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.

Anyone who thinks this move is bad, does not have a sense of humour
It's hilarious, made me smile and I'm a tough contender for knowing funny
8 legged freaks, snakes on a plane, Sean of the dead vibe
Spiders on Airplane!
It's perfectly orchestrated It's a lot of fun
Don't listen to them fools who don't know a good movie they only want attention and we don't need the negativity let's just enjoy.
For a groundbreaking achievement, with a lot of new faces, not relying on recognised personalities like samuel Jackson
Its proper satire

I hope you have a wonderful day x.
It's all gravy bubs.

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.

Heading off for a special trip, a group of friends boards a special plane trip where they try to stay away from the other passengers causing a ruckus on the flight which soon turns deadly when a swarm of killer spiders is released onboard forcing them to try to get the plane to safety.
Overall, this was a pretty decent and enjoyable effort. One of the better features of this one is the generally strong and enjoyable method of building up to a series of disasters in the plane that gets everything set up and starting to get out of control. With the early exploits of this one focusing on the series of traditional struggles within a plane that goes for the majority of the time here involving the passengers going through their different demands and customs before a flight, the starting point to this one comes across rather nicely with the group causing difficulty for the flight crew. The initial series of complaints about shoddy service or the inability to access certain parts of the plane serves as a fine setup for what's coming up later on as these all manage to come back in the second half to be solid callbacks once the spiders are unleashed. When these spiders are unleashed, there's quite a lot to like here with the series of confrontations and encounters that take place involving the spiders getting free and running wild in the plane. With the first scenes in their escape from the cargo hold signaling the disturbance necessary to warrant investigation from the pilots, their discovery of the cobweb-riddled setting allows for a fun start to lead into the incredibly enjoyable takeover of the passengers when they run wild throughout these sections. Featuring a solid mixture of practical spider puppets shown crawling over bodies or the inner parts of the fuselage with CGI creations seeing massive swarms of smaller-size creatures running over the plane taking out whoever they can in graphic means, it has some variety as the different attempts to fight back so they can get the plane to safety gets rather fun with some bloody deaths along the way. These all manage to give this one some pretty likable factors. There are some issues here keeping this one down. Among the main detriments in the film is the flimsy means that signal how the spiders get on the plane in the first place which is immensely silly and not that realistic. The idea of getting them through customs onto a private passenger plane to transport them back to the United States so they can be studied is incredibly weak and manages to just be stupid enough to work yet never be considered plausible or logical in any kind of realistic scenario. That includes the usual series of setbacks associated with the setup including the pilots being incapacitated and unable to land the plane forcing one of the survivors with long-forgotten flying experience to get them to safety which is quite silly and wouldn't be considered at all. Combined with the aforementioned flimsy special effects that don't look all that realistic regardless of execution method, there are some factors here holding this down.
Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Language and Graphic Violence.

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.
