Steven Spielberg's Jaws

Rating: 9/10 (7 October 2013)

Steven Spielberg's Jaws is a sensationally effective action picture, a scary thriller that works all the better because it's populated with characters that have been developed with human beings we got to know and care about. It's a film that's as frightening as ''The Exorcist'', and yet it's a nicer kind of fright, somehow more fun because we're being scared by an outdoor-adventure saga instead of by a brimstone-and-vomit devil. The plot is good enough and the shark looks good. Its one of the greatest horror thrillers ever made, and three sequels plus one unofficial sequel was released. The movie is the best shark movie ever made and it won 3 Oscars.
