Piranha 3D (2010)

Director: Alexander Aja. Cast: Elisabeth Shue, Steven R. McQueen, Jerry O'Connell, Ving Rhames, Kelly Brook, Christopher Lloyd, Richard Dreyfuss, Eli Roth. 88 minutes. Rated R. Horror.

Embarrassed to say I enjoyed. One of those flicks that is so stupid, it's good. Regardless of the obligatory objects hurled at the viewer just because of the 3D tag (including vomit, among other objects I'd rather not "spoil"), the third episode of the trilogy (started by Joe Dante and James Cameron) leaves no stone unturned in the realm of gore, and puts the Saw movies to shame. I hadn't laughed so hard at a movie's innumerable idiotic moments for a very long time. Like Drag Me to Hell, watch this only if you know how to enjoy intentional stupidity.

  1. I enjoyed the original when there was a cinema only 4 miles away. Wanted to see this one but nobody else seemed interested, I'll catch it on TV sometime.
