Steven Spielberg's "jaws" created the summer blockbuster in 1975. Taking cinemas around the world and traumatizing the whole generation, forced people to think twice before entering the ocean (not to become shark food).

The story of a city is slowly revealing as it is covered by a hungry human eating a large white shark terrified the audience with its spectacular photography, malicious grade and attractive performances. It also made Spielberg's name of the household and has earned over $ 484 million at the box office for 50 years thanks to its initial work and subsequent screenings for theater revival.

With such a success, the sequels would inevitably happen, and the universal paintings were happy to throw Fima in the water, giving the audience three more films that oppose the shark. They are as follows:

• "Jaws" (1975)
• "Jaws 2" (1978)
• "Jaws 3" aka "Jaws 3D" (1983)
• "Jaws: Revenge" (1987)

Unfortunately, none of these sequels to the "jaws" never approach the magic of Spielberg's original, one of the true films "Lightning in a bottle" that still has daunting power to this day. Universal was reportedly approaching Spielberg to restart the "jaws", But he declined, which means that from this writing, you are best watching the films chronologically as they were published.

Even if you are reading this article and somehow you haven't seen the original "jaws", there will probably be nothing that I could tell you you haven't heard before. There was one of the most heavy film shoots of all time, with Spielberg and his team building incredibly large Mechanical shark that never worked properly. Because of this, he had to shoot around the shark, holding it hidden despite the mass size to the exact moment when he had to hit, at that moment it was too late.

Despite these problems (or perhaps even for them), Spielberg's film maintained world imagination with mortal control. For the last 50 years, Each frame of "jaws" is spilled With a nice tooth comb to find out why it's just so damn good. These move from the little things, like the road Spielberg refused to use the red color anywhere in the room Except for buckets of blood that would get out of shark victims to the most film known and, as it was, an improvised line And a simple but frightening result of Johnon Williams. However, in the end, there is no single element that explains why the "jaws" remained such a basic film in the history of the cinema.

Whether the audience is full of dedicated cynefiles or ordinary films that require a cool theater to beat the heat on a summer day, everyone wants and/or are terrified of Spielberg's shark classic. Many, many films have tried to capture the spirit of "jaws", And few have succeeded, including the three direct sequels that followed. So, it might be best if you stop here and allow the "jaws" to be a single object in your memory - a great movie without sequels. Or, if you choose, you can keep watching "Jaws 2", but don't say I didn't warn you.

After the "jaws" spent many, many weeks as the number one movie in the United States, the sequel was everything except guaranteed. After all, universal images are built its monsters, pictures, And so her hope was to turn the wicked shark into the next Dracula. Unfortunately for the studio, Spielberg endured such a nightmare experience by shooting the film on the Open Ocean that he refused to return to direct the sequel. He barely survived for the first time, and believed that returning with seconds was an enticing fate.

Producers David Brown and Richad D. Zanuk replaced Spielberg with employee director Jeannot Szwarc, who had big shoes to fill them. Fortunately for Schwark, composer Johnon Williams has returned once again to deal with the result, with Roy Jader and Lauren Gary, they have also returned to repeat their roles as Chief Martin Brody and Ellen Brody, respectively. Several other accompanying actors have also returned, including Murray Hamilton as a slimy mayor Larry Vaughan (who, against all reasonable judgments, again refuses to act despite the apparent evidence of the waters attacking sharks).

The dearest thing you can say about "Jaws 2" is that it never wears the same viscous bite as the original feature. The film mainly deals with playing many the same types of scenes as we have seen before, with Brody finding proof of a shark returning to Amit and none of the power that believes in it until it's too late. It is a hollow review in that its cavity reminds us of how special the "jaws" is, and that is perhaps the only reason you need to see "Jaws 2."

The best thing you can say about "Jaws 2" is that it's the best of the "jaws" sequels ... But you may have to take it as a sign to stop now before it's too late.

In the eighties of the last century, 3D technology returned to Vogue, and every Hollywood studio searched for ways to rise into the effect to make the audience watch its films. "Jaws 3" is one of the most notorious examples: largely uninterested in tracking any of the story of the previous two films, this is an independent film starring Dennis Quaid as older Michael Brody traveling to SeaWorld where ... and you will never believe this ... The park is attacked by a killer. Luis Gset Runior joins the cast as a park manager who thinks he can fight the shark, while the real heroes who save the day are Seaworld dolphins that protect Michael in the dolphin battle against a shark. So, yes, you can technically skip this and move right to Jaws: The Revenge, but think about what you will miss. (It's sarcasm in case you miss it).

If it all sounds silly and funny, you might think it would be fun to watch "Jaws 3." Unfortunately, I would make a mistake. The movie is built around Its cheap, 3D effects of the era of the 80s, And it doesn't even do a good thing with them. When you watch the weak 2D version, the shark comes down to a cut -off cardboard hovering across the screen.

Fortunately, the original "jaws" are now available in one of Best 3D transfers ever made, So if you really die to see a shark pop out of the screen, look at it. Or maybe get back and watch One of those "jaws" knockouts I was talking before. I mean, have you seen an "alligator" or "tremors?" They are so good. Definitely better than this, however.

So, you came back to the waters of the island of Amit and you are shocked to hear that the shark killer eats people for the third time. But this time, it's not just random shark attacks. No. This time, it's about revenge. Yes, in a plot of Jaws: The Revenge, Chief Brody dies from the heart attack screen, leaving his widow Ms Ellen Brody (played by original actor Lauren Gary, who retired) alone on the island. After her son was killed by the big white near the coast of Amit, Ellen travels to the Bahamas with his family to take her mind out of the tragedy, just to be kicked out of the same shark killer to the tropical island.

How does the Ellen shark know the Bahamas? Did she fall at the airport? Did he lied to her phone? Did he shoot through her trash to find a rejected reception for a plane ticket? Did he wear a trench coat and watched her flight board? If you are asking these questions, you have thought about this more than someone who is involved in the actual production of the film. "Jaws: Revenge" is rightly considered One of the worst extensions of all time. Skipping over everything that happened in the previous film, it positions the entire franchise as a story of a shark family's blood altercation against Brodis. It is foretold at every level, and if you see this last, you will be shocked when you see how far this franchise has fallen from the original masterpiece of Spielberg.

Let me repeat that you should not see this. Michael Caine, who starred in the film as a pilot Jogi, has previously called one of his "worst pictures". And even he did not see the movie (but he admitted, "I saw the house bought by my mother and is beautiful!") So, if for some reason you still want to see "jaws: revenge" instead, say, redirect Spielberg's original or any of those blows (I'm not joking about "shocks". It's a perfect movie!), just remember that at least it helped Michael Caine buy his mother's house. How is it for a silver sheath?
