Given the task definition, example input & output, solve the new input case.
In this task, you must classify if a given review is positive/negative, indicating your answer as P or N.
Example: plot : two teen couples go to a church party , drink and then drive .
they get into an accident .
one of the guys dies , but his girlfriend continues to see him in her life , and has nightmares .
what 's the deal ?
watch the movie and " sorta " find out . . .
critique : a mind - fuck movie for the teen generation that touches on a very cool idea , but presents it in a very bad package .
which is what makes this review an even harder one to write , since i generally applaud films which attempt to break the mold , mess with your head and such ( lost highway & memento ) , but there are good and bad ways of making all types of films , and these folks just did n't snag this one correctly
.
they seem to have taken this pretty neat concept , but executed it terribly .
so what are the problems with the movie ?
well , its main problem is that it 's simply too jumbled
.
it starts off " normal " but then downshifts into this " fantasy " world in which you , as an audience member ,
have no idea what 's going on
.
there are dreams , there are characters coming back from the dead , there are others who look like the dead , there are strange apparitions , there are disappearances , there are a looooot of chase scenes , there are tons of weird things that happen , and most of it is simply not explained .
now i personally do n't mind trying to unravel a film every now and then , but when all it does is give me the same clue over and over again , i get kind of fed up after a while , which is this film 's biggest problem .
it 's obviously got this big secret to hide , but it seems to want to hide it completely until its final five minutes .
and do they make things entertaining , thrilling or even engaging , in the meantime ?
not really .
the sad part is that the arrow and i both dig on flicks like this , so we actually figured most of it out by the half - way point , so all of the strangeness after that did start to make a little bit of sense , but it still did n't the make the film all that more entertaining .
i guess the bottom line with movies like this is that you should always make sure that the audience is " into it " even before they are given the secret password to enter your world of understanding .
i mean , showing melissa sagemiller running away from visions for about 20 minutes throughout the movie is just plain lazy ! !
okay , we get it .
. .
there are people chasing her and we do n't know who they are .
do we really need to see it over and over again ?
how about giving us different scenes offering further insight into all of the strangeness going down in the movie ?
apparently , the studio took this film away from its director and chopped it up themselves , and it shows .
there might 've been a pretty decent teen mind - fuck movie in here somewhere , but i guess " the suits " decided that turning it into a music video with little edge , would make more sense .
the actors are pretty good for the most part , although wes bentley just seemed to be playing the exact same character that he did in american beauty , only in a new neighborhood .
but my biggest kudos go out to sagemiller , who holds her own throughout the entire film , and actually has you feeling her character 's unraveling .
overall , the film does n't stick
because it does n't entertain , it 's confusing , it rarely excites and
it feels pretty redundant for most of its runtime , despite a pretty cool ending and explanation to all of the craziness that came before it .
oh ,
and by the way , this is not a horror or teen slasher flick . . .
it 's just packaged to look that way because someone is apparently assuming that the genre is still hot with the kids .
it also wrapped production two years ago and has been sitting on the shelves ever since .
whatever . .
. skip it !
where 's joblo coming from ?

The phrases used in the review convey a negative sentiment (e.g. "presents it in a very bad package").

New input case for you: well , what are you going to expect ?
it 's a movie about a big snake that eats people .
that 's what i should have been thinking when i viewed this film , because maybe then i would have enjoyed myself more .
instead , i ended up wishing a giant snake would come along and eat me , too .
anaconda is about a documentary film crew sailing down a south american river .
led by anthropologists dr .
steven cale ( eric stolz ) and terri flores ( jennifer lopez ) , the crew is attempting to locate a lost tribe of natives .
along the way , they find poacher paul sarone ( jon voight ) , and become unwillingly embroiled in his quest to capture the elusive anaconda .
to simply say that this is the world 's largest snake would n't be doing it justice , since the anaconda in this movie is at least two feet wide .
if this is n't a good reason to avoid picking up hitchhikers , i do n't know what is .
at the beginning of anaconda , we find that flores and cale have had some kind of relationship in the past , but that seems to be more or less over now .
i expected that fact to play a key part somewhere down the line , but it ended up being a set - up for nothing .
cale chokes on a deadly wasp ( do n't ask me how that happens - i do n't know ) and is put out of action , relegated to being the person whom the rest of the film crew must get back to civilization for medical help .
this minimally helps to add a sense of urgency for the plot , since this goal now comes in direct conflict with sarone 's plan to capture the snake .
however , this is negated by the fact that cale seems to get better by himself about halfway through the film , and in any event still results in zero payoff from the relationship angle .
most bad characters are either annoying or stupid .
in this movie , they 're both .
since this description applies to all the characters except sarone , it 's hard to find someone to root for .
you 're supposed to back the good guys , but you really end up cheering for sarone because he 's smarter than everyone else .
or maybe he 's just not as dumb as everyone else .
at times , i almost found myself rooting for the snake .
there are no standout performances here .
everyone seems to be reciting lines written for stock characters .
even voight appears to be doing his best impression of christopher walken for some reason .
no matter , as in most monster movies , the snake is supposed to be the real star anyway .
in most of the scenes , the snake is computer generated , and the effects crew did a decent job of making it look real . however ,
the realism is thrown off by some pretty unrealistic occurrences .
sometimes , for example , the snake just moves too fast .
it catches a guy jumping off of a waterfall , for crying out loud .
then there 's another scene where the snake eats one of the characters , and we see the snake 's skin drawn so tightly over its prey that we can see the victim 's pained expression from within the snake 's belly .
absolutely ridiculous .
a testimony to the film 's bad direction is the inclusion of a scene early on the in the film , where we get to see just how dangerous the mighty anaconda is .
in a scene totally unrelated to anything else , we are witness to the big snake winning a showdown with a panther .
the anaconda wraps itself around the powerful feline as if it were a stuffed animal and squeezes it so hard , one of the panther 's eyeballs pops out .
eeeewwwww .
above and beyond the sick factor , however , this scene surprised me because it actually showed the face of the snake before a quarter of the movie had even passed .
in films like these , a sense of mystery surrounding the monster must be maintained .
if the characters are reacting to something they fear more than see , we as an audience must experience that feeling along with them .
to show us the monster early on is to let us in on something the characters do n't know about , and therefore allow us to get used to the danger before the pivotal moment when man and beast have their climactic showdown .
in a case like that , the showdown just ends up being a letdown .
when i saw the snake for the first time , i decided to give the film the benefit of the doubt and assume that the snake i saw was n't the real danger .
this one was just a decoy , and there was actually a bigger snake waiting to make its appearance just when everyone thought they were safe .
no such luck .
okay , maybe anaconda is actually a decoy , and there 's really a better movie waiting to make its debut .
