Piranha 3DD Reviews

This brainless and soulless throwback to exploitation cinema occasionally entertains but mostly just makes you root for carnivorous fish to do away with everyone involved.

Full Review | Original Score: 5/10

'Piranha 3DD' will have you wanting to throw in "Jaws" just to wash off its stench and get the last remaining bloodthirsty and carnivorous fish out of your brain.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/10

The first half of the film merely treads water in anticipation for the eventual bloodbath, and once the teeth start gnawing, it's just one laborious machination after another to get to the end of the movie, which stops without much of a resolution.

Not even the Hoff can save this one.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5

The visual effects are poor and the double D of the title? Think of it a as a new exam mark and you'll be guilty of being over-optimistic.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5

The outrageousness feels calculated and even desperate, with a final ten minutes packed with beheadings in the hopes that audiences will forget how lackluster the previous 73 minutes were.

"Welcome to rock bottom" says David Hasselhoff, reduced to badly emulating his role in Baywatch. He never spoke a truer word.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5

Attempts to go for the funny bone rather than trying to frighten - and that's perhaps just as well.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5

This sequel puts such little effort into the same basic setup that it's barely even a movie.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4

Who'd have thought that a movie entitled Piranha 3DD could be so bereft of titillation?

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5

Piranha 3DD stops at mediocre before arriving at gloriously bad.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

Piranha 3DD is a shining example of a movie so bad that it's awful.

Full Review | Original Score: 32/100

It's not outrageous enough to warrant a you-gotta-see-this-to-believe-it screening, and the gore is nothing that gore fans haven't seen a hundred times before.

Full Review | Original Score: C

A carnival hustle that even The Hoff should be ashamed of.

Full Review | Original Score: F

Blood and guts are splashed around the frame, yet what's missing here is directorial authority, with Gulager a lousy gore zone conductor incapable of building momentum with easy lay-up horror elements.

Full Review | Original Score: D

Every attempt at horror and suspense is so shockingly inept Piranha 3DD might actually be hilarious if it wasn't so pathetic.

Full Review | Original Score: D-

While the previous Piranha movie had just the right blend of silliness, exploitation, and fun, Piranha 3DD seems totally lost. It comes across as forced, ugly, offensive, and lazy.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

The labored spirit of dirty-old-man humor ... prevails.

Takes the fun out of ravenous piranhas chomping down on naked women...

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4

A thunderously boring piece of trash that doesn't even live up to the barely-nominal standards that one might realistically invest towards a movie featuring rubber fish.
