We're gonna need a bigger boat.

Rating: Null/10 (17 August 2000)

This is classic Speilberg prior to diverting to family films. Growing up as a surfer in Australia, this is not the type of film that I would expect to be attracted to. However, the masterful suspense and tension draw me back time and time again. Not only is the mis-en-scene raw and unpolished but it is at the same time slick in only the way directors seem to be able to accomplish in their youth. Under no circumstances watch this film whilst on holidays at the beach or you won't go in the water.
