A masterpiece in filmmaking, that still hasn't aged 45 years later.

Jaws is a masterpiece. It is what shaped my love for movies, and it has been an influence on me for most of my life, since I watched it. I've seen Jaws about seven or eight times. It is beautifully filmed, strongly acted, has a great story, and great direction from the astonishing Steven Spielberg. Last but not least, that great rubber shark that I just love. The film is from 1975 and had really no way to use CGI. So they masterfully used practical effects, though it was painstaking, and in the end it looked amazing. Robert Shaw's, Quint, Roy Scheider's, Chief Brody, Richard Dreyfuss's, Matt Hooper, John William's amazingly, suspenseful score, and the shark attacks, really did their job to make people not want to go back into the water. This made this horror movie one of the best ever to hit the silver screen. Not only for the movie industry, but for the people who watched it and were moved.
