Good intentions ... gone bad(?)
kosmasp17 August 2022
No pun intended - and I don't know if you feel that the intentions are. From a moral standpoint you may understand the frustration - but the way to go about it? There is a justice system - not that it works every time. Maybe you feel it does not work at all for or against certain people. Especially when they are powerful - it is almost impossible to get someone indicted or into prison when they are rich and/or have a lot of influence.

The movie is not easy to watch - and the justice seeking (if you want to call it that) main character is also not really likeable. On the other hand you have all those cliche guys she goes up against ... there is not much salvation here - no pun intended. Still it can be fun to watch if you are aware of all the flaws and just let it all flow.

"Oh My God! He Punked Me In My Noggin!"...
azathothpwiggins2 September 2021
Summer (Christy Oldham), a sex line operator, has had her fill of weirdos, sickos, and psychos. Unbeknownst to some of her more criminally-minded customers, Summer has been recording some of their more illegal confessions.

Deciding to take the law into her own hands, Summer sets out on a mission to rid the world of these dangerous perverts.

One-by-one they fall.

BARRACUDA is an off-kilter comedy / revenge film. Ms. Oldham is quite convincing in her hyper-angry role. As disturbing as the subject matter might be, the absurd humor is insane enough to make the whole story more of a ludicrous romp.

Not for everyone -the person I watched it with thought it was terrible- but I thought it was a riot...

A sad reality in modern film.
tracedwards7 December 2019
I dont even care to look up who the writer and director of this crap movie are.

The story is about a bunch of rapists and pedos being exposed by an ex phone sex line worker. Its total garbage. The acting is beyond terrible. It cant even be considered humerious.

0 of 10 is a generous rating.

I loved it
tomzy-0060228 July 2022
Contrary to other reports, I absolutely loved it, it was something different and there were plenty of laughs, pay-backs and justice metered.

The movie is based on a real story and in my opinion the acting was pretty darn good.

I've watched some crap in my time (77 years!) and this was way up in the stakes of something I would probably watch again before I die, here's hoping I have another 20 years!

I can tell you that it's way ahead of JAWS 3D! Haaar haaa.
