Sadly Over-hyped

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

I think everybody over a certain age will be familiar with Steven Spielberg's 70s thriller 'Jaws', and the majority will have seen it at least once in their lifetime. To many people, this is one of the first titles that comes to mind when thinking of classic and iconic films - it's instantly recognisable and contains many memorable scenes and lines.There's no question that 'Jaws' is one of the best suspense thrillers of its time. The way the films builds up and sustains tension throughout is masterful and it genuinely has you gripped from start to finish. Perhaps it isn't as impactful in the modern day as it was when it was released, party because of the development of CGI and special effects, but make no mistake, 'Jaws' is a classic and a film everybody should see.

Jaws always had his mouth open, why didn't they just toss a live grenade in his mouth, instead of torquing around with this bully fish? Aside from that thought, this is the real deal, folks. Drama, suspense, and horror all melded into one. Stevens best movie, thanks, Steven. You are forgiven for everything you made past 1989 until now!

Jaws was the first film to do many things- the first 100 million grosser, the first blockbuster, the film that made Steven Spielberg into a household name. This film has entered pop culture lexicon and is just about a great movie that everyone has at least heard of. The fine thing about Jaws is that the shark isn't really the villain- the bureaucracies of the small town, the mayor- the human elements are the true villainous element which Speilberg so adroitly makes us ponder about, at least in the first half. Of course there is a shark and the chase by three men is the highlight filled with great monologues and fantastic sequences. If you haven't yet (shockingly) please see Jaws.

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