I actually liked Snakes on a Plane more than Cloverfield. At least Snakes had entertainment value from the sheer ridiculousness of the whole thing, but this movie was just boring and lame. There was no plot, no resolution, and the entire thing was focused on the plight of a bunch of annoying kids who by the end I was glad to see killed off. Thankfully I went to see Tim Burton's Sweeney Todd adaptation afterward, which more than made up for the disappointment that Cloverfield was.
