Movie Review: Piranha 3D

Sometimes a movie comes out that is just so bad that its brilliant. That is the kind of movie Piranha 3D tries to be. And fails. It has its sweet parts of course. Like when two people are carrying a Piranha-eaten girl out of the water and she breaks in half. Or when a girls hair gets caught in the propeller of a boat and she gets scalped. Or when Jerry O'Connell dies so he has to stop talking (even though he doesn't.) But I'm getting ahead of myself! Onto the plot!

There isn't one! Basically, a beer bottle causes a earth quake that leads to hundreds of previously cannibalistic prehistoric piranhas to be released on a Spring Break party lake. As you can imagine, terror ensues.  

The characters were awful. But they were very predictable in that they did everything that badly written characters in horror movies have to do. The boy who's supposed to be baby sitting his siblings, instead abandons them and runs off right into the arms (or teeth) of awaiting danger. The kids, of course, don't stay put like they're supposed to and later must be rescued. My biggest problem is: If you're making a movie called Piranha 3D, which is purposefully, and shamelessly all about boobs and blood, why do you need all the moral dilemmas? Just have fun with it! We don't come to these movies to watch the ugly boy (who I'm a better actor than) apologize to his Sheriff mom about being an irresponsible baby sitter. We come for boobs and blood. And yes this movie had it, but that I couldn't even enjoy. Why? I'm a Buddhist. Why else? The terrible 3D. 

I love Avatar 3D. It's incredible. Especially in IMAX.  It turns an awesome movie into a breath taking experience. There is absolutely no reason to see any other movie in 3D at this point. Nothing stands up. It's just a gimmick and in this movie it was a nauseating, head ache inducing gimmick. I guess you can consider what this movie did 3D, but it really just looked like a pop up book. The screen was flat, and heads and fish and boobs stuck out at you making you go cross eyed. It was not enjoyable and it ruined all the sweet blood in the movie for me.

Conclusion? This was always going to be a bad movie but it should have been an awesome bad movie. The people who made it, however, weren't talented enough to make a good bad movie so they ended up with just a really bad bad movie.  It makes me sad sad.

One good this came out of this movie. And this is this terrific For Your Consideration ad they made. It's awesome.
