One good, two dodgy, but still fun
The three Jaws sequals.Jaws 2 is a well-made and entertaining film. Amity is once again threatened by the presence of a large Great White, and once more Brody finds himself a lone voice of sanity in a community who don't want to know. I'd put this film on a par with the original. The characters are as good as before, Chief Brody is now more of a tortured soul and makes a sympathetic hero. The shark, with its burnt face, looks effectively horrific and there are some great scenes of suspence.Jaws 3. Hmm. You know what to expect from this film when you see that fish's head being bitten off and then looking at the viewer with its mouth opening and closing in unintentionally comic fashion. A baby shark is captured in Sea World, a cross between an underwater theme park and Butlins, and before long its massive parent is forcing its way into the park. On the staff are Chief Brody's two sons (though they might as well be Ren & Stimpy for what it has to do with the plot, and considering the trauma they suffered as children involving sharks they seem very keen to dive back into the water). This film probably looked good as a script. If only it had more money spent on it I think it could have been great. Instead we are treated to a hilariously mechanical-looking shark and effects which just inspire humour rather than horror. The 3-D is kind of limp and feels as though it was tacked on as a selling point.Jaws:The Revenge. The cheddar feast continues. Ladies ange gentlemen, welcome to Jaws - The Revenge. See the amazing flying, roaring, exploding shark, the world's first hit-man with fins who can turn the water red without even killing anyone. Watch it swim across the sea in a matter of hours. Watch it track down the relatives of someone who killed one of its brethren. See the amazing Ellen Brody, who by telepathic means can remember things she never witnessed. Watch the death-defying Jake as he returns from the dead. Or something like that. The real tragedy is that there are scenes in this film which show how good it could have been if it hadn't been bogged down with an utterly daft storyline and a load of laughably fake accents. Not to mention some cheap-looking effects. What happened to the profits from the earlier films? The first ten minutes are great. The camera-work in the title sequence looks effectively sinister and its accompanied by some good music. The younger Brody brother being torn limb from limb while the unsuspecting community sings Christmas carols is a genuine horror moment, as is the scene where a woman is pulled from a banana boat and crushed to death in front of several screaming little girls. Michael Caine does his best to inject warmth and humour into the storyline, but it's all just a might-have-been.One classic film, two dodgy films which are nevertheless good for a laugh. There is a wealth of extras involving the making of Jaws 2, meaning this box-set is well worth it if you're a fan of these kinds of movies.

Jaws 3 and 4 are terrible
I bought this as my teenage daughter had just seen Jaws on TV (which is a great film). I remembered seeing most of them years ago.Jaws 2 is a pretty good followup, however, I wouldnt even bother EVER watching 3 and 4 ever again LOLMy daughter enjoyed 2 and a little liked 3 (but what does she know haha) ;)As I was really only interested in Jaws 2, it was a good buy, (and I couldnt find a combined Jaws 1 and 2 dvd at the time) but I wont be playing the other 2 films again... ever

Jaws 2 Looks good
I really only bought this for Jaws 2. I watched it on a UHD 4K 55 Inch TV and it looked good. This is one movie where the sequel was almost as good as the original.Jaws 3 & 4 are worth a look as they obviously come included, but without Brodie, Hooper, Quint and the naughty Mayor they just seem a bit irrelevant.

Its European so disc will not play
What I didn't like is that they did not disclose that it is a European DVD set up...so when I received it in good old USA I could not play it on any of my DVD players... still waiting for a refund....I love all the Jaws movie just disappointed that this was not put right out there for you to know before wasting time and money

Movie cannot play in our region
When I purchased this movie, I was not aware it could not be played on our player since it only can be seen in Europe. Now I'm not sure whether to return it or what.
