Movie Reviews of Jaws (30th Anniversary Edition)
Movie Review: Excitement Abounds
Summary: 4 Stars
I have all the Jaws movies. Exciting movie to watch and my kind of movies. I also love the background music as that also helps add to the excitement of the movie. It also prepares people for when they go into the oceans to swim. Thank heavens I can't swim. I'd most likely be the one to be attacked by a shark. The acting was very good and the scenery too. The mayor in my opinion, although he was suppose to be on the negative side to make money for the town, was very dislike by me. He had the kind of face profile that even turned me off, although he may be a very nice person. Once scene that I had a problem with was where the great white jumped onto the boat and the guy slid into his mouth. Hard to believe something like that would or could happen.
Summary of Jaws (30th Anniversary Edition)
In the vastly overrated 1998 book Easy Riders, Raging Bulls, author Peter Biskind puts the blame for Hollywood's blockbuster mentality at least partially on Steven Spielberg's box-office success with this adaptation of Peter Benchley's bestselling novel. But you can't blame Spielberg for making a terrific movie, which Jaws definitely is. The story of a Long Island town whose summer tourist business is suddenly threatened by great-white-shark attacks on humans bypasses the potboiler trappings of Benchley's book and goes straight for the jugular with beautifully crafted, crowd-pleasing sequences of action and suspense supported by a trio of terrific performances by Roy Scheider (as the local sheriff), Richard Dreyfuss (as a shark specialist), and particularly Robert Shaw (as the old fisherman who offers to hunt the shark down). The sequences on Shaw's boat--as the three of them realize that in fact the shark is hunting them--are what entertaining moviemaking is all about. --Marshall FineAction & Adventure DVD Video
