Jaws




Jaws film is a popular horror film directed by Steven Spielberg that depicts man’s fight with the creatures of nature. A great white shark plays the villain in this horrific film, when a teen girl goes missing and her remains are later found by chief Brody the protagonist of the film. As another child is murdered a bounty is placed on the shark’s head causing everyone to explore off into the sea on the hunt for the killer shark putting their lives in jeopardy.  Chief Brody and his acquaintances tag along for the adventure as well and are able to put an end to the murderous great white barely making it out alive. Being familiar with Steven Spielberg’s work as a director I would say that jaws was pretty well thought out and executed properly with a lot of surprise elements giving the film a suspense aspect. I felt the film was really similar to Spielberg’s film Carrie in the use of suspenseful music when something was about to happen and up close camera shots in the action scenes. If anything was different about this film that I hadn’t seen before it was more of the peripheral shots of the background that I thought were pretty unique. Overall Jaws was pretty entertaining more so action and suspense for me than horror which was probably why I enjoyed it.
