2 is passable. 3d is a guilty pleasure and the Revenge is an abomination

What the internet must realize is that in 1978, everyone wanted a jaws sequel and were pretty happy with it when it came out. In 1983, jaws 3 came out and showed a new generation a shark movie. Yes, it was bad but children loved it. Don’t ask me what happened in 1987.

The book for JAWS 2 is excellent. It ties up why there's another shark and looks at a town in ruin from the last shark. Based on an earlier script, which is darker.

The scariest thing in "Jaws: The Revenge" was Ellen Brody's hairstyle.

Jaws 2 isn't a bad sequel at all, in fact it's a good movie and had some great scenes. The big problem they had was linking them to the Brody family. It should have moved onto a new shark and situation. Making it the Brodys everytime made it laughable.

Jaws 2 is a worthy sequel. It's was never going to touch the quality of the first one, how can it, Jaws is a masterpiece. Jaws 2 holds up and is a good shark film. Of course everything is bigger, more blood and the shark should be shown more. You can't hide the shark, thats already been done. It doesn't eat a helicopter, does it. It's not perfect, but it's solid. It's a teenage slasher movie (which were popular at the time) set at sea. I like it.

What's quite funny is that in Jaws 3D, one of the makers said that the film is “extremely realistic“ and “based on countless research“ yet they show the shark later on in the movie swimming backwards

If all sequels were like jaws 2 we'd be living in sequel paradise

Jaws 2 is actually what Spielberg's original Jaws would have been. Everyone call him a genius for not showing the shark but that was only done out of necessity. Now he definitely came up with some clever ways of showing the shark's presence without actually showing it

"You're almost relieved when one of them (the Jaws 2 teenagers) get killed." Actually, that teenager who got killed saving Sean was the least annoying one on that trip and her death is NOT a relief! Overall, I've always liked Jaws 2, whilst acknowledging it has big originality issues. Great action scenes though.

Jaws 2 was scary! The burnt face shark was scary like a slasher villain!

The teenagers are super-annoying and are probably the main reason for people trashing the first sequel. But it has its moments... the rowboat attack, the photographic reveal of a shark's eye, Brody wading deeper and deeper into the ocean, where an unpleasant surprise is waiting. Those are all well-directed sequences.

In my opinion Jaws is a cinematic masterpiece, Jaws 2 is watchable, Jaws 3 was a film I really liked as a kid for reasons that are now beyond my comprehension, and Jaws The Revenge is a complete and utter fucking joke. Great video mate. 👍

the thing I noticed about the banana boat attack, is that no one even cared about the woman that got killed, all anyone was concerned with was that the one little girl was safe. In J-2 Marge's death was sad because she died a hero, putting little Sean to safety. The two saddest deaths in the franchise were Marge and Quint.

In reviews of Jaws 2, I keep hearing "The shark eats a helicopter." The shark does not EAT THE HELICOPTER!! The shark clamps its teeth on the helicopter and drags it under the water !

Jaws 2 is essentially a slasher film with a shark and I kind of love it . 3D is a complete Guilty pleasure , as I watched it so much as a child . Let's just pretend revenge didn't happen 😂

Jaws 2 is in an unfortunate position. It is nowhere the masterpiece pt. 1 was, but it also gets unfairly maligned for the crime of how bad 3 and 4 were. If the franchise stopped with 2, I don't think most people would be trashing it. For me Jaws: 5 Jaws 2: 3 1/2 Jaws 3D: 2 Jaws The Revenge: 1 3D is technically a 1 but some of the camp value bumps it up to a 2 for me

Jaws 2 isn't a terrible sequel, sure it ain't no masterpiece like the first but Jaws 2 still had incredible scenes, great performances, and some suspense! It's a decent sequel, Jaws 3-D & Jaws: The Revenge are abominations!

I think jaws 2 was actually a good movie, it doesn't deserve to be grouped in with 3 and 4

Jaws 2 felt like a true sequel. It started the horny teens trope and is a rehash. I didn't mind it.

Jaws 4 was so bad that plans for a legacy sequel are still nonexistent to this day.

How is Jaws II terrible? I thought it was more than okay

The shark doesn't "eat a helicopter". It capsizes it, like it would a boat.

Actually, in JAWS 2, the mayor eventually came on Brody's side. It was that real estate dude that was the obstacle this time.

Jaws 2 is a decent movie in terms of plot and pace. It's major detraction is that you already know what the shark looks like, so it's not as suspenseful. It's still a good movie, in my opinion (: 3 & 4 are goddamn jokes, though... Good video! 👍

Well, you call the FOURTH movie (Revenge) stupid for having that plot point about the shark STALKING the Brody family, however I think that having the BRODY's in EVERY movie in the series was what was ALREADY stupid in the FIRST PLACE, especially in the third movie (where they're grown adults living in a completely different location). Therefore, I really don't hold THAT against that fourth film, cause it was almost like an EXPLANATION, of some kind, was NEEDED at THAT point. I mean, were audiences supposed to be just left thinking that this ONE PARTICULAR FAMILY just kept repeatedly running afoul of these ABNORMALLY BIG SHARKS by pure COINCIDENCE? . .. yeah, THAT's much more plausible!

Something that makes Jaws: The Revenge an even more sad and depressing movie: The child actress who plays Ellen Brody's grandaughter was murdered, along with her mother, by her father roughly a year after the film was released. Mankind's greatest threat isn't viruses or cancer or sharks. Mankind's greatest threat is mankind. We can be angels, yes. But we can also be the worst monsters you can imagine.

Jaws 2 could not match the classic that was Jaws, but it is a good sequel. The shark attacks are well staged, with some good setpieces and Roy Scheider giving a good performance, being more paranoid and then going to rescue his kids, the mayor has a good redeeming moment (being the one to vote against the dismissal of Brody - a deleted scene that should have been left in). One of the problems is that it is more tame (almost no blood and deleted death scenes to obtain a PG rating), but it is watchable and well made. Jaws 3D had great potential to be a fun sequel with the possibilty of great setpieces in the new park setting. In fact the script is not bad (better than those of 2 and 4), but the direction is lackluster failing to genereate tension in the attacks and the effetcs were rushed and bad. But the 3d is in fact very good (and the bluray in 3d worth watching). Jaws The Revenge had better direction than 3, with some effective sequences (Sean's death, the chase in the sunken ship and the attack on the banana boat) but the story is too absurd. The original ending was better (with the shark impaled instead of exploding).

Jaws 2 is decent, I like the overall premise, and the action is pretty good.

Jaws 2 wasn't that bad sequel. Although the shark didn't attack the beach this time.

Jaws 2 isn't terrible. I really enjoyed it and I remember it mostly when I watched it as a kid back them. Definitely a worthy sequel. 3 was eh... but Jaws The Revenge was definitely bad 😅

Jaws 2 isn't actually that bad! It has some pretty hair raising moments! The scene of the shark POV chasing the waterskier is amazing! Marge's death is quite horrific despite no blood being shown! There's a great use of psychological horror (After Eddie is killed and Tina stares helplessly at the broken frame) the scuba divers exploring the reef just before the shark goes after the teens! And of course, pulling Mike Brody out of the water!! The audience reaction to that scene is pure screaming!!

I remember my dad telling me about how he saw Jaws 3D in the cinema back in the day, and complaining about how cheesy it was! Specifically he remembered "the girl bursting out of the water with dolphins and going 'YES!'"

Jaws 2 is a good sequel.

Jaws 2: "this movie is bad because it doesn't do what the first did" Aliens: "this movie is good because it doesn't do what the first did"

Jaws 2 is decent sequel. I enjoyed it. But there is nothing like the original.

If they stopped at jaws 2 they could’ve made a jaws revival movie now, like they did with too gun maverick, that would be epic and obviously only if they brought back Spielberg to direct it

I’ve always enjoyed JAWS 2 because you can see that they TRIED to make a good sequel. The problem is that the first is such a masterpiece it was going to be impossible to do. That’s why I think that JAWS 2 is a step above the bad monster movies (BMM’s) of the 70’s. In modern terms, 2 steps above something like Sharknado or those other Syfy monster movies. The less said about 3 and Revenge, the better. THAT’s solid BMM territory.

I absolutely hate all three of the sequels but man you acted like there wasn’t a single thing that worked in them which is insane to me. There are three small things that I really liked about them (which if I can only find three small things that I thought were good about them then that alone should effectively show how bad these sequels are). Firstly as someone with PTSD I loved what they did with Chief Brody in Jaws 2. For a film from 1978 it’s kind of shocking that this was done so well. His elevated fear of water, the beach shooting scene, his irrationality about this shark being out for revenge even though the new shark turning up was just a really unlucky coincidence, etc. It’s great. And wow is it hard to watch the aforementioned beach shooting scene. Seeing how afraid everyone is of him really shows how people reacted to PTSD then and sadly still do now. Secondly I love that in Jaws 4 Mrs. Kintner from the first film is seen as one the women who was there to comfort Ellen after Sean was killed. She went from hating Ellen’s husband and blaming him for her son’s death to realizing it wasn’t his fault and being a friend to Ellen after she lost her son to a shark attack like she had years prior. It was touching. I just wish it was expanded upon more than it was. And finally the way they handled Ellen’s reaction to her son’s death. It was heartbreaking. In such a bad and campy film it’s pretty incredible that this was done so well (most of which is probably due to Lorraine Gary’s stellar performance). As for Jaws 3? Yeah there’s not a single thing I like about that film. It’s just horrendous in its entirety.

Jaws 2 is not an horrendous sequel. It’s a bloody good film on its own. Sure it’s no jaws but what would be. What the hell man.

I didn't mind Jaws II. I was embarrassed after seeing Jaws 3.

Jaws 2 was scary! The helicopter scene was very scary!

I enjoyed Jaws 2 the most growing up because I was able to relate more with the younger characters and the special effects were exceptional for those days.

Hot take: jaws 3 should be remade as the premise is fun and could be a hit with better effects, writing, etc.

if you want a good JAWS sequel I recommend the JAWS 2 novel.. Unfortunately the JAWS 2 John Hancock script is incredibly rare.. The JAWS 2 novel by Hank Searls is probably the closet we will get to John Hancock's masterpiece.. I have also heard that there is a JAWS 2 comic book that is a similar story to the novel but I havent read that yet..

What is depressing about how routine 'Jaws 2' turned out is the sheer amount of hard work, thought and innovation that went into the physical production of the film. I saw an interview with director Jeannot Swarc (during the filming) in which he wonderfully articulated exactly how 'Jaws' had succeeded and how any sequel would be misguided to attempt to copy that. So no shortage of insight or knowledge and what we got was a by the numbers, padded and very flat film.

Michael Caine on "Jaws The Revenge": "Somebody said to me, 'I saw that Jaws 4. It stinks,. I haven't seen it, but I have seen the house it bought my mother, and it's marvelous!”

As an 80s kid, Jaws 2 was equally, if not more, terrifying than the original. I was legitimately traumatized by these films and I’m still afraid of the ocean.

Jaws 2 is absolutely fine, still enjoyable after all these years

I really like Jaws 2, and it had one of the most memorable taglines of any film.

Jaws 2 isn't terrible. It's not on the same level as the original Jaws bit it's very good

The Jaws franchises is the only one I know of where the shark jumps the shark.

There’s a Jaws boxset which contains Jaws 2, 3 and 4 but not the original. So you can marvel at the dumpster fire sequels but skip the amazing first movie. A real winner 👍

Jaws 2 isn't bad, fair enough it's not as good as 1 which is a classic, but it's a worthwhile watch, that I enjoy

Jaws 2 was good in its own way. Nothing could touch the original though. Now 3 & 4 were so bad, they were embarrassing!

You forgot about Jaws 19 which was released in 2015! Anyway jaws 2 is just a meh movie. Jaws 3 and 4 are boring and stupid. I never knew about the wasted potential that is jaws 3, jaws 3 humans 0 sounds interesting. And Jaws 4 is also bland, boring and bad. If I remember correctly didn't jaws 4 had different shark deaths depending on a version (one with that boat stick impalement causing a balloon like explosion and the other being just reused footage of jaws 1 shark death)? The shark psychic connection plot was funny, it reminded me of the dog flashbacks in Wes Craven's hills have eyes 2.

I remember there a Pysch flashback and the kid was afraid to go into the water but his dad couldn't take it seriously because his fears stemmed not from watching Jaws but Jaws 4.

I find it funny how Revenge doesn't even acknowledge the 3rd movie's existence 😂

Jaws 3D made me have a panic attack aged 12 on a school trip at Seaworld in France 😂 I completely forgot about the film until i started walking through the underwater tunnel and a shark swan above me. Kaws 3D came flooding back to my memories lol

When I was a Kid my brother lied to me and said sharks could roar to prove it he showed me Jaws 4 just a fun dumb kid memory .

I loved Jaws Revenge as a kid, I got it on VHS for Christmas and watched it over and over. I had no idea until recently it’s considered one of the worst movies ever made, I enjoy it far more than 3D, I struggle to get through that one, Jaws 2 is good, but obviously none of them match the greatness of the original.

Steven speilberg actually said he really liked jaws 2, only ussue was with casting the mayor. For one, as if he'd still be mayor after what he caused in first movie and then does the same thing in the 2nd AGAIN!!

“Except for Quinn cuz he’s dead” and them immediately cutting to the scene of Quinn in the sharks mouth getting dragged down made me laugh so fucking hard 😂😂😂

Jaws 2 is decent, the rest after that I agree with, especially Jaws the revenge, truly completely incompetent and truly dreadful

I saw the original Jaws as a child - I mean elementary school-age child - and that film left me terrified... of the dark. I could go swimming or to the beach and not even remember the film, but I was afraid of the *dark* for a couple days after watching Jaws... I was a weird kid; especially considering I then went on to like Jaws and its horrible video game adaptations - and this was still in elementary school! *Weird* kid...

They should have stopped after the second one. The third and fourth one stunk! Jaws 2 had more jump scares than the original.

Michael Caine on “Jaws the Revenge”: “I never saw the film, but I saw the house it paid for, and it was lovely.”

All i remember of Jaws 4 was the banana scene which made me afraid of getting on a banana boat when I was a kid, awesome video my man, deserves more views!

You're certifiable you know that? You're certifiable!!!

_BAHAJAWS_ was right there! The 1st one did have me eyeing the bathtub drain for awhile; that's as close to the ocean I'd been at that point lol

This is by far the best sequel critique I’ve ever stumbled into! Nothing but straight up laughter, and talking points to bsck it up!

I like Jaws 2 , it takes a lot to beat the original... job well done. As for Jaws 3 and revenge.... that taints 2

J4 is the one they showed on tv the most growing up so the one I watched the most, outside of the original and always looked forward to watching it on TV, it wasn't until the recent internet years that I discovered it was considered bad.

Jaws has been my favorite movie for as long as I can remember, basically as soon as I learned how to use the VCR on my own as a toddler. I never felt the same way about any of the sequels. I don't even own the sequels, that's honestly how boring they are to me. The first one makes you feel things, but the sequels honestly just put me to sleep.

I disagree with much of the Jaws 2 critique but 3 and revenge are so bad they are good. People watch these movies with too many preconceived notions. I’ve shown jaws 2, lost world, and alien 3 to people without those and they loved them. Characters can be so bland they aren’t memorable, but you can also just not pay attention to them as characters if you go in assuming they aren’t worth paying attention to. Just repeating jaws wouldn’t have worked either. They had to do something different. Doing it differently well is the core of the greatest sequels like Aliens and T2. Not saying Jaws 2 is the same quality but you can’t just rehash the original and expect the same impact

I loved Jaws 2

2 is a good sequel, 3 and 4 were not lol

as unnecessary as jaws 2 might be, it is still a pretty solid flick on its own right, its still pretty entertaining and competently made, and its still the Mona Lisa picture when compared to other shark movies of its time. jaws 3d is a guilty plesure im ashamed to admit. jaws the revenge is an abomination however jaws 5 (an unofficial sequel also known as cruel jaws) manages to be even worse in every way

For me Jaws 2 is a worthy sequel to the original masterpiece and doesn't deserve the hate some give it.

Having just rewatched Jaws 2, the biggest issue with it is that absolutely no one is aware of the shark's existence, aside from Brody. In Jaws, events lead up to the third act of three men setting out to kill the shark. In Jaws 2, nothing leads up to the third act. It's just another Tuesday and some teenagers decided to go sailing.

I loved JAWS the revenge! Saw it twice in theaters. It’s a bad film! Yet I’ll watch it when I catch it on tv

Please don't say jaws 2 in this situation! Because it made a box office money at the action horror movie. The original Jaws never showed this brutal shark attacks in movie history. It suddenly shows up later! My great information for today. Have a great fabulous wonderful day.

25:38 You think the shark sounds like a lion? It always sounded more like the Bumble snow monster from Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer to me. LMAO 🤣🤣🤣

I literally laughed the entire time you were explaining jaws the revenge. Made me realize that yeah its a dumb movie 😂

They was one movie, Jaws. The rest were trash.

As a kid in 1975, the JAWS movie poster scared the heck out of me.

Don't understand the hate on jaws 2..I love it...watched 3 once ,4 nope...should ended after 2. .. no Brody no jaws

I am so glad i found your channel you are hilarious!!!!! 😊

3% of Jaws the Revenge is dope - the banana boat scene specifically. 96% of it is atrocious. 1% gets a 👍🏻 just for Michael Caine

Peter Griffin’s movie would be much better. “RAAWWRR!!” “It’s Bigger Jaws!”

As others have said, Jaws 2 isn't so bad, but Jaws 3 and Jaws: The Revenge are utterly awful!

I enjoy the sequels. They have their own enjoyable factors.

Jaws 2 is one of the most great sequels on cinema history!Please!❤

The biggest disappointment to me is Jaws 2 because it chose the easy, lazy route with rehashing the first movie's characters rather than letting them change. Imagine if the town saw Brody as a hero and he got too big for his britches. Maybe his zeal and overconfidence to go after the shark this time almost got someone killed or something. Maybe the town has a new Mayor and the story of the shark attacks has made that a whole new part of the town's tourist trade so when a new shark shows up he's excited about it instead of dismissive. Hell, make Quint a local folk hero too, and other fishermen are anxious to replicate him to a disturbing degree. There are really interesting things that COULD have been done in a sequel, but they did nothing.

As most seem to agree with here, Jaws 2 is a good movie. Not a classic like Jaws but well-made and very entertaining all the same. Williams' soundtrack is superb too. Best viewed as a teenager. Sounds like you only saw it as a tired, over-cynical adult.

You are so under-appreciated!!! Please add a thank you pay button so I can pay you for your work. Please. I don’t feel right watching without thanking you properly.

I don’t give a shit what you say, Jaws 2 is more than passable! It’s a PERFECT sequel!!!! If you thought Jaws 2 wasn’t scary, that’s because watching the original so many fucking times has made you numb. If you found yourself in the situation Eddie was in or Doug for that matter I bet your ass would be so scared you’d shit your pants!

Jaws Revenge, a Lifetime TV original. A woman struggles to protect her va-jay-jay from a shark using her psychic powers. 🦈

Jaws: Legendary Jaws 2: Unnecessary But Entertaining Jaws 3: Should’ve Been Called Something Else Jaws 4: Why Does This Even Exist?!!

This narrator obviously was not even around when Jaws 2 came out so he doesn’t know the feeling of the time, the buzz in the air. The excitement this film caused. The Lines at the theater. ‘Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water’! That trailer was freaking scary! The other two films, he’s right they were terrible. Shameless cash grabs. But, Jaws Two, fit the time period it was shown in. Today? Campy and Silly but in 1978, I couldn’t go into the ocean for years!
