Editorial Review:

Product Description:
This special 30th Anniversary Edition is Digitally Mastered and contains exclusive footage, interviews, and behind-the-scenes material. Steven Spielberg directed this classic film that became one of the most enduring action-suspense films of all time. “Jaws” was an instant blockbuster, a phenomenon, and today it is still among the highest grossing films in motion picture history, acclaimed by critics and audiences alike. Rediscover the timeless film that continues to make entire generations afraid to go in the water.

Amazon.com essential video:
In the vastly overrated 1998 book Easy Riders, Raging Bulls, author Peter Biskind puts the blame for Hollywood’s blockbuster mentality at least partially on Steven Spielberg’s box-office success with this adaptation of Peter Benchley’s bestselling novel. But you can’t blame Spielberg for making a terrific movie, which Jaws definitely is. The story of a Long Island town whose summer tourist business is suddenly threatened by great-white-shark attacks on humans bypasses the potboiler trappings of Benchley’s book and goes straight for the jugular with beautifully crafted, crowd-pleasing sequences of action and suspense supported by a trio of terrific performances by Roy Scheider (as the local sheriff), Richard Dreyfuss (as a shark specialist), and particularly Robert Shaw (as the old fisherman who offers to hunt the shark down). The sequences on Shaw’s boat–as the three of them realize that in fact the shark is hunting them–are what entertaining moviemaking is all about. –Marshall Fine

Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - How about, JAWS ON BLU-RAY.
Without a doubt one of the best movies ever made. All the great reviews pretty much say it all.And the show should speak for itself. But, why then has this not been done on blu-ray????? I’m shocked that it has not been done yet. Let’s just keep our fingers crossed.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - THE BEST JAWS EVER!!!
THIS IS THE BEST JAWS EVER!!! It’s bound to make you afraid of the water! If you like sharks you’ve got to see this. …

YOU MAY NEVER GO IN THE WATER AGAIN.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - FABULOUS
JAWS is probably the best film ever made in a century besides Citizen Kane. Otherwise, Jaws still frightens millions of people.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Spielberg At His Absolute Best
When future generations examine the Steven Spielberg canon, two films will stand out: “Schindler’s List” (1993) and “Jaws” (1975), the director’s breakthrough thriller. More than 30 years later, the picture remains a textbook example of storytelling and characterization - somehow managing to transcend Peter Benchley’s source material. Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw and Richard Dreyfuss make a formidable ensemble while Spielberg keeps a tight grip on the watery suspense. No matter how many times you see … Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - You ruined my life…
I like to call this my favorite movie. I think it’s because its the first movie that impacted the rest of my life. I couldn’t swim in a pool without getting the creeps. Forget the ocean. After 30 years, I was finally able to swim in the ocean this past summer without thinking a shark was going to get me. I realize I’m 38 year old but this movie scarred me for life. I won’t let my kids watch it for fear it will ruin our beach trips. Thanks for ruining the beach for 30 years, Spielberg!
