Piranha 3D Blu-ray Review

Score: 65

from 2 reviewers

Review Date:

Piranha 3D is a tasteless yet entertaining romp with excellent 3D effects and high-powered lossless audio, marred only by missing extras.

Piranha 3D" on Blu-ray delivers a highly enjoyable, vibrant, and strong 1080p/MPEG-4 3D transfer with impressively planned post-production conversion. Colors remain sharp, textures realistic, and depth strong throughout despite minor issues like ghosting and overly dark blacks in some sequences.

Audio: 72

With an aggressive and immersive DTS-HD MA 5.1 lossless soundtrack, 'Piranha 3D' delivers robust sonic activity, deftly handling water elements, action effects, and environmental atmospherics. The surround sound channels are consistently used to create an engaging auditory experience that suits the film perfectly.

Extra: 56

The Blu-ray extras for *Piranha 3D* are a mixed bag: the comprehensive 2-hour documentary delves deeply into the film's production, while the commentary track offers humorous and candid insights from Alexandre Aja and team. However, the 3D version disappointingly lacks key features available on the 2D release.

Movie: 71

"Piranha 3D" successfully embraces its exploitative roots with a blend of excessive bloodshed, scantily-clad women, and humor, making it a grotesque yet playful homage to classic horror tropes, ideal for viewers who appreciate satirical gore and nudity without requiring deep storytelling.
