    Ups the self-parody so much that it's practically a Wayans Brothers spoof, albeit with fewer jokes.

    The best part of Piranha 3DD, the pointless sequel to the utterly unnecessary 2010 remake of Piranha, is the credits. Not only do they signify that the film is finally, mercifully over, but they also allow for David Hasselhoff to sing the theme song to a new fake TV series called The Fish Hunter, a clever meta-gag that nods both to Baywatch and the Hoff's international recording success.

    Add to this that it takes place in the town of Merkin, and you'll get an idea of the labored spirit of dirty-old-man humor that prevails.

    As sequels go, Piranha 3DD has barely enough heft to squeeze out 83 minutes of ho-hum entertainment, although it faithfully delivers plenty of menacing fish and bouncing boobs, as amply advertised.

  1. Given the extremely low user and critic reviews, I thought I, someone who loved Piranha 3D, would be greatly disappointed in this film. But this film was hilarious! What I don't understand is how people can criticize the movie for its story, acting, etc. The movie is about a bunch of prehistoric piranhas that get into a water park where girls run around naked. The film revels in its own absurdity, and that's what is so great about it. What did you expect, Rosemary's Baby? Collapse
  2. This movies is way better than the first, the predecessor is nothing more than a slaughter fest. This movie we have good character development and more interesting premises. The movie has its faults with being overtly silly and laughable but isn't that better than the first? The first was simply the brainless murder or a bunch of kids in a lake nothing more. In this movie we get some comedy, horror, and hassle hoff. Its not a bad movie better than the 1st. Expand
  3. This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie is a bit bad, but I'm going to get a five because you spend a "good" while watching it. I thought I saw Piranha 3D holding pieces and put into this film (not confirm that they were). And the movie has a very bad temper, eg kill the child when I was a little weird. Expand
