Review of Piranha 3DD (2012) by Frederick M — 08 Apr 2013

Hm..this is a tricky one. It's not as violent and SHOCKING as the first one. I didn't expect so much carnage and boobage in the first one, it's a very sickly sweet taste. I thought the acting and overall plot of the first one was asenine.

yet it was entertaining. this one...had far more tongue in cheek humor, and was not at all scary or shocking. It was just gross. I never expected this to be good but I was mildly interested because of Gary Busey and David Hasselhoff's roles.

But they were big letdowns. Gary Busey's character literally disappears early in the movie with absolutely no mention later. And- David Hasselhoff from the trailer looked like he'd be playing a spoof of his baywatch character.

But I was hoping for the nicer, cooler side of that character- instead he plays the ultimate scumbag and media whore. I know they're trying to play up the "love to hate" type of character but he was just annoying and unfunny.

Some of the lead women actresses in this were nice looking but the beach bimbos they get topless and naked in this look like second rate porn stars. Some of them just looked repulsive and freakish. This is by far a comedy and takes nothing in its mythology or story at all serious, which is why every joke, every character, every moment of the movie is just throwaway and pointless.
