This is my number 1 movie of all time

Rating: 10/10 (19 October 2017)

I never tire of this movie, it just takes me away. I can't remember when I actually first saw the whole movie probably early 80s when we got out first VHS player. For me this is a movie that's grown over time and lost none of what makes a genuinely great movie experience. I remember hearing people talking about it in 75 when I was in primary school and was desperate to see it. It was worth the wait
So many quotable lines, the charm of Amity Island oh how I wish I had the money to visit there. In the 90's I actually took an American girl out to dinner who spent her summers at her grans house in Martha's Vineyard she would regale me with stories of life there.
Spielberg really hit the mark with this three men in a boat experience you just can't beat just simple cinematography and atmosphere of them sitting around swapping injury stories and singing show me the way to go home before it all kicks off.

Chief Brody: Drowning!
