It have less boring parts (part 2 puts me to sleep)
Well, if you prefer to watch incessant pointless filler involving a grown man being jealous of his mother's blossoming relationship with a sea pilot and arguing with his wife over taking out the garbage than ACTUAL FOCUS on the titular subject - then perhaps killer shark movies just aren't your cup of tea ;).
it's way better in terms of performances
*cough cough* Roy Scheider *cough cough*
it's straight to the point as a low-budget B-flick that mixes the creature feature & the slasher movie genres.
Um... No. In an attempt to once again cash in
Jaws' popularity, it takes the most ridiculous, laziest and hackneyed concept for a horror film sequel out there, and tries to make a serious drama/thriller out of it that's on par with the original film, but this only results in a complete mockery of itself in total. Also, it was made on a budget of 23 million, which back then was NOT considered low-budget.
This movie keeps me excited all the way through
See the "less boring parts" response above.
but with suspension of disbelief this movie delivers the goods as a decent "Midnight Session" movie.
Suspension of disbelief has it's limits, and this movie pushes it too far, to the point that it directly insults the viewers intelligence.
Worst movie of all time?
Probably not, I'd take it over
The Garbage Pail Kids Movie or anything by Friedberg & Seltzer anyday. But it's still a terrible movie (close to being the worst), an insult to both
Jaws and it's fans, and it deserves all the hate it gets.
