Great!

Rating: 10/10 (7 May 1999)

Through the power of suggestion, Steven Spielberg made Jaws one of the best scare films ever. It's probably a good thing that the shark didn't work half the time, since in certain parts it doesn't look that convincing. Apart from that, what makes Jaws so much fun to watch over and over again is the amount of time that Spielberg invests with his three main characters. One of the best sequences is the second attack. Brody slowly starts moving toward the pond, but his panic increases and he explodes into a full run. Pushing this along is John Williams' score that will forever be implanted in your mind. The film reaches a palm sweating climax as the three shark hunters pursue, and get pursued by the shark. Great movie that spawned three inferior sequels.
