Just try it and see.

The 2 hours that you might spend trying to solicit and evaluate responses
from those on this list would already be enough to get a feel for Python!

You can whiz through the tutorial, then write a toy program or browse through
some existing code. (e.g. standard library modules)

(Hint: don't expect to choose between Python and other languages based on
'features' -- you won't find legibility, sanity and brevity mentioned
on any Java feature list.)

Have fun,

-Steve
