English title: Piranha 3D
After a series of underwater tremors releases about prehistoric fish devours men in Lake Victoria. There, a group of strangers must join forces to avoid the food from those 'sweet' creatures. One such person (Elisabeth Shue) have a unique opportunity to save the lake and your family from being devoured. She will have to risk everything to destroy itself piranhas.
If we go back again to the official trailer and if we review the classic directed by Joe Dante come to the conclusion that this film is what it promises many tits, ass, blood and all those ingredients we'll never see in a movie "serious", but if we're in this film to see the name of Alexandre Aja we realize that we are above all a gorefest as he only knows how, the honorable member of the Splat Pack once surprised us with his great Haute Tension, reinventing its bloody The Hills Have E yes and we were disappointed with his regular Mirrors returns to the fray once again with his third remake in which he shouts in his face: I'm back!.
films Alexandre Aja will never be worthy of an Oscar but about who cares when the French director reminds us that cinema is not just entertainment, well, your way. Piranha 3D builds on the original film's story where an earthquake between tectonic plates of a lake in Arizona where deep down hundreds of prehistoric piranhas are ready to devour everything in their way, the detail is is that as every year is celebrated on the Spring-Break where desperate young massively attend a good time in the company of much alcohol and sex, the sheriff of the people Julie Forester must avoid at all costs the slaughter to come.
As usual in films of Aja, the story takes a little time to develop a bit of history without leaving aside the blood and forth between piranhas escape before it gets to where their next victims of the film takes a bit so that we can sympathize a little with his characters, something we have to thank Pete Goldfinger and Josh Stolberg film writers who replaced the usual Grégory Aja Levasseur regular partner. For that to be a Type B film it is taken very seriously even if its history we know that everything is pure recocha but once we see the piranhas attack Alex's work at its best gore, much gore in the style of Braindead, the water turns red to give us one of the bloodiest scenes he has been able to give birth cinema in recent years, all enlivened with excellent makeup and effects that make the audience squirm of disgust and horror at seeing mutilated limbs and blood spurts.
is amazing how a movie like this has no hateful character, it's the very same hate Jerry O'Connell is a very special and is responsible to release all the laughs, the characters on the other clichés are so necessary in this film that make them so important even though we know that will not last until the end and we care for them. Our heroine of the film is Elisabeth Shue with a strong and very determined character is the star of the film, with her impressive but short cameos see Eli Roth, Christopher Lloyd and Richard Dreyfuss who give an air of nostalgia to the tape. Finally I have to say that the two child stars had a pretty fun thing to share thanks and that infants are always troublesome in this type of film.
From Haute Tension Alxandre Aja knew I was going to become one of my favorite directors, the effectiveness with which records the most savage of the scenes and as no self-censorship when it comes to direct were the qualities that led me to worship immensely, and is that bad as was his previous film Mirrors, the film boasted a completely heartbreaking scene. This guy has stopped spreading of the remake fever took advantage of this boom to greatly exceed their versions to the originals in all aspects of updating and giving his personal seal, a proof of this was well achieved the scene of the slaughter in which the effects were so perfect that it looked like a scene from real life. Aja Bravo who has demonstrated once again its savagery, but the tagline of 3D was not just an excuse to raise more money by being a very good fake 3D, Piranha 3D is just as great in 2D, another downside would animation and design of the piranhas, a shame that they look so false.
I'm loving these films if they are well made and honest with the public. Piranha 3D like never amused me, long ago he saw a horror movie so funny and gory as this really made me see there is still hope for this genre as abused, and Alex Aja has made to resume again the confidence he had.
A film full of tits, ass, a penis and blood 3D cais those that are extinct and are made only for fun.
Rating: 8.5/10
