First things first: How the hell is the mayor from "Jaws" still in office in this sequel? And why didn't he learn anything from the events of the first film? The answer, it seems, is that, at its core, the studio wanted to make the same movie again, only bigger. And Mayor Vaughn (Murray Hamilton) played an important role in Steven Spielberg's masterpiece. Furthermore, the plot is clearly similar in general. Only the number of victims is larger this time. The cast is once again led by Roy Scheider, and although he had no desire to be in the film at all, he does his job pretty well again. For the rest of the cast, this is less true. Instead of Robert Shaw and Richard Dreyfuss, this time we follow a bunch of annoying teenagers. Of course, this is no more interesting than the great chemistry of the trio in the first part. Spielberg is also noticeably missing from the director's chair. The film is competently directed but has nothing special about it. All in all, however, "Jaws 2" is still a solid shark movie. Nonetheless, it fades into obscurity in the shadow of its predecessor.

Simply put, Jaws is a movie that never needed a sequel. It forever should have stood on its own. Fortunately, this sequel isn't bad. If you are a fan of the first then this one is likely worth checking out! Rating: 2.5/5 - 70% - Worth Watching

Jaws 2 gets a bad rep just because it is the sequel to one of the "great", not because it's a particularly bad film. Sure... It is nowhere near the first one in quality, but it IS exciting, and it is better than a lot of the imitations that the phenomenon of Jaws brought. So... in my humble opinion, Jaws 2 deserves some love now and then.

The sequel to the great movie Jaws is Ok to watch, though far from the original in terms of suspense and acting. Good entertainment.

Adequate but still entertaining sequel has some okay practical effects with the shark though still really silly given what happened in the last one nobody in charge would listen to Brody. Nothing overly special and doubt I'd revisit this anytime soon, but an okay sequel. **3.25/5**

A disappointing follow-up.

I enjoyed Roy Scheider's performance and the core action sequences near the end, but everything else is a bit boring. 'Jaws 2' puts high focus on the teenagers, though their story never possesses any intrigue. The effects for the shark, meanwhile, are a step down from t More

Jaws 2 is a sequel to one of the most popular movies of all time. While it is no where near the quality of the original, it is by far the best of the sequels. Roy Scheider returns as Chief Brody and once again, he fears another shark is roaming the waters but no one believes him. The first half is a More

**Excellent sequel!**

Intense sequel directed by Jeannot Szwarc (who also directed episodes of Columbo alongside Steven Spielberg!)

Performances here are every bit as good as the original and Szwarc manages to infuse of great sense of style to the proceedings - building upon and adding even m More
