Anaconda 1 & 2 are very fun. The sequels took out the water element and it just doesn't work the same. Fun story: I watched the first one in elementary school because one of the students taped it the night before and brought the VHS to school.

Chris is being a bit facetious here, but Anaconda IS beloved...by horror fans and movie nerds alike. A movie doesn't need critical approval to be liked and remembered. We're still talking about Anaconda almost 30 years later. Are we still talking the Best Picture winner of 1997? Nope! Anaconda was made during the last gasp of Hollywood filmmaking where a good budget, FROM A STUDIO, could be poured into a creature feature. Anaconda is a well made, star studded monster movie. And it kicks ass. We need to go back to this time. Every once in a while a decently budgeted film like this gets theatrically released - the banger that is Crawl, for example. The Shallows, a few others here and there. But this era is mostly long gone. We were eating good in the 90s and didn't know it. Anaconda, Deep Blue Sea, Lake Placid - the good old days.

But I never forgot that Owen Wilson, Jon Voight, Jennifer Lopez, and Ice Cube were ALL in this. It felt like either a monster movie trying to be a parody of other monster movies (with the cast) or a campy 90s monster movie; trying to be like "Jaws", but with a massive snake, and also, trying too hard to take itself seriously at certain points, with some laughably bad special effects, but they didn't look that bad... in 1997. They looked fine in '97. Nowadays, they make the movie seem almost like it's a movie length skit about what a giant snake movie in the jungle starring, Jon Voight, Jennifer Lopez, Danny Trejo, Owen Wilson, and Ice Cube MIGHT look like. I'm NOT saying it's a terrible movie or anything, it's one of my favorite "so bad, it's good" movies. It just isn't a very scary movie.

Wait, there's MORE than ONE Anaconda movie?!? But after having J-Lo, Jon Voight, Danny Trejo, Owen Wilson, and Ice Cube, how did they make sequels? This wasn't a horrible movie, just feels slightly like a parody of bad monster movies, but is a pretty good, "so bad, it's good" movie. But it's not too scary though. But it tried to be scary, at least. And everyone gives better performances than you'd expect for something like this, especially Jon Voight and his stupid obviously faked Latin accent throughout the movie, Ice Cube pretending to play the nice guy cameraman, Owen Wilson trying to be the ladies man, only to get possibly the most brutal death in the entire film...until near the end, where Voight's character tries to get BOTH Ice Cube and Jennifer Lopez killed so he can catch(or kill?) The anaconda himself? I forget. I haven't seen the film in a long time. Still one of my favorite guilty pleasure movies though. Can't deny that.

Something interesting about this movie is that it was rated R18+ on VHS in Australia. I'd look at the box art at the video store every time I went, but couldn't hire it out because I was too young. Me and my friends always wanted to see it, because we thought it must be pretty brutal. Eventually, it got bumped down to just an M rating, which was weird, but it allowed me to hire it. I absolutely loved the movie, but I never understood why it had the R18+ rating in the first place. Maybe due to the wasp scene? I don't know. Either way, this film was a legend amongst my friends because of it, and it made us want to watch it all the time.

I remember watching this movie as a kid when it aired in Albania in the 2000s either alone or with my older brother and my cousin. I even watched the sequel and the third movie. The first big snake movie I watched was Boa vs. Python. I remember being genuinely scared of these movies at first until they no longer scared me. I still found the anaconda terrifying, though. And the fact that this is how big real-life anacondas are made it even more terrifying. As I grew older I realised it's not good but not bad, either. I actually consider it a guilty pleasure. Maybe it has to do with the anaconda's design and the cast, even though Phelous was less than pleased when he reviewed all the Anaconda movies. Compared to the sequels, which are utter stinkers, this might be the best one, no hint of sarcasm.

I know, this is not the best work from anyone, but the cast is fantastic and though Voight looks harder than a rock through the whole movie, most of it really works.

The internet was an infant military platform experiment back then, so this movie was mostly a breakout for newcomers like Jennifer and the others. It was apparently cheesy and unrealistic, but yes, it dominated tv reruns in my country for a few years.

I made my dad take me to see this in theaters when it came out. I loved ice cube. I still regularly watch this on VHS.

I vaguely recall a commercial 'some things bite! some things tear and some things SQUEEEZE!' something like that.

When the Anaconda regurgitated John Voight's character, and he literally "winked" at J-Lo...that was some boss shit, lmao!!!

Recently watched this with my husband and it’s provably my favourite movie experience this Halloween! An absolute blast. Also my husband had no idea that was JLo 😂🤦♀️

This un-ironically is with whole heart honestly… in (at least) my top 5 favourite movies of all time

Totally get it, Chris. I grew up watching Anaconda and i was entertained. Watching it as an adult has definitely shifted in opinion, but as a B-creature feature, it does the job 👍🏽

There are so many movies that I loved as I child and now when I find out that most of them were a flop or failure it's shocking to me. And one those movies is Anaconda, I freaking loved it man.

My man, this was scary as hell when I was a kid. This was an amazing movie at the time. Got to look at it from the context of the late 90s to appreciate it.
