Why so much hype?

Load of rubbish!!

Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

One of the worst movies ever made! The movie is about a businessman (Pare) who gets mixed up in the Russian mafia run by Hassan (Scheider). To get straight to the point: This has some of the worst editing ever! There are jagged cuts everywhere. The special effect at the end was terrible and the acting was very bad and dubbed horribly. If you like Roy Scheider watch "The Peacekeeper", "Jaws" or "Citizen Verdict", or "Blue Thunder"."Streets Of Fire" or "October 22" showcase Pare's talent much better than "Red Serpent".For more insanity, please visit: comeuppancereviews.com

I've seen many comedy's; Undercover Brother, Scary Movie 1 and 2, the Austin Powers series and loads more. There were some that just made me chuckle, some that gave me two or three really good laughs, but none ever really got me to roll over the floor.I watched this movie with a bunch of friends. We were kinda bored, stuck in a student apartment, and this guy said he had a cool movie.What followed were the funniest one-and-a-half-hours of my life. We ended up watching it three times, every single time we picked up new brilliantly placed jokes and cliché's that are so bad, they oughta be satires. Looking back, it still cracks us up. This thing is a masterpiece.Have you ever felt you're not a man for comedy movies? They don't really crack you up? Watch this with a bunch of friends. If it works out well it might end up like it did for me: the funniest 90 minutes of my life.You'll never know when he'll strike! God, even the tag line is hilarious.

I would like to say that I enjoyed watching this movie. I would never tell you that it is a movie that should win an award, but this is a good entertainment flick. The actors in this movie were good, I particularly liked how Michael Pare starred. He reminds me of the French actor Alain Delon; also, Roy Scheider had a good role as the villain who had plans to kill the good people. Oleg Taktarov was also outstanding in this movie and the way he acted. The best part was when Pare uses a small firearm and shoots Scheider's helicopter down with only one bullet. It is also amazing how at the end of the movie, you find out Pare's real profession. If you like action and suspense, I would recommend this movie.

I once had such a great urge to be entertained that I fell to the temptation to buy "Supergirl". It's by far the worst movie in my DVD collection. Until yesterday evening it was also the worst movie I've ever seen. Now I've found one orders of magnitudes worse. Or should I say hilarious?Me and two friends rented this movie, Red Serpent, which first nearly bored us to death with its lousy technical quality, really really bad performing actors, homemade stunts and awful(ly missing) plot. In the second half of the movie, we honestly didn't think it could get any worse, but it just continued going downhill, and we just couldn't help laughing louder and louder. The final scene was the funniest of it all, no thanks to the creators of this awful goo of a movie.If you're looking for an action movie, shy away from this one. If you like movies a la "Jackass - The Movie", and you're looking for a good laugh, this may be a good candidate.
