Just when you thought it was safe to hate a movie Jaws came out. This is one of the greatest classics of cinema. Amity a town that depends on it's beach to bring tourists has a problem. A huge 20 + foot shark is roaming it's waters searching for food. After a girl is killed by the shark police chief Brody tries to shut the beaches down but the local government stops him. Then more evidence that there is a shark in their waters is found. So Brody calls the help of a shark expert Matt Hooper to help prove his case. Along with the help of Quint an old captain they go in search for the shark. Steven Spielberg does a great job on directing this movie. He creates great sequences of suspense and the camera angles are great when an attack is about to occur. Good acting performances by Roy Schneider, Richard Dreyfuss and Robert Shaw make this movie even more enjoyable. The music by John Williams is great as well. All up this is a good movie to watch with good effects for the time. I give it a 9/10.
