Movie Reviews of Jaws - The Revenge
Movie Review: Jaws 3 VS. Jaws 4, hopefully the 5th and final sequel
Summary: 5 Stars
Jaws is simply the greatest monster movie, and it is also a great film on many levels, and considering its worldwide notoriety, I wont go off on that tangent.
Jaws 2 is simply a low grade remake.
I have the distinct pleasure in saying that I have seen all the Jaws movies at the theater, some of them on opening day. As a fan of sharks and movies, its an addition I suppose considering that I have also rented everything at Blockbuster that has a shark on the cover or in the title. My expertise on the genre is admittedly self proclaimed, but if I get some business cards stating as such, maybe my following review with have greater credence.
Jaws 3 is a very bad movie. Starting with the writing, production, acting, horrific 3D effects and most notably, a waste of a big shark gone amuck in Sea World. The hope that the shark will take control of the park is the only redeming value of the story, but that is dashed. Why didnt the shark eat at least 4 of those show waterskiers? Because it is a very bad movie. The shark is right behind them when they fall, but they get out of the water just in time. The opportunity to turn the Jaws movies into a dynasty was destroyed here. Let the shark feed and live in a controlled habitat. Up until 2004, there had never been a great white shark held in captivity for more than two weeks. This movie could have served as a platform for shark observation and debauchery. This movie could have allowed the importance of shark preservation to be its theme, while showing numerous attacks of workers accidently falling into the water, the shark occassionally breaking out or maybe the brakes fail on a tour bus and it flies into the lagoon. Now thats entertainment with numerous possiblities. But noooo!
Jaws 4 on the other hand at the very least has good people eating scenes. Granted this shark has issues and the motivation of the shark to seek revenge against the Brody family is laughable, it does at least provide laughs. And I suppose some food for thought, sharks are people too. It also provides Micheal Caine falling for Mrs. Brody, proving there is life after the unfortanate loss of Chief (shark killer) Brody, as well as letting us witness the grown Brody kid get eaten. The special effects are better than Jaws 3, and the attacks are more frequent. Shark movies need to have shark attacks, and Jaws 4 delivers. I give this 5 stars as only a comparison to Jaws 3, when compared to Jaws it gets ZERO.
Sure its disappointing that the shark gets blown up in the original film, but this is argueably the only movie that is better than the book.
