Ju she chuang nu xiao

This strangely titled film begins in a remote part of China where some sleazy corporate executives have devised a plan to feed various kinds of snakes a special new formula to stimulate growth in order to have more material once they skin them to make items such as handbags and shoes. What they don't count on, however, is one particular snake to grow to an enormous size and wreak havoc in the lab and--along with numerous other snakes--escape into the wilderness toward a college where female flight attendants are being trained. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this film managed to incorporate non-stop action and mediocre CGI to come up with what should have been a fairly entertaining movie experience. Where it failed, to a certain degree, was with some of the comedic elements, which simply weren't that funny. Likewise, other than a few of the main actors, it was difficult to identify most of the other characters because they were seldom addressed by name. In short, while this wasn't a bad movie necessarily, had more attention been devoted to the script, it could have been much better than it actually was, and I have rated it accordingly. Average.
