Spiders on a Plane

Ignore the 10 star reviews. It's a classic C grade I was fooled into thinking was a hidden monster gem by these reviews...

It's poorly acted and poorly written. It's horrible to look at and worse to listen to...

If you like trashy movies this is fun (I got a good laugh)...

But it is NOT a good movie...

There are moments of so bad it's good that redeem it enough to be worthy of 3 stars... but even that is a stretch...

You can tell the cast did the best they could with what they had...

But in particular the randomness of events alone blows out any form of comprehension and makes for a confusing ride.

3/10 at a push.

Corrine, gracie and beth are going away on a flight, but are unaware that spiders in the cargo hull are being released. The cgi is very laughable but I do feel it might be their intention with this movie. But the thing is I really liked the story to this. A b movie snakes on a plane and even if we dont have jackson we have a decent enough cast of people to make his good. We also get some background characters that add to the overall atmosphere. Its good its set in a real plane which helps with authenticity. Overall spiders on a plane is a bit of a laugh but it does have decent enough horror elements that make it entertaining throughout.

Right, well while I had never actually heard about the 2024 movie "Spiders on a Plane" prior to stumbling upon it by random chance, of course I opted to watch the movie. Why? Well, I've always found monstrous spider movies to be interesting, And let's just face it, if "Spiders on a Plane" was anywhere near as interesting as the 2006 movie "Snakes on a Plane", then it would be worth sitting down to watch.

The storyline in the movie was pretty straightforward, to the point where it was basically non-existing. Writer Ben Daly put together a script and storyline so simplistic that it was bordering on the fact that there was actually no storyline. But then again, you don't sit down to watch a movie titled "Spiders on a Plane" in the hopes of stumbling upon the next great Shakespearian masterpiece. Watchable, sure, but you're not in for anything extraordinary or grand here.

There are a lot of things in the narrative that made little or no sense. But then again, you wouldn't really expect a movie such as "Spiders on a Plane" to be a perfect cinematic experience.

Truth be told, I actually dozed off three or four times during the 65 minutes that the movie ran. And even while drifting off for a short while and returning to the movie, I didn't miss anything. So yeah, it was not really a grand script that carried the movie.

While the movie certainly wasn't crammed with A-listers in terms of actors and actresses, there were still a couple of familiar faces on the screen. I've seen enough questionable low budget movies to actually be familiar with Danielle Scott and Jase Rivers. Despite the fact that the movie was mostly unfamiliar talents, I will say that the acting performances were actually fair, taking into consideration that there was practically no script for them to work with,.

With "Spiders on a Plane" being a creature feature with spiders, of course the movie-makers would resort of CGI for bringing the spiders to life on the screen. And with it being a monstrous spider movie, having proper CGI that looks good, realistic and brings the CGI animated spiders to life in a way that the audience would actually buy into the premise, would be a crucial thing for the movie. Did it have that? No! Not even remotely. I have to say that "Spiders on a Plane" had some of the worst CGI animated spider's I've seen in movies, and I've seen more than my fair share of questionable monstrous spider movies.

I would not suggest you to rush out and waste 65 minutes on watching director Ben J. Williams's 2024 movie. Some of us sat through this sluggish movie, so you don't have to; you're quite welcome.

My rating of "Spiders on a Plane" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.

One of my biggest bugbears is the general quality of extras in films and TV. It seems to be that no matter the calibre of the leads in the film in question, it's physically impossible to find those who are even remotely capable of acting like a normal person in normal life go about their day in the background.

I IMPLORE YOU TO LOOK NO FURTHER.

The lad who seems to sleep whilst there is a torrent of spider-led destruction and massacre going on around him at 40 mins is better at acting asleep than I actually look like when I truly sleep. Why I know how I look when I sleep is by-the-by, but I was totally blown away. The look of over-the-shoulder incredulity when the spider had a whoopsie (I didn't know spiders could drool so the only option is this was spider-jizz, so his expression was absolutely fitting for the scenario) just rounded off the performance. Watch this space and Ryan Gosling - look out!

The rest of the film was meh. But that lad. Superb.

Ok this was one of the worst movies ever !! I love B movies, horror comedy, even some bad horror can be fun. But this wasn't it! Lame acting, horrible CGI, stupid script. Watch snakes on a plane instead now that was at least fun.

How does anyone make a movie like this and actually want people to see it!!! If you enjoy arachnid movies watch Infected or Arachnaphobia. If you don't have the money to put out a at least a decent movie don't bother at all.

For those that have this a good review I feel like I got played and you all did that on purpose as a joke cause this had no redeeming value whatsoever.
