Piranha 3DD is the sequel to Piranha 3D and other than the prehistoric origin of the title critters, it is connected through its use of gratuitous nudity, Ving Rhames and Christopher Lloyd. The original story has Richard Dreyfus getting killed in the first scene. In this production we are happy to see it is Gary Busey. In the original feature, porn stars provided most of the topless scenes. In this one they opt to use main stream women. Perhaps the first feature should be called 3DD and this one 3D.This story takes place in Arizona where Maddy (Danielle Panabaker) is dismayed that her stepfather (David Koechner) has changed the water park into an adult water park with topless "certified" strippers acting as lifeguards. Meanwhile the late Gary Busey has released the hideous piranha into the town's lake. So how do we get piranha from the lake into the swimming pools? Christopher Lloyd gives us clues.The movie is a teen sex romp. It has lines which are an adolescent's dream, such as "Let's take off all our clothes and go swimming" and a few I can't repeat. The van scene was interesting if not sacrilegious. There is an intense lake scene with our heroine and one of the weirdest sex scenes since "Teeth." Up to this point I was thinking how much I liked what they did, with some new bits. Then at the climax scene, they made it ridiculous, especially the part with David Koechner.Parental Guide: F-bomb, sex, full frontal nudity, nudity (Irina Voronina, Cody Kennedy, plus many others)

okay so I am going to chop off my dick if there is a piranha biting it??? Why didn't he just stick the knife in its head and kill it? do not watch this movie unless you want a good - well bad laugh not as good as the first one, but lots of T&A if you like to see it for that lol

Every once in a while big Hollywood studios try to pretend they like to make cheap B-movies, which usually leads to projects that can't really decide what they want to be. With that in mind the original "Piranha 3D" was surprisingly good, but this one bails on entertainment value and just goes for really obvious, easy jokes. David Hasselhoff as a lifeguard? I'm sure that got a chuckle at the board meeting, but dear Lord don't actually film it. Everything about this script is just lazy. Ever since "Jaws" creature features are obliged to have that one character that ignores the threat for his own financial gain, but here it makes even less sense than usual. The waterpark owner KNOWS there are piranhas in the nearby lake he's getting his water from, going as far as to bribe cops on a regular basis to keep it secret. The chances of a piranha-related bloodbath are roughly 99.9%, but hey he made investments or something so let's move on. What kind of a setting is a waterpark anyway, how long does it take to get out of a pool? Not very long apparently, so the last 10 minutes consists of a fake-looking blooper reel that's clearly just there to pad out the running time (and it's still only 83 minutes, not that I'm complaining). I've said it before but I just want to emphasise it: this thing is bafflingly lazy. If even the combined talents of Christopher Lloyd, Ving Rhames AND Gary Busey can't give your movie one entertaining scene, you're doing fundamental things wrong. Nearly unwatchable.

Well, this movie is really bad, why did they make a sequel? I don't know I guess it's to make money and that was really dumb of them to do. To me I like Piranha 3D for what it did. But this movie is so dumb, The acting is really really awful. The people in this movie is so dumb, it was ridiculous. Silent Hill: Revelation was worse, but I feel this movie is the same way. Again, what did we do Hollywood? Nothing but it feels like we have to sit and watch this, oh wow.... I guess there is one good thing about the movie and it's the effects on the piranha's, other than that nothing else, I feel like we will have to see stupid sequels like this. People I have talk too and none of them like this crap, and now I know why. Overall, a ridiculous dumb stupid awful movie, that's all I have to say.
