Synopsis
The third film in the successful Jaws franchise follows yet another great white shark with an appetite for humans, this time invading the opening ceremonies of a marine park in Florida. The brand new complex offers visitors the chance to view the undersea kingdom from the safety of glass tunnels on the seabed. When a 35-foot great white breaks into the structure--seemingly in revenge for the death of its progeny--a group of marine biologists must do battle with the mighty mother beast.
Customer Reviews
Be happy with the first two Jaws films.
Set some years after the events in Jaws 2, this sequal sees Chief Brody's two sons now working in an underwater theme park. One day, a baby shark is captured and brought into the park, resulting in its big bad parent turning up. A homage to Gorgo? No, this film isn't so much a homage as a mouldy, stinky piece of fromage. The idea of the theme park is a good one, and there are a few memorable moments. But mostly it's just pretty laughable. The special effects are dire, the 3-D idea is a stupid and pointless gimmick, and the shark itself looks like it's had less money spent on it than a 1970s Dr Who monster. I'm giving this film two stars, as it's at least entertainingly bad, unlike Jaws 4 which is just bad. If you've never seen any Jaws films then watch the first two, which are much better.
The third dimension........is cheesyness
A very, VERY cheesy bad film. Now where shall I start with bad things? Oh yes:-
Bad acting
Fake shark shown too much
Fake attacks
Ruins the name of a classic film made 12 years earlier
Good Stuff? errrmmmm
Dennis Quaid is in it
ONE good scene
STRONGLY RECOMEND NOT TO BUY, RENT IF YOUR DESPERATE, BUT DON'T BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A hilarious unintentional comedy
Jaws 3 is dire. The story is dire, the acting is dire (yes you, guy from "Manimal") The special effects are not very special. Having said that, I watched this with a friend and some beers and by the end I was in pain with laughter. There is a long build up to seeing the lurking menace and when it's revealed, it looks like Butthead. The massive beast then spends the rest of the film gliding aimlessly through the water in danger of being overtaken by a barnacle. At the climax, when faced with two people to eat, it just opens and closes it's mouth repeatedly without making any attempt to attack.
Oh Jaws 3, you made my day. You didn't mean to, but you did :)
