Movie review - "Piranachonda" (2011) **

So-so sci fi mash up which is done with professionalism but lacks flair - genuine scares, or sexiness, or genuine cleverness. The bar is low I know - I just felt Wynorski would hve done a better job in the 1980s. There's not that much creature stuff - most of the storyline involves kidnappers.

The "name" Michael Madsen looks unhealthy.  Rib Hillis and Terri Ivens are very good as the main heroic duo - solid action stars.  Shandi Finnessey is a lot of fun as a starlet. Rachel Hunter pops up in a small role.

The Hawaiian locations are pleasing.
