A testament to one of the true classics.

Rating: 10/10 (8 April 2000)

Skip so-called horror movies, Spielberg knows how to work the scare factor. Not since I saw Jurassic Park in the theater have I so squirmed and jumped around in my seat from fear -- and I saw Jaws for the first time at home (thank goodness).
I was also fortunate to have seen the wide-screen version of Spielberg's masterpiece. From the underwater photography, usage of a real shark, and poetic justice in the sharp script to the well drawn and acted characters, and the gripping emotional connections in every moment, this movie is excellent.
