Jaws
Steven Spielberg’s adaptation of the best-selling Peter Benchley novel is a game-changing summer blockbuster that returns to terrify beach goers! The seaside community of Amity is under attack from a voracious great white shark and the town’s chief of police (Roy Scheider), a young marine biologist (Richard Dreyfuss), and a grizzled shark hunter (Robert Shaw) must team up to stop the killer Jaws before it’s too late.
“4 Stars. Steven Spielberg’s Jaws is a sensationally effective action picture, a scary thriller that works all the better because it’s populated with characters that have been developed into human beings we get to know and care about.” – Roger Ebert
