Featured review
Just another generic creature feature with lousy CGI effects...
First of all, I must admit that I had absolutely no expectations for this 2010 movie. Why? Well, for starters, look at the name; "Megaconda". That just drips with low budget and horrible creature feature all over it. And usually movies with monstrously large snakes tend to be dubious at best.
But I hadn't seen the movie before, so of course I ended up sitting down to watch the 2010 movie from writer Steve Latshaw and director Christopher Olen Ray.
So how was it? Well, pretty much as it could possible be. A predictable movie with such a generic script that even a dead person could be able to keep up with it. And the CGI animated snake was so fake and poorly made that even a computer game from the 1990s would reject it.
Granted, "Megaconda" was not among the best of huge snake movies. No, not even by a longshot. Yet, I managed to get through the entire ordeal.
The acting in the movie was adequate enough, if you take into consideration the limitations of the script and the flaccid characters they had to work with. Of course, a movie such as this doesn't really boast any grand names on the billing.
A creature feature such as "Megaconda" is required to have realistic effects, or at least a creature design that you can buy into. But "Megaconda" didn't have that. Instead we were treated to a horribly animated CGI snake that was definitely among some of the worst animated snake effects I have suffered through.
My rating of "Megaconda" lands on a staggering three out of ten stars. This was a swing and a miss folks, and you might as well just give the movie a wide berth, because it is not really worth the time, money or effort.
