Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story

The authorized documentary celebrating the film that redefined Hollywood, 50 years after its premiere. Featuring rare archival footage and interviews with acclaimed Hollywood directors alongside Steven Spielberg, top shark scientists, and conservationists, the film uncovers the behind-the-scenes chaos and how the film launched the summer blockbuster, inspired a new wave of filmmakers, and paved the way for shark conservation that continues today.
Was good, enjoyed it, and there was plenty of new material here to what I've seen in other Jaws documentaries etc, but just felt a little bit disappointed after having expectations of it being a lot longer for something which could easily have had hours upon hours of interviews, outtakes, anecdotes, to go along with that newer material. Maybe a bit unfair on my part but I had hoped for more. That said, what IS here is definitely worth seeing, particularly if you love Jaws - and if you don't, you're just wrong 😊
