Jaws is most definitely an awesome film. It has a giant great white shark terrorising the resort town of Amity. And it takes some brave men to try and kill it. Even then they dont all survive the encounter. Its simple and effective and Steven Spielbergs direction creates some tense sequences that make you genuinely afraid to go into the water. So how they managed Jaws 2 and Jaws 3D is beyond me. Surely this is another case of lightning in a bottle? Each sequel got progressively worse, to the point when the shark wasnt so frightening anymore. Certainly not as frightening as he was in that first masterpiece. And then we have the final Jaws film, Jaws: The Revenge. It has revenge in the title because it turns out the unkillable great white shark (or is it a long line of killer sharks in the shark family?) are out for revenge against Brody and his family. Yes. This hulking terror of the seas now has the intelligence to target Brodys family. Shakespeare this isnt. Its a film about a great white shark eating people. And not a very good one.
