This is the one where the big rubber shark gets to attack an aircraft, but that's far from being the only silly thing about this preposterous fourth entry in the series. Michael Caine makes the most of the summer weather in the Bahamas (the setting for most of the film) and delivers a cheerfully irrelevant cameo. But Lorraine Gary, the only link — apart from the shark — with the fine original, is annoyingly neurotic, while the plot — this time the shark gets personal — is laughably inept.
Yes! This is one of those films that if you intend to sit down and take it serious then you are going to watch a bad bad film. Terrible script, the shark looks worse than ever and the acting is shameful (although the director surprisingly did a good job and there are some nice shots). If on the other hand you sit down with your friends while you have had a few too many and watch this you are in for a night of laughter. I mean a shark that is out for revenge!???
The tralier for this film says it all...'This time its personal'. You know you are on to a bad thing when the tag line is this cheesy.
So put this on your list if you are having a film night in with your friends and this will break the ice I guarantee it.
JAWS has to be my all time favourite horror movie. its brilliant, the best! So i thought i would give them all a go. JAWS 2 is good. JAWS 3 is very poor, but JAWS The Revenge has to be the worst fim i have EVER seen!!! it is so bad, you cant turn it off as it is that laughable!! I advise anybody never to watch this film, unless you want a laugh, cos you will be so so so dissappointed if you do. stick to JAWS or even JAWS 2, as they are top!!
