Summary: That Must Be One Smart Shark!
Review: The shark is able to follow Mrs. Brody all the way from the New England coastline to the Bahamas after she flees the area (by plane)following the shark's killing of her youngest son. The shark must be very proficient at geography. It must also be somewhat different from other sharks in other respects as it is my understanding (and I could be wrong) that sharks are cold-blooded and unable to survive in a warm ocean environment such as the Caribbean. The shark also must have a somewhat different digestion system as it was able to eat ALL of Michael Caine's airplane. YES, all of it in one large swallow.

Folks, if you can accept such absurd plot elements, be my guest and buy this film. If you are more discriminating, however, and prefer to have the plot and story elements immersed in logic, then stay FAR, FAR, away. Buy the original "Jaws" instead. That was the only one worth seeing to begin with.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Must Have For B-Movie Fans
Review: Deliciously bad sequel! If you are a connoisseur of bad cinema, I highly recommend you buy this movie...and heckle it. Features Michael Caine in his most indifferent performance ever and Mario Van Peebles butchering a Jamaican accent. THE SHARK IS AFTER THE FAMILY!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Sinks the series to great depths.
Review: The younger of the Brody brothers is killed by a shark whilst trying to remove driftwood from a buoy and Ellen Brody, who, it turns out, has become a widow since Jaws 2, decides to get away from it all on holiday, but it seems the shark has followed her and wants revenge for the death of its kin.

You've probably guessed by now that this film is utter nonsense. It certainly starts off very promisingly. The death scene of the younger Brody brother is superbly sinister and the opening sequence features some wonderfully eerie camera-work. But most of the film is like a made-for-TV movie, completely devoid of real thrills.

The main problems lie in the plot, which has more holes than a tramp's vest. A shark somehow manages to travel halfway across the world faster than an aeroplane, Ellen Brody has flashbacks to events she never witnessed, a lot of people die but then turn out to be 'alright after all' in ludicrously contrived fashion and the shark explodes for no explained reason.

The special effects are pretty pathetic. At one point the shark seems to be hovering in the air. The characters are dull and irritating and Michael 'my ambition is to be in every film ever made' Caine is wasted in a thankless role.

If you're a fan of the original Jaws then watch Part 2, which is the definate shark sequel. 'The Revenge' is only suitable for use as a doorstop.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Watch at Your Own Risk!
Review: This movie was a laughably bad and often ridiculous disgrace to the legacy of the incomparably superior "Jaws." A shoddy sequel with shameful special effects and an illogical and just plain stupid plot, "Jaws: The Revenge" has virtually nothing going for it. Certainly a nominee for a "top-ten" worst all-time movies list. Don't waste your time, unless you happen to be a conoisseur of poor filmmaking.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: LAUGH-A-MINUTE-EXTRAVAGANZA
Review: The original Jaws is one of the finest Horror, and film of any genre ever made. Jaws:The Revenge is not. Mind bogglingly stupid premise, rather poor acting and direction, some may say this is the apitemy of a "Bad Movie". However I must say I found the wild antics of this zany shark outrageously amusing in places and think that some of the film's score would have been better replaced with such tunes as Scott Joplin's 'The Entertainer' or Herb Alphert & the Tijuana Brass performing 'Spanish Flea'.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Jaws 4
Review: I went to see Jaws 4 out of my respect for the first Jaws and was very disappointed. The whole idea of the shark wanting the revenge towards the Broady family just didn't do it for me. The effects were not good either. The shark did not move normally it just seemed to be still framed along. The ending was sooo bad! But I won't spoil it for you if you do decide to watch it. If you really like the Jaws movies it may just be worth it to watch once, but never again!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: i'm still waiting for...
Review: this movie has nothing to do with the original jaws i didn't even wait untill the movie was finished i pressed the stop button after 10 min and i am still waiting for the first part and second part of jaws to come on dvd.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I feel sorry for the shark. And I don't care about this film
Review: I have the first Jaws on video, widescreen. Beautiful. Spectacular. Amazing. I saw Jaws 2 on TV a few weeks back, and I shrugged my shoulders and thought "Ah, it's a decent sequel." Then I saw Jaws 3 (aka Jaws 3-D) and scratched my head. Finally, I got a chance to see Jaws the Revenge at a friends house...and I still don't understand WHY IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT'S GOOD would someone have such a cruel heart as to defile the greatness of Speilberg's masterpiece?! This film is a gross insult to the first Jaws. I feel sorry for Bruce the shark, and it's not just because he has been blown apart, electrocuted, blown apart again, and impaled by a boat!!! It's because he had to star in this WASTE!!! Well, Bruce, I still worship you when I watch the Jaws I have on video, from the time you snack down on the naked girl to the time you bite Quint in half.
