Wonderful character development!

ridiculous rating

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Best part for me was the three of them drinking on the boat and joking about scars. "Mary Ellen Moffit, broke my heart, hahahahahah" "Don't tell me don't tell me-----'mother' hahahahaha" Laughing with Hoopers!

Jaws is about a summer town who has a shark problem. They send a boat filled with a fisher, chief of Police and a shark expert.Jaws is an outstanding movie. It is probably one of the best hour movies of all time. The acting was great. Roy Schneider as Brody was a great choice. He was a great hero. Robert Shaw was the perfect character. He was mean and funny at the same time. Richard Dreyfus was a great Hooper. He was a serious guy that cared about the shark problem. When the shark didn't work the film was almost better. It was cool to see you get scared when you don't even see the victim. Also the cinematography was great. The shots right on the water where great. When they went under water it was like you where the shark.Jaws is a great film. Spielberg's best to me.

Like "The Usual Suspects", I need to give this movie another try. On AMC, I saw 40 minutes of this movie, in a 3 hour airtime. I tried to enjoy it, but I was bored. That's really the only reason I couldn't keep going. I was waiting for the sharkto show up, but I heard afterwards that the shark takes a while to show up. Most people already know the plot, that it's about a family getting hunted down by a shark. Moving on...this is another review that is invalid for now, as I will one day rewatch it, and see it it all. But for now...you don't need a bigger boat for me, I'll stay on shore.

Spielberg's directing lesson is a great film. It informs you about the character and the milestone without talking about it.
