The story has potential, I'll give it that. Unfortunately this was let down by a) the exceedingly poor acting and b) the fact that the "scary" anaconda looked like a leg of a pair of tights stuffed with jelly cubes. At one point in the film when it swallowed one of the boat crew I laughed for literally about 10 minutes when we saw an up close and personal view of the tight leg swimming past with what looked like a plaster of paris shape of a man in its stomach. It's worth watching simply for that bit actually, but definitely not if you're after an evening in with a good film to watch. Not the worst film I've ever seen, but definitely in the bottom 5!!
