B+

Went to see Snakes On A Plane tonight with [livejournal.com profile] jamestrainor, and it was better than I was expecting. I definitely see where they could have cut a couple of scenes (or left out dialogue) to make it PG-13 and brought home the barrels of bucks they were expecting after all the fanboy hype. That having been said, this was a decent B movie, loaded with action movie cliches and with just enough side story to keep things hopping. Recommended.
Also recommended is the cavernous C-1 Buffet in Brookyn Park, which has a gigantic selection of Chinese and American steam-table favorites, including Huge Roast Beast Parts, Chicken in Peanut Sauce (my personal downfall) and apple pie that appeared to have the same flaky crust as the Philly steak roll/calzone thingy. Extra credit granted for the genetically modified grapes, which were the size of cherry tomatoes, and the presence of Coke products. Two thumbs (and chopsticks) up!
