Club Las Piranjas

The original made for TV movie "Club Las Piranjas" from 1995 was a Satire on club tourism and was perfectly describing Holiday with mandatory fun and pseudo entertaining guides. The guests were not allowed to leave and were forced to join the "fun" offered by Edwin and Biggi. The Story had an end. So what does this follow up has to offer?

Not much basically. While there are a few nice jokes, nice Location on Mauritius and it is good to see Hape Kerkeling, Angelika Milster and Judy Winter to reprise their roles again but besides a few characters (the son of Edwin was mentioned briefly in the original movie) and the name of the hotel, there is nothing that resembles the original movie. In fact it is just a regular sitcom that is set in a hotel. The same Formular would work for every show that does not have a Name from the 1990s. Here we have no forced fun, no prison-like Environment and Nothing that would resemble Satire. Many new plot Elements are taken off but not really cleared, especially regarding the main point, the wedding of Edwin's illegitimate son Björn and the estate of his mother Renate. The Connections come so fast and you can't really relate to that. Why making it a follow-up if you don't really recreate any connections?

It is a Sequel that is just a small waste of time and a sequel that unobody needed. Stick to the original movie and enjoy it.
