Well I gotta admit I only watched this just to see if someone would try to reach Jon Voight's hamminess levels from the original 1997 movie lol. While the antagonist doesn't go full out insane like Jon Voight did, he did have quite a number of moments where you could tell the guy was giving it his all and if you ask me, the antagonist was the most memorable character here too.
I actually do think this remake had some bits of action that were better when compared to the original, it's nothing out of this world but some scenes had more fast paced action than the original. I did like seeing how this movie went about recreating scenes from the original in a much different way and it actually also took a few notes from the 2nd Anaconda movie.
I personally thought that the CG snake would sometimes look rather acceptable but suddenly look outright bad in other scenes but hey the same could be said about the original. I actually was hoping they would go with a combination of using both animatronics and CGI.
I say it's worth watching if you're a fan of the original movie, because it really is just as cheesy as the original movie filled with scenes you're 'supposed to take serious' but you can't because they're so insanely ridiculous. I'll be the first to admit, it's definitely a bad movie but I think it's a bad movie where you can have a bit of fun watching it lol.
