Jaws 3-D (1983)
4/10
You can't tame a Great white.
24 January 2018
Sea world is under siege from the Great White monster, that's basically the entire plot, throw on the kids from Jaws 1 (all grown up rather quickly,) some cute dolphins, some horrific 3D effects, and a hugely camp performance from Simon MacCorkindale and you have a film.

You need to be watching it in 3D or it looks horrific, the effects are bad enough as it is, without 3D they look shocking, floating limbs and fish heads etc.

I liked the opening scenes with the music and the dead fish etc. quite atmospheric I guess, I think by now though the Jaws franchise is looking very very tired, Jaws 2 was a fairly decent sequel, but they should have stopped there. The film definitely misses Roy Schneider who was the focal character (apart from the Shark of course.)

It's definitely better then Jaws The Revenge which is an absolute waste of time. In shark terms this film would be a Basking Shark, it certainly lacks any bite of any kind. It's a film you watch for a bit of fun, it's hard to take this one seriously. 4/10
