Messner is the charismatic linchpin of the movie; he's eye-candy, he's heroic and he displays outright contempt for his passengers--so we relate to him the most.
The boat--christened the Bloody Mary--is helmed by gorgeously grizzled, muscular vet Bill Johnson (Johnny Messner).

The film is at its best when it gives in to such impulses: the loopier the dialogue, the better.
You, however, can well imagine, because the movie begins with a set of local hunters pursued by one of the snakes.

In truth, Anacondas isn't an all out bad movie at heart.
Rather, it's a poorly written, clichéd B-monster movie.
In the end, I can't help but recommend Anacondas .
Thankfully, upon second viewing, Anacondas fared a bit better.
