Matthew P Honestly underrated. A solid adventure/natural horror movie. Its worst crime is being a decent sequel to one of the greatest movies ever made. A lot of it is screenwriting 101. Michael is grounded by Chief Brody, but he goes out anyway, and then he's the one in danger. But any other movie would have Brody be furious and Michael begging for forgiveness. Seriously, the stuff with the teens all works, and they are portrayed as real kids who know they are in over their heads and are just hoping the adults will save them. Brody's arc is logical, and a better movie would have deeply explored it, but it's not bad here by any means. And the shark is more of a horror monster, but you're not going to top the first movie, so why try? Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/10/25 Full Review Leslee P. Love Jaws 2!! I love how they kept the same actors for the characters. Overall it’s my favorite movie out of the 3z Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/06/25 Full Review Dustin B. While it retains most of the talent of its brilliant predecessor, Jaws 2 tries to swim, but only sinks. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/03/25 Full Review Matthew B Used to love this one more than the original. Absolute class and deserves love. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/31/25 Full Review Eric B A sequel to the original Jaws was never going to end well or come anywhere even close to being as great as the first. Jaws is hands down one of the greatest films ever made. Jaws 2 is a worthy sequel. It’s worth a viewing. Thanks in large part to the efforts of Roy Scheider who carries this movie. If Jaws was a perfect 10/10, Jaws 2 is a solid 7. It has the suspense it has the horror it just doesn’t have the overall powerhouse Cast as the first movie. As I said though, it’s a worthy sequel that is worth at least one view. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/27/25 Full Review Simon T Poor Roy Scheider. Contractually obliged to return to Amity and wrestle not just with that bloody shark, but multiple scenes with the awful Lorraine Gary. And a very bad screenplay that plays like a pale imitation of the original. On the positive side, Jaws 2 is a lot better than either Jaws 3D or the woeful Jaws: the Revenge (aka Return of the Lorraine Gary). At least there's a terrific John Williams score to paper over the cracks. And the excellent Murray Hamilton once again trying to keep the beaches open and showcase his appalling jackets. Director Jeannot Swarcz went on to helm Supergirl and Santa Claus the Movie. No more need be said. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/21/25 Full Review Read all reviews
