Piranha 3DD Reviews

The previous film was surprisingly delightful, with those successes being totally absent from this follow-up.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 24, 2023

The gore is a bit limited at first, while the computer-animated chompers still look terribly fake, but the over-the-top violence soon supplements the routine nakedness.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Dec 2, 2020

The film also features gratuitous cameos from the likes of Gary Busey being Gary Busey and, in a more extended cameo, David Hasselhoff being David Hasselhoff.

| Original Score: 1.0/4.0 | Sep 20, 2020

Piranha 3DD fails to match the full-blown bloodbath of the first movie, and features too many callbacks to that film to really establish its own identity.

Here is a follow-up that could not be any more clueless if it had been conceived in a void.

| Original Score: 0.5/4 | Sep 12, 2017

This movie looks like it was shot in 1989 and cobbled together randomly.

| Aug 26, 2015

The picture's biggest sin (or biggest achievement) is the fact that it manages to be stunningly short yet still have several flat, boring stretches.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 25, 2013

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.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Sep 15, 2012

An absolutely awful sequel that flushes any potential this franchise might have otherwise had.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Sep 10, 2012

More fun than Piranha 3D, the original remake (if that's a thing), because it is more ridiculous.

| Original Score: 7 out of 10 | Jun 21, 2012

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

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jun 9, 2012

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

| Original Score: F | Jun 8, 2012

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.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 8, 2012

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.

| Original Score: D | Jun 6, 2012

Witless, technically slipshod, and neither remotely scary nor titillating, it pretty much fails on all levels.

| Original Score: D- | Jun 5, 2012

...boasts a roster of hopelessly forgettable central characters and, for the most part, lurches from one poorly-conceived set-piece to the next.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 5, 2012

Low-budget, softcore - destined to make a quick detour to DVD so sneaky, testosterone-propelled teens can easily subvert the R-rating.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Jun 4, 2012

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

| Original Score: 32/100 | Jun 4, 2012

Tacky and intermittently entertaining is all"Piranha 3DD"sets out to be, and that is all this playfully graphic horror-comedy sequel accomplishes.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 4, 2012

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

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 2, 2012
