A true horror classic! two thumbs up - Jaws Reviews
Jaws is a story about a man eating shark, a shark that eats tears and completly devours teens who are skinny dipping. However don't be misleaded by the the slasher title "Jaws." the film is as haunting as it is well acted.
Roy Schieder, Richard Dreyfuss, (who is so perfect in his drug years) and of course the unforgetable Robert Shaw who is literally unstopable in his portrayal of a shark hunter.
Steven Speilburg's direction of the film is unbelieveable. he masterfully crafts every intense line and grotesque chomp that the shark takes. The underwater shots were an eerie add in that were very intense and suspenseful in the opening sequence
A note to parents if the film were made today it would recieve a PG-13 rating. The film shows gallons of blood ozzing from the water after the attacks this film. It is not meant for youngsters and I would recommend every parent to tell there young children that they are going to be watching a scary movie and a tamer gorier one at that.
All in all "Jaws" is a classic swiftly and quickly moving from each scene to next creating senses of disturbence and fright. I give this film 4 stars and a ticket home under the covers away from the beach.
