Chief Martin Brody has passed away from a
heart attack due to his ongoing fear of
sharks as his youngest son Sean (Mitchell
Anderson) becomes a deputy and when he is
out to sea to untangle a log from a buoy
during the Christmas season he is killed
by a great white.
His widowed mother Ellen (Lorraine Gary)
is in shock as her oldest son Mike (Lance
Guest) who is now a marine biologist
comes to visit her as she demands him to
quit his job and to stay away from the
water convinced that the sharks are out
to kill her family.
They decide to leave Amity Island for the
holiday and go to the Bahamas and forget
about shark attacks.
However, Ellen senses the shark is coming
over as well to get them all but meets up
with a carefree pilot named Hoagie
(Michael Caine) whom she shares this
secrets to.
Mike and his local friend Jake (Mario van
Peebles) they encounter a great white
attacking their boat as Ellen's senses
were right that the shark followed them
there as this time Ellen won't let this
rest and face her fear in a final fatal
showdown.
The last of it's
kind as the Jaws films
were really starting to lack. A bit
better than part 3 in which this one
totally ignored but not by much.
The shark still looked scary and a nice
look at the Bahaumas too with a good new
twist on the mother sensing the shark
which has never been used in the past
sequels of the film as if she was
psychic.
Some people wonder if a 5th one will be
out but I wouldn't hold my breath as the
story was getting very tiring.
The acting stands
out well as we have a nice performance by
Lorraine Gary for the third time
in Jaws film acting like
a vengeful basket case on tha t shark
attacks. She shows the most energy in
this one.
Lance Guest played the perfect
Michael Brody than the last few actors
knowing his stuff with his character. I
always found him a good actor in the
shows I've seen him in.
Mario van Peebles was also an actor
that was very out there as a Bahama local
showing a nice humorous touch to his
part.
Child actress Judith Barsi was
cute and charming in her role playing a
nicely well raised little girl in the
film.
An arm is bitten
off but not too graphic looking
Joseph Sargent shows
a nice cheesy opening with the camera
swimming in the water as well as going on
shore.
There is a good moment with the shark
rising from the water about to attack but
yet supporting actor Mitchell
Anderson is low on energy when he is
being attacked by the shark.
There's a good argumentative dialogue
between Lorraine Gary towards Lance
Guest demanding him to quit his job
and not to go in the water again.
A good shot on Gary crying
hysterically on a motorboat in the water.
We spot a nice dialogue between Gary
and child actress Judith Barsey
while making a sandcastle and a good
disturbed expression on Gary as
she stands up and staring at the ocean
which looked impressive.
A great dream sequence with Gary swimming
in the coean and an underwater shot on
her swimming with the camera approaching
her.
A good dialogue between Michael Caine
and Gary when she discusses the
recent shark attacks and saying she knows
the shark is out there.
A good moment with Guest and Mario
van Peebles out on a boat having a
good time. Later on we spot a nice and
nasty look on the great white swimming in
the water.
A nice look on the great white attacking
the boat with Guest having a
shocked expression on his face and Gary
in a party sensing this with a surprised
expression on her face.
Guest does well by being aggressive
towards van Peebles on hunting
down the great white.
Terrific shots on Guest speeding
away through sea tunnels with the shark
on his tail.
A good dialogue between Gary and
Guest dancing at a party with
their discussion towards one another
trying to forget about the past.
A cute moment between Guest and Barsey
when Barsey copies what he does
at a living room table.
A good shot on some cast members riding a
boat and the shark lunging for someone
which looked horrifying as well as a
perect shot on Karen Young
screaming hysterically on the beach.
A good vengeful reaction on Gary
when she speeds her boat out to sea and
shows good aggression towards the shark.
A good shot on a plane flying into the
water and then the shark attacking it.
A great slow motion shot on the shark
rising up and grabbing van Peebles
and then slamming him into the water with
a perfect shout by Guest.
Michael Small performs
some descent classical Jaws
music along with some cheesy tingling
synthesizer sounds making the moment a
little more different than in the past
films.
Ellen
Brody: I want you, to get out of the
water.
Michael Brody: What?
Ellen Brody: I want you, to get
out of that terrible job!
Michael Brody: C'mon Mom, you
can't be serious.
Ellen Brody: Damn! I'm serious.
Michael
Brody: Dad died of a heart attack!
Ellen Brody: No. He died from
fear. Fear of that shark.
Michael
Brody: [when shark's chasing him
through tunnels] JESUS CHRIST!
Michael
Brody: [to torch-wielding welder
wife Carla] I've always wanted to
make love to an angry welder. I've
dreamed of nothing else since I was a
small boy.
Ellen
Brody: Come and get me, you son of a
bitch!
Hoagie:
[as the shark swims up to him]
Oooh, shit.
Shark:
AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHUUUUUUUUUUU!
