methods in killing its victims. For example, not only does it constrict and bite its prey to death, it also has a sharp, deadly blade on its tail which it uses to stab and hack its victims to death. As you can see, not only is the snake deadly, but it is also very smart!
What I liked about this movie is the concept of a snake living in the snow. It is very a unique concept and I just think that it is so cool!
I don't know much about Dean Cain, but he did a really great job in this movie. His acting really shows us what its like in a cold, snowy world where you're being hunted by a giant snake.
Overall, I really enjoyed this movie. I'm thinking about buying it soon! I first saw it on the Sci Fi channel and I was inspired to think about buying it. If you like a giant snake in the snow, get this movie!
I hope this review was helpful to you. The trick to this movie is to just watch it yourself and see what you think. Don't just listen to what other people say about it.
