Genre: Horror/Horreur

Annee/Year: 2010

Format: Blu Ray

Piranha. This movie was backed by serious money. A director with a few movies under his belt: Alexandre Aja (The hills have eyes, Mirrors,...). A great cast: Richard Dreyfuss, Eli Roth, Ving Rhames, Christopher Loyd, Elizabeht Shue, Jerry O'conner (Sliders), and more. A huge production value. and 3D. Maybe after all the 3D part should have given me a clue.

The result is a piece of crap. This movie was the biggest let down in the last months. They even managed to screw up the blood in the water which was CGed...wow! That should be quite affordable with such a production. They play up a lot the scene of the springbreak and the young girls which quickly get naked. But pirnahas eating a chick and leaving the silicon implants floating...really.. the guy who gets is dick eaten and spit out for cheap 3D effect...come on. Juvenile, unnecessary and without a real scare factor at all. This type of movie gives horror movies a bad rap. So PLEASE DONT EVER compare that to Jaws who was a masterpiece compared to this. An insult and definitely to skip unless you need to see naked chicks and cant affort a real porno.

Piranha. Ce film est une honte. Une honte au genre du film d'horreur. Une honte en ce comparant à jaws. Une honte qu'avec autant de ressources ($$$, acteurs fameux tel Richard Dreyfuss, Eli Roth, Ving Rhames, Christopher Loyd, Elizabeth Shue, Jerry O'conner (Sliders)). Une honte parce que ce film se veut populaire auprès de nos ados: come on il faut insulter leur intelligence a ce point? Une honte pcq malgré tout ce cash pour faire de la 3D ils n’étaient pas foutus faire du sang dans l'eau qui soit crédible (CG). Quelle merde et quelle déception. Pourtant il y avait du potentiel et des ressources pour faire qq chose de bien. Le seul point intéressant est la nudité gratuite et encore...voir un mec se faire bouffer la queue par un piranha et la recracher a l'écran pour un effet 3D moronique c'est un point bas jamais atteint a ce point. Ne perdez pas votre $$ sur ce film.
