Detractors be damned, this movie rocks...

Rating: 10/10 (3 February 2003)

I first saw "Jaws" when I was only 6 years old, and not one other movie has taken its place as my all time favorite. What's not to love? Since everyone else has given the pros (and there are tons) I won't go into it....but for those people who liked Deep Blue Sea better, get your heads out of your asses. Deep Blue Sea and every other modern action crapfest from Jerry Bruckheimer should look at Jaws and learn what a real action movie is all about. Effects only work if there's strong characterisation to back it up, and on that, Jaws delivers in spades. Jaws broke the mold for its day, and nothing in recent memory tops it. A+++
