  Review by SilentDawn ★★★★½ 7

  85

  Featuring Jerry O'Connell as a softcore porn director, Ving Rhames as a shotgun-wielding sheriff, and Christopher Lloyd as a master scientist with a specialty in piranhas. Totally bananas, standing tall over overt 'bad-movie' parody and flying right in the face of overt comedic digressions. This movie is hilarious and batshit, but never against the film's own wishes, and definitely not in defiance of the film's supreme craft. The final act is full of bursting jugulars in balletic motion, and the tension is immense. And for the blood-red cherry on top, Greg Nicotero's effects are gnarly and vicious in ways that hardly any gorefest has topped in this decade. So many skeletons with their eyeballs intact. Iconic.

  I remember when I first watched this and I watched with my younger cousins with my mom in the room and the guy’s dick got bitten off and floated in the water and my cousin laughed and was like “omg look at his finger” and all I could do was awkward smile (PS my awkward smile looks exactly like this)

  The final twenty minutes are completely bonkers and worth the wait.

  Big ass fish, crazy gore, Christopher Lloyd for about ten seconds and a severed penis make for a surprisingly good time!

  Review by Josh Lewis ★★★ 3

  Occasionally dips a bit too much into the self-aware garishness and bro-y obnoxiousness of its era even for my taste but the Big Set piece is undeniably one of the best of its kind. So many gleefully disgusting details it genuinely becomes hard to keep track of them over the course of 30 minutes. I'm personally partial to the dude who in order to save himself starts running over dozens of swimmers with his boat chopping them into bits, and who eventually catches a woman's hair in the propeller and proceeds to tear her scalp/face right off. The 3D shot of a dismembered penis with a big old bite chomp taken out of it is pretty good too. The knowledge that this has an Eli Roth cameo should tell you whether it's for you or not.

  This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

  awful male characters having their genitals eaten by ravenous, prehistoric creatures is something we don’t see enough of in cinema. 

  every ounce of feminism i had in my body left for the 88 minute runtime of this. it’s obvious why many consider it to be a bad film but i’m a sucker for gory, over the top, insane movies. so i enjoy this one for what it is, and it never pretends it’s nothing it’s not. the acting was watchable for the most part. the story is nothing special, but it can be truly fun to watch if you’re into watching dozens upon dozens of people be killed by not only the titular fish but other means as well.

  Review by Lou (rhymes with wow!) ★★★★ 8

  A batshit insane aquatic horror flick with lots of over-the-top springbreak antics, nasty gore and b̶o̶o̶b̶i̶e̶s̶* awesome cameos (Richard Dreyfuss, Christopher Lloyd and Eli Roth to name a few). This is guaranteed the most fun you will have watching people get devoured by carnivorous fish.

  *Well, those too of course.
