JAWS! I watched that movie last night for the first time and I must admit I was dispointed.
The whole plot was a bit unrealistic, at times the acting was flimsy. I got the impression the whole town consisted of a bunch of idiots. There were only a few moments of action, and when they did come they were totally expected - the music gave away what was coming next. The one scene I thought was really exciting ended up really gory, and it simply made me want to stop watching (who really enjoys seeing a guy get bitten in half???).
Overall it's OK, they use some objectionable words, and there is some gore. It's rated PG. I wouldn't watch it again, it's the kind of movie you get out from the library (like I did) and say to yourself, Wow, am I glad I didn't spend any money on that.
Most people I talked to said it was a really scary movie, but in my opinion it's not. There's too much unrealisticness to be able to imagine it happening in real life (25' shark in 4' of water? I don't think so...).
