Each year the population of sleepy Lake Victoria, Arizona explodes from 5,000 to 50,000 residents for the annual Spring Break celebration. But then, an earthquake opens an underwater chasm, releasing an enormous swarm of ancient Piranha that have been dormant for thousands of years, now with a taste for human flesh. This year, there's something more to worry about than the usual hangovers and complaints from locals, a new type of terror is about to be cut loose on Lake Victoria.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

After a sudden underwater tremor sets free scores of the prehistoric man-eating fish, an unlikely group of strangers must band together to stop themselves from becoming fish food for the area's new razor-toothed residents. Piranha 3D is a film that knows exactly what it is and that's good to say the least right? It's not some oscar worthy masterpiece likes Jaws but it's no Jaws IV: The Revenge and it's quite fun if you really don't take it seriously. The acting was ok but then again you shouldn't expect anything more and the cgi pretty passable. There's also a sequel called Piranha 3DD but i would suggest not to even see it cause it sucked big time and it was not as good as this. (7/10)

This movie has good things going for it.It was shot on 35mm Panavision rather than a digital camera.It stars Steve McQueen's grandson. It was shot in beautiful lake Havasu.The nude sequences are provide by the porn actresses,like Riley Steele,who ends up as food for the Piranha.Elizabeth Shue is the tough Female sheriff of the fictitious town in Lake Havasu watching the teenagers in Spring Break.She insist that there son avoid spring break and he is forced to watch his little sister,played by Brooklyn Proulx,who in on scene makes a complement towards Kelly Brooks Breast and how this little girl states that she hates to wear a bra cause it itches, and her friend.He pays them to take care of themselves.He was ask to show some nudie porn film maker ,that puts out re sort of real wild girl type video.portrayed by the very funny.Jerry O'Connell,the tour of the fake town.When he has been almost eaten up by the Piranha he act humorously,saying ."They ate my penis". Boy those fishes sure get hungry and all those realistic appliances with fake blood on the extras look so realistic.My brother who is sensitive to violence and gore would have fit .A scene where a wire from a another boat slices one of the students in half was so realistic ,as real as the bloody war sequences in Birth of a nation,D.W. Griffith version.There is a nice women to women ballet nude under water sequence.This movie is a good as Jaws 1 .The french film maker did a good job.Aja.The problem is the 3D .It was converted and it's uneven.The better 3D converted shots is the under water scenes and the titles and the female nude scenes.The problem is that when it comes to the close up and medium shots the face and body detail are not 3d enough.The distance shot look more flat .Now there are some good 3d shots,but ,they did not thoroughly make all the scenes evenly,unless I got a bad Blu-Ray disc.I don't think so. this was 2010.I had heard the titans 3d was poor .So this obviously was a tried experiment in 3d conversion.Today they do better.It was still entertaining.Steve's grandson was sure a good looker,but, so were the chicks.Worth the the watch.12/28/17

I don't know what I'm watching! Am I watching a porno or a horror movie? This movie doesn't make sense at all like the cgi is terrible like it look unfinished. I think it's a B movie so I don't know. What a awful story it is. This movie is a porno but with no sex. One thing I got to say is, it's gory as hell but it doesn't scare me at all. This movie has 3-D but it's cheesy so I'm not falling for that. Man, Netflix starting to has crappy movies now.

Is this crap really what people want to see!? Is it really!!?? With its story set at Lake Victoria during a long-weekend celebration, Piranha's young, adult cast was primarily made up of belligerent jocks (all out to prove what hard-drinking, party-animals they were) and tit-wiggling bimbos (all out to prove what an easy-lay they all really were).In this film, it was pretty obvious to see who was (and who wasn't) going to be the next meal for the ravenous piranhas on their up-coming feeding frenzy. (Chomp. Chomp) And, with that in mind, it sure didn't take long for me to get completely bored with all of this flesh-eating carnage in no time flat.And, finally - This horror flick's lame attempt to give some plausible background to the reason behind these vicious piranha attacks only served to reduce the whole pointless mess to an even lower level of stupidity imaginable.You can certainly bet by the predictable note that this film's story ended on that Piranha 2 was very likely on its way to theatres everywhere in the months to come.
