Summary: Cynical...yes....but just hear me out!
Review: This movie is one of those films that on its own would be thrown away if possible! The plot is to similar to its predeceasors and for a more modern film it is a shameful addition to the Jaws series. But being the huge Jaws fan that I and so many other people are, this movie is a must have! For the simple use of honoring the first 2(maybe even 3) films this movie should be bought! If you are just looking for a film that you want to enjoy...this film might not be soemthing you would want! I personally love it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sharks are scarey!!!
Review: I never understand why people make fun of the movie. The first Jaws is to boring and you hardly see the shark! At least this episode has alot of action and the colest part is when Jaws sinks Michael Kane's plane. Plus, Jaws looks fairly realistic even without computer effects!

The movie was good enough to enspire a very fun (and very hard) Nintendo game so watch it soon!!!

Also a good shark movie is Deep Blue Sea.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: 2 DIFFERENT ENDINGS!??
Review: I saw the film for the first time when it first came out and at the end when Ellen Brody crashes into the shark the front of the boat stabs through it and blood pours out of the shark then the front of the boat breaks off and he sinks.....Now i watch it and it blows up...somehow???? I want to find out where i can get a copy of the Original ending....not a good movie but even worse when the shark blows up. If anyone knows where i can get the original e-mail me please.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: SHARKS DON"T GROWL!
Review: I hate this movie please don't go see just try and think of it this way there was jaws, then there was jaws 2, and that's it don't even concern yourself with the other two.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Very Stupid but Well Made Sequel.
Review: When Chief`s Brody youngest son died and killed by a great white Shark. Since Chief Brody died of a heart attack. Now Helen Brody (Lorraine Gray) is on Vacation with her oldest son (Lance Guest) in Florida. The great white shark has been coming all the way from Amity to Florida to Haunt:Helen Brody!

Directed by Joseph Sergent made a watchable film but Screenwriter Micheal De Guzman writes the film`s plot unbelivable stupid. DVD's has an fine non-anamorphic Widescreen (2.35:1) transfer and an strong Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround Sound. The film doesn`t make sense whatsoever but Still, it`s delivers the Goods. A lot better than Jaws 3-D. Panavision. Grade:B.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Disc is excellent, the movie is not.
Review: Jaws the Revenge has a beautiful transfer, sharp and clean and well matted in the 2:35:1 aspect ratio of its original theatrical presentation, but the movie still stinks to high heaven.

Sheriff Deputy Sean Brody (son of the late Sheriff Martin Brody, is killed off when Roy Scheider wisely refused to be in this outing) is killed in the waters off of Amity Island. His distraught mother Ellen Brody (well played by Lorraine Gary) believes that the attack was personally motivated by revenge for the shark that Martin killed in 1975 (readers should note that this movie ignores Jaws 2 and 3-D). Her surviving son Mike (an icthyologist studying sea snails in Bermuda) fears for her mental state and encourages her to join his family for awhile down in the tropics, far away from Amity. Ellen goes and the shark follows for this it is indeed personal.

What hampers Jaws the Revenge, aside from a silly story, is that director Joseph Sargent (The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3, Colussus: The Forbin Project) does absolutely nothing with the supernatural concepts or the shark. The attacks scenes are perfunctory in nature, only a sequence where the demon fish chases Michael through the bowels of a sunken ship comes close to generating any kind of suspense, and the mechanical gear operating the shark is painfully visible in several shots. I got the feeling that Sargent wanted this to be more of a people picture. Too bad that screenwriter Michael DeGuzman did not deliver a script that clearly focused on those people. A soggy misfire.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Jaws The Revenge This Time It's Personal!
Review: Awesome! Nail biting suspense! There is always something going on that keeps you on the edge of your seat! I would rate this a top notch horror/thriller movie! The best JAWS of them all!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Probably the worst of the series
Review: "Jaws" is one of my favorite movies of all time and I also liked "Jaws 2" a lot, but I didn't like "Jaws 3," and it's hard to believe, but "Jaws: the Revenge" is possibly even worse than "Jaws 3." In the famous great white's final film, he terrorizes Ms. Brody (Lorraine Gary) once again, making her nightmares come true, even though she's now in the Bahamas instead of Florida.

As much as I hate to say it, "Jaws: the Revenge" isn't that good of a movie. Jaws himself doesn't have good effects (it's VERY easy to tell he's fake), and the few kills that he makes aren't even that exciting. Not to mention that the movie's ending was even more underwhelming.

As bad as "Jaws: the Revenge" is, it is watchable. Just don't expect it to stand anywhere near the ranks of the first two movies in the series, it's more at the level of "Jaws 3." Unfortunately, Jaws just didn't have enough revenge to make an exciting movie. I don't recommend getting "Jaws: the Revenge" unless you want to collect all four movies in the series.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: OK for the price
Review: This movie was just OK in my eyes. It is corny, not scary, and has the worst character name ever in a movie: Hoagie. Other than that, it is a Jaws movie! Has no special features but I guess I really can't expect any for under $10.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: An Okay Movie
Review: I wil start with the bad stuff about the movie and end with the good.I think the worst thng about this movie is the stupid plot. And it could have used more action. But the movie isn't crap. There are some good scenes in here. The beging scene where the youngest Brody is attacked and killed by the great white, and the scene on the beach with the kids on the float.A fair movie if you like to be scaredbut not to the point of turning the movie off. Still I am the kind who will watch just about anything scary that isn't Rated R.
