Product Description

Might one day be in 3D for DVD..........2007-05-02
I saw this in the theater at age 12 and again numerous times on video. The main reason that this movie has not been released in a 3D format for home video, is that the movie was released in a polarized 3D format, rather than the old red/green or red/blue format that works on television sets. One lens in the movie glasses was polarized vertically and the other horizontally (a la Universal and Disney theme-park 3D movies). This particular effect is currently impossible to re-create even on HD televisions because of the horizontal scanning that makes the tv images. It could be converted into a red/green format for DVD, but Universal is unlikely to shell out the money for a conversion, which would likely take over a year of labor by an FX team. Also, that's assuming that the Left and Right film masters still exist as seperate films. Even at age 12 in 1983, I was unimpressed by much of the film, one redeeming factor being that the shark was so darn huge [35 ft]. I didn't like the use of stop-motion near the end, something Spielberg avoided at all costs in the original. Holding out for the slim chance of a Red/Green 3D conversion before I buy, as I have all the others on DVD.
This movie put the Jaws franchise on life-support.......2007-04-23
This is the point where the Jaws movies officially lost its credibility. It was already pretty shaky after Jaws 2 but this is the moment when the series jumped shark (no pun intended). Through herculian efforts, I convinced myself that what happened in Jaws 2 was possible because maybe the shark in the first one had a girlfriend/boyfriend shark nearby. But a supermassive great white terrorizing the Brody family for a third time?
It's worth noting that this film probably contains a scene or two that have arguably the worst special effects of the whole Jaws series (including Jaws the Revenge). The one that comes to mind is when the shark breaks through the glass and floods the place in the underwater city at the end of the movie. It is not just bad, it is breathtakingly bad. When the shark hits the glass it comes to a complete stop even though the glass it hits has just been shattered into tiny pieces. Imagine throwing a baseball at a window causing it to completely shatter but the ball miraculously does not go through the window. That's the logic that this movie expects you to believe.
One of the few nice things I can say about this movie is that it could have been worse (as Jaws the Revenge proved). And there were some things that I liked: I thought the little (by its standards) baby great white was cute and the dolphins were awesome. But these small elements that I enjoyed are few and far between.
I'll admit that when I was young I must have watched this movie many times. But now that I'm older I've regretted spending so much time watching these movies that made money JUST by their title and little else. They're a waste of time and money and I strongly urge anyone seriously considering buying this to look elsewhere. Stay out of the water and stay away from this.
Jaws 3 was much better than Jaws 2.......2007-04-23
I'm surprised by the number of bad reviews posted here for Jaws 3. I've seen all of the Jaws movies many times and I my favorites are Jaws and Jaws 3. I thought Jaws 2 and Jaws Revenge were unbelievably stupid. Face it, the last half of Jaws 2 is basically just a bunch of screaming kids. Jaws 3 is entertaining just by the fact that it's filmed at Seaworld. It has many scary scenes and some cool effects. Namely, the part of the movie showing an underwater glass bottom walk-way of the theme park where people are walking and sharks are lurking nearby.
The shark jumped the shark........2007-04-06
This is not worth writing about. Dennis Quaid is a good actor, but a poor choice of movie to be associated with.
If you want to watch a bad movie, then watch this one.
This movie fails!.......2007-03-06
1,2, and 4 are best leave out 3. Why is the title named Jaws 3-D? Where are the 3-D glasses? I mean the effects are just horrible. I enjoy the rest of the series but this one is just boring. They should re-release this movie in theater with 3-D glasses and I would probably give this movie a good rating but for now this movie just sucks.
