That shot of the shark swimming under that man right before it grabs him is nightmare fuel. Such a fantastic movie.

[justahuman]

The scene where the shark is in the pond and the silence as it swims through the water as Shawn is sitting on the sand, oh it gives me chills.

6:50 Something about the way Brody is running upon the stone wall as the crowd frantically trails behind him, paired with the dramatic score as they desperately try to get these kids out of the water before it’s too late just gives me the CHILLS. Brilliantly shot sequence from, in my opinion, the best movie ever made.

[patrickniehus]

quite simply one of the greatest movies ever made. It is flawless. The acting, the pacing, the tension, the dialogue - everything. It never gets old. It will never be bettered.

Jaws is the only shark in history to have his own personal orchestra follow him around everywhere he goes. The trouble is his victims can hear him coming a mile away.

46 years later, the original JAWS remains the best of films. This was my late Mom's favorite movie. Forever a golden and immortal masterpiece of cinema. 🦈

To think this movie is almost 50 years old and the amount of terror it could generate on you so many years later is a testament to how well speilberg directed this film. Awesome movie

7:05 That shot makes me scared of the ocean. It’s not the fact of drowning… it’s what’s underneath that scares me. Not knowing what is underneath is terrifying.

[cosmojairzinho]

A master class of film making ..the build up, the shots..music timing...this is a miracle

[thumpercomet]

The shot at 7:05 is still the most effective and scariest shot in the whole film.

Just saw Jaws in 4k UHD and its awesome, the detail, color, gives the picture a whole new relevancy.

[lucasgoncalves]

Interesting fact: the reporter on the beach is the author of the novel "Jaws". Ícone! 🇧🇷

[Kedbuka]

I saw "Jaws" when it was first released. I was nine years old. This scene disturbed me, hearing the man scream like that as he was getting attacked and eaten. Pretty heavy stuff. And it's still a really good, gripping scene.

[pistonhedd]

It's hard to imagine, this film nearly ended Spielberg's career before it got started and it ended up making him a Hollywood legend (imo). Duel from 1971 is a good SS film too - no blood, guts/gore, shoot 'em ups etc, just suspense.

[setpunks]

It's such a great shot with the smaller brody kid in the foreground calmly making sandcastles and the shark's dorsal fin and tail in the background, , cruising into the estuary. So convincing

[mini-nightmaresofficial]

People joke the shark looks fake but I think it looks AWESOME in the this scene. Especially for 1975!!

[kirstinvincent]

This is still terrifying and a masterpiece.

8:25

I always get chills when Brody looks out at the ocean. It was at this moment the shark had made it personal & Brody had had enough of the animal's reign of terror.

[grnggs]

This 4K ULTRA HD make it look like I'm seeing it for the first time.
Fantastic!!

Bruce still looks fantastic 47 years later. I know everyone had the “Shark still looks fake” joke but I disagree
Bruce always looked great and always will. Animatronics will always rule over CGI for me
