PLOT Produced by Roger Corman and directed by a young Joe Dante, the Piranha is an original film lively and spirited, perhaps the most brilliant of the clones derived from the massive success of Spielberg's Jaws. Among its strengths there are some special effects, save for the time. The idea to remake it with more sophisticated means of today and the use of three dimensions was not so farfetched.
A deal was one of the hottest names of the new horror, Alexandre Aja, who after a brilliant high-voltage was moved to the U.S. indulging in a serial fashion remake of the famous footage of the horror titles (before this, The Hills Have eyes and Mirrors). The plot is substantially different from that of the film Dante, eliminating any reference to "political" and giving carnivores a natural origin fish, not dependent on experiments prohibited. An underwater earthquake free in the waters of Lake Victoria a voracious horde of prehistoric piranhas - called Pygocentrus - which do damage suffered by devouring an unlucky fisherman. In
holiday town on the shores of the lake is preparing a big party and they all have in mind to have fun, especially the boys. The director Derek Jones is there to turn the shooting erotic hires Jake, a young-looking place a bit of 'unlucky, because the guide's face during filming. For him it is a kind of heaven on earth, given the number of buxom women on board the yacht of the director, even if it puts a bit 'in trouble with Kelly, her friend for whom he secretly have a crush. Jake's mother, Julie Forester, is a tough chick: it is the sheriff of the town. Together with his assistant Fallon (Ving Rhames), is responsible for researching the fisherman mysteriously disappeared: they find his body stripped and wonder what might have reduced it. I will soon find out, but that does not diminish their troubles.
Aja keeps a steady pace and makes it interesting and funny the first part of the film, using shades of comedy and youthful injecting a strong dose of good-natured eroticism. Keep this bold and carefree approach also when fish killers enter heavily in the scene, first suggested by any hint of suspense hitchcokiana and then exhibited in large quantities with good quality digital special effects that make a show within the show. In the carnage that characterized the second half of the film, Aja relies to a very dense and fierce splatter it right, here and there a touch sarcastic, original and visually, like the piranha that comes from the head of a girl or slaughters the fate of the director " transgressive. "
addition, Aja knows how to handle the suspense and the final crescendo develops a voltage more than acceptable, thanks to the brevity of the story, which knows no delays or downtime. Vivacity and brilliance can not hide the risaputezza But the story that repeats for the umpteenth time already seen situations and magazines, with little in-depth characters are stereotypes, left to the skill - if any - of the individual actors.
In this respect, the experts point out Elisabeth Shue (now further down the time of nomination for an Oscar for Leaving Las Vegas, but still good) and the solid Ving Rhames. In a small role is also revise Christopher Lloyd (Back to the Future). Nice special interests for the directors Eli Roth (Hostel) and Franck Khalfoun (P2 - Level of terror) and Richard Dreyfuss, a pioneer of horror with water shark.
