Movie Review: Piranha 3DD (3D)

The title of the movie is unnecessarily convoluted, just like everything else about the movie. When a water park is attacked by the dangerous "strong enough to butt their way through steel" piranhas, you can only imagine the mayhem it will cause. But unlike the first installment, the movie never builds up the horror, wastes some excellent possibilities, and ruins the experience through a story line and screen play that relies on close ups of bikini clad women crawling in gulaal, cheap sexapedes and a very old and sorry looking David Hasselhoff with unabashed references to Baywatch and Knight Rider to entertain. While a couple of 3D effects are amazing, it just doesn't compensate for 75 mins of rubbish.

Avoid at any cost. Go to the local fish market instead.
