The first 'Jaws' is a well known classic. If you get film nerds in a room together and bring up 'Jaws,' they won't stop talking about it. That's because it was new, surprising, and most importantly, well crafted. Two Jaws movies later and the surprise most definitely wore off. That and the well crafted nature of the first movie was completely gone. The audience may have been screaming for more Jaws, but never listen to audiences. They have no idea what they're talking about.
'Jaws: The Revenge' was made in 1987 and stars Michael Caine and Mario Van Peebles. Mario Van Peebles would later star in 'Solo,' also a bad movie, while Michael Caine ended up in dozens of movies that we love. This movie tried to blow out the world of Jaws, forgetting that what audiences found most interesting and terrifying was the juxtaposition of everyday life with unknown danger.
