Piranha 3DD is disturbing, offensive, and an utter atrocity.

I should have known... anything named Piranha 3DD was bound to be terrible. Seduced by the fun of the first movie, I sat down for what turned out to be a impossibly difficult viewing experience. After the events of the first film, the piranhas continue their path of terror and stumble upon a newly opened water park. They break into the pipes and appear in the pools and on water slides, tormenting and eating anyone they see. Can anyone stop these monstrous fish?

So clearly the plot makes no sense. This movie is also more sexualized than the first, bringing it to a disturbing level. The combination of graphic sexual content, horrific violence, and unfunny dark humor is enough to make almost anyone cringe. There are few (if any) redeeming qualities of this film. At one part, the characters hop from deck to deck trying to avoid the snapping jaws of a giant piranha. I think that was the only scrap of fun I experienced while watching this movie. Let the record show, I couldn't even finish this movie. It is very rare that I get offended while watching movies. I was very uncomfortable throughout the whole film but 30-45 minutes in I began to see things that shocked me to my core. I am talking about things so disgusting and lowbrow I was stunned and can't even talk about. I shut my eyes and stumbled up to my DVD player to shut it off, in complete and utter shock of what I had just seen. I can assure you, it made no sense but it was shocking all the same. I struggle to think of anyone who would enjoy this movie. I myself am completely ashamed to say I wasted my time with it. However, if you are insistent on seeing it... you have been warned. Overall, Piranha 3DD is disgusting, stupid, and should be skipped by everyone.

Piranha (2010) is a showcase of over-the-top violence that manages to entertain.

This movie is a remake of the 1978 satire of Jaws which was also named Piranha. Welcome to Lake Victoria, a quiet town that will soon be flooded with wild teens on their spring break. Nothing can stop their good time splashing in the water... except maybe some killer fish. A recent earthquake has opened up an underwater canyon that leads to a second lake, buried under the first one. In that second lake, a species of vicious prehistoric piranhas have survived by eating each other, but now they are hungry for more. Sheriff Julie Forester tries to keep the rowdy teens out of the water, but no one listens... not even her son who goes out on a boat to help shoot an adult film. Everybody soon learns that there is indeed "something in the water." The film is brimming with partying, nudity and horrifying violence and gore. The movie is a satire of the horror genre that seems to put sex and violence together and serve it up to moviegoers. Spring breakers are frequently seen topless and behaving inappropriately. The sexual content and nudity are constant and would be a major problem, if it were not overshadowed by the violence. This movie may share the same plot as Jaws but it is not the same. The level of violence in Piranha makes Jaws look like a children's movie. The beginning of the movie is relatively tame, focusing more on the "setup". About halfway through, there is a sequence where the horde of piranhas reach the populated shores of spring break and the results are terrible. Gallons of blood flow as teens are massacred by these tiny fish and the results are stomach-churning. I saw things that one should never see. I don't want to go into detail but believe me, it is over-the-top and horrific. It is absolutely not for the faint of heart. However, horror fans who can handle excessive blood and gore may find this film entertaining and laugh at the absolute ridiculous nature of the film. As far as character development goes, there is none. Each character serves a single purpose and most are killed off without second thought. If you are looking for a movie with a complex and plausible plot, keep looking. You certainly won't find it here. In spite of all the gore and violence, Piranha somehow manages to entertain, providing a brainless and fun horror movie. Overall, Piranha is stupid and utterly disgusting but may provide horror fans with a fun time.
