Justly famous for inventing summer blockbusters, and it's still one of the best. Everyone involved is at the top of their game, delivering a high-octane, crowd-pleasing film that's captivating from the first scene to the last. (Although I've always wondered why that one kid's mom is clearly 60 or so.)

Lifts shirt to reveal hernia scar, thinks better of it. Nobody told Quint he wasn't in a musical. Anybody catch the shooting stars in the background? Somebody told me that they were a reference to ET, which hadn't even been made yet. I assumed that this same person was being catfished by somebody using pics of Alexis Texas and it turned out it was actually her. I don't know what to believe anymore. That whole episode had Spielberg levels of roller coaster tension!

Steven Spielberg 's "Jaws"(1975) is the greatest B-movie ever made, and a piece of cinematic history. The first summer blockbuster ever was a shark attack movie. Arguably one of the greatest movies ever is a simple well-written suspenseful story about the horrors a monstrous shark inflicts on a small beach town. The thing that elevates this film above average monster movie schlock is just how well done practically every aspect of the movie is, with examples being the characters and iconic score.

Famously igniting the explosion of blockbusters, Spielberg's tale of a voracious shark is off to a brilliant start. In the first half, less is more. The pace is quick, the storytelling and building of dread masterful. Once we get onto sea, though, the movie slows down and while the performances leave nothing to be desired, the shark itself, in all its animatronic horror, regrettably does. Seeing it is just not scary. At all. The score, however...

A sad state of affairs when such a clumsily handled work can become a blockbuster. Bad direction, worse acting. What Spielberg does not realize is that the audience should see the shark CONSTANTLY; so often in fact that its appearance should almost become commonplace so that we are truly frightened when it eats someone. Let me not get started on the horrible joke of a score Williams handed in. A few notes is not a score. Far inferior to the ahead-of-its-time classic Jaws 3D-- Armond White Jr.

I'm sorry, it needs to be said, Jaws is overrated. I can definitely see why it is so well renowned, and considered a masterpiece, but honestly, I considered it to be a bore. Jaws was extremely well done, even in todays standards, and has quite a number of suspenseful moments, but all in all it seemed rather dull.

It launched a whole genre. Great tension buildup with local politics and not revealing the shark too early. Memorable characters. Iconic sound. I'm not really into shark movies. The only downside is that the shark didn't look real out of the water, but it's not like I've seen a live shark attack a boat. Some dumb decisions by the 3. Fav scene: whose idea was it to send the least actiony guy into the shark cage?

One of the best horror films ever made, and one of the best films made period. Say what you will about it, one can't deny the impact it had on the world's view of water. All of the leads are excellent and spot on, and the scares are directed and executed very well and the ending is phenomenal. I can't really pick anything I dislike about it.

Spielberg perfects his niche for storytelling with the first Blockbuster. The accidental genius is from the failure of the shark to work during production forcing him to place the terror in the unseen, which works so much better. Ridley played this to intentional perfection in 1977's Alien. The characters are what Speilberg shines at and they do shine brightly here. A happy accident that has prevented me from swimming in the ocean ever since.

With excellent character development, a pitch-perfect delivery of mounting intrigue, and a hell of a climactic showdown that will have every viewer silent on the edge of their seat, Jaws proves to be one of the greatest thrillers ever created -- a blueprint for all movies to follow it in how to achieve true visceral suspense. Absolute must-see entertainment for fans of Spielberg, monster flicks, and just about everyone looking for a scary good time.

A great summer blockbuster. I think Roy Scheider's reaction to seeing the shark for the first time is one of the best reactions of sheer surprise and terror I've ever seen. It's comical but at the same time completely genuine. Also it has a fantastic score by John Williams.

Great directing, score, location...the perfect storm of awesomeness. And perhaps my favorite acting job of all-time as Robert Shaw OWNS the Quint character. I've seen this movie more times than any other. "You got city hands, Mr. Hooper. Been countin' money all yer life!" This movie--along with "The Empire Strikes Back"--are the only two movies that have made me reconsider my "No Movie Gets a 100" policy.

A simple monster movie that Spielberg made before anybody knew who he was. Still holds up very well after all these years, and for an appropriately simple reason: Robert Shaw is a bit much, but everything else works like a charm. In particular, excellent performance from Roy Scheider as a not terribly macho but dedicated small-town cop. Even then, Spielberg was smart enough to pay attention to characterization, humor, etc. instead of focusing on GRIM AND UNRELENTING all the time

I saw bits and pieces of this so many times before I actually sat down and watched it front to back that I already knew the whole thing before that point. It's my mom's favorite film, and has become one of my favorite Spielbergs. It's easy to see the far-reaching influence it had in essentially creating the summer blockbuster, but beyond that, it's just fantastic entertainment, with memorable characters, extraordinary dialogue and one of the great movie villains: a big fucking shark.

Created the summer blockbuster, which now assaults us in all seasons, but the sheer craftsmanship here is undeniable and a far cry from the event films made today. Spielberg took a junk book and transformed it into a first rate thriller that's aided immeaurably by Williams' menacingly minimalist score, whose insistent pounding really ramps up the tension. Scheider, Dreyfuss and Shaw have great chemistry, and there are a number of suspenseful sequences that rank with the best of their genre.

This film is the master at creating suspense and it's probably one of Spielberg's best movies. Some truly memorable dialogue that I can still quote accurately to this day.

This is a good movie, but the first half on land pales when compared to the excellent second half on the boat. The whole "you can't close down the beach even though the shark has already killed two people because we'll lose money" thing was overly familiar, predictable and kind of tedious. It's not all bad and I did quite enjoy the first hour of the movie as I was watching it, but in retrospect it ranks several tiers below the second hour.

Am I weird in thinking that the first half is better than the second? I mean, I really enjoy both Quint and Hooper--and believe that the dialogue in general is great--but when it becomes more adventure/action oriented, it also becomes more whimsical from a soundtrack perspective, which cut a lot of tension for me. Didn't find it THAT exciting. However, the first half when it was just a straight up horror movie (w/ some comedy), complete with a looming dread, is wonderful.

The deftness in the way Spielberg blocks a scene is truly admirable, and I highly recommend watching 'The Spielberg Oner' essay on youtube. The film later descends into silly, somewhat meandering action territory, but all in all, a pretty sweet classic.

What sets Jaws apart from most thriller/horror movies is not the practical effects, fantastic as though they are, nor is it the nail-biting tension. It is not even the common fear: water and the open ocean, which is played on throughout the film. What sets Jaws above and beyond are its characters. Spielberg has always been a humanist at heart but no film better exemplifies this than Jaws. Each relevant character has their own point of view which inform their place in both the plot and the story.

It's weird that it's taken me so long to see one of the most iconic movies ever made. It's well-made and has better characters than I expected. The inventiveness of things like the underwater camera have less impact since they've been copied and parodied a billion times, but it was still cool to see how it was originally done. All in all, a solid movie that doesn't quite measure up to its legacy because of some seriously boring stretches.

I've worked on a fishing boat and dealing with big fish that aren't out to kill you can get a little dicey.

Believe it or not, it took me until the end of 2010 to see this classic horror film. I was expecting something really dated and cheesy and was pleasantly surprised by how effective and suspenseful this is. Obviously, it's not as scary today as it probably was to a 1970s audience, but it really is quite a thrilling ride. I agree with most everyone that the second hour at sea is superior to the first hour on land, but taken together it's definitely one of Spielberg's best.

Spielberg's finest moment as a visual artist, and one of the most exciting, fun and scary movies ever made. Come for the shark, stay for the characters.

I give most of the credit to the three main actors in the roles they were made for, that iconic music, and tasteful direction for material that could so easily have been made cheap and stupid (for example, see every sequel in this series).

I liked it. Creater of "Blockbuster" and "Summer Hit" "genres", but yeah, a little cheesy for today. Still a good watch though.

One of my favorite movies. This succeeds in every front; the actors and their characters are intresting, the rythm of the film is perfect and the story is very traditional. I don't think Spielberg is able to do such a movie anymore.

Jaws is the original Summer Blockbuster--it's basically perfection as far as those types of films go. I happen to enjoy my Summer Blockbusters, though, so it's hard not to absolutely love this. The cast is amazing and the suspense is fantastic.

Just because I give a movie a 100 doesn't mean I think it is perfect. No movie can be. Jaws is extremely close to perfect. Probably as close as one can be. It embodies all the spirits of the cinema, and is endlessly enjoyable. Sorry this review has no jokes!

Groundbreaking when it came out, now it just seems a bit villainous concerning the depiction of sharks as man-eaters.

You know he said if he could go back and remake this movie he wouldnt, cause it scared too many people of sharks. Never has a movie effected people for generations like Jaws has. Even if you havent seen it.

Very good movie with superb acting and a good and believable story. The tension is built very well and you get dragged into the story, it never let's you go. Some Steven spielberg magic here.

Great build-up, and an equally great payoff. Even more enjoyable are the small moments the fill up the movie, like Brodie's miming with his son and the fantastic speech about the U.S.S. Indianapolis.

No other film has stuck with me like Jaws has in terms of effectiveness. I saw it when I was 6 and still to this day I will not go a certain distance in the ocean due to this movie. But other than being my favorite horror movie it also offers great performances from all.

Still stands as one of the great thrillers and on of the great action/adventure movies of all time. Barely a shot or a mistep in Spielberg's second theatrical feature, it well deserves its classic reputation

Great movie. Especially good is the dialogue between the three main characters. Highly recommended. (and yes, I did not feel very comfortable going into the ocean after seeing this! )
