Jaws ( Original 1975 )

3D Movie Review

Written By: Jake Jarvis

3D

Jaws (1975) is the movie that ushered in the summer blockbuster. In theory it makes perfect sense to do a 3D conversion of the original Jaws movie. Please don’t get this movie confused with the third Jaws movie which was released as Jaws 3D in 1983. Jaws 3D (1983) is terrible movie, but the 3D makes that movie fun and entertaining to watch. So how is it to watch the first and greatest Jaws movie in 3D? Unfortunately its not awesome. Don't get me wrong, it's fine for a conversion. It's nowhere as deep as Marvel's recent conversions and pales considerably to being filmed directly in 3D. The opening shark attack is too dark for good 3D depth. That being said the movie has several bright scenes in daylight that look nice in 3D. The movie also has some scenes on the water and underwater that look good in 3D. Overall the 3D aspect of Jaws (1975) is fine.

Final Verdict: Good 3D

Movie

Jaws was an instant classic in 1975, and it's still a classic in 2022.

The plot of Jaws is fairly simple. A great white shark makes Amity Island its hunting ground a week before the fourth of July holiday. After a young woman's chewed torso washes up on shore, Sheriff Brody (Roy Scheider) wants to close the beaches, mayor Vaughn (Murray Hamilton) doesn't think the risk warrants losing the summer tourist income for the town. After a couple more shark attacks, the town finally hires scruffy fisherman Quint (Robert Shaw) to hunt down the killer shark. Brody and a marine biologist Hopper (Richard Dreyfuss), board Quint's boat and they all go to the sea and hunt down the great white. Jaws is one of the greatest movies of all time. Jaws has an incredible script that still works nearly 50 years later. Jaws has perfect casting with likable and relatable characters that all give wonderful performances. The score of Jaws is iconic and is some of John Williams best music.

  Jaws is a must see movie for anyone interested in cinema or wants to watch a great shark thriller. If you can only see this in IMAX, go for it.

Final Verdict: 10/10

Thor Love and Thunder 3D Movie Review

Thor Love and Thunder 3D Movie Review

3D

My heart sank during the opening shot of Thor Love And Thunder. It was the flattest of all flat shots. Essentially the shot had a shadow on dry land, and it had zero depth. Fortunately, for 3D enthusiasts, this issue is promptly rectified with loads of cgi eye candy. Most of the long shots don't have great depth, but the mid and close up shots make up for that with impressive depth and a few subtle pop outs. Some 3D is muddled in a few darker scenes, but not all. Some of the best 3D scenes include; scenes with the Necro sword, the exercise montage, the flying goats, naked Thor, and finally the cave battle with a rabbit. Overall Thor Love and Thunder is well worth seeing in 3D.

Final Verdict: Great 3D

Movie

Thor Love And Thunder is tearjerker story told as a rom-com with super-heroes in a movie made for teenagers. Taika Waititi's take on Gor the God Butcher and Mighty Thor will probably ruffle the feathers of comic book purists. This movie might also upset many fans of the Marvel movie formula.

Love and Thunder feels more like one of those British Ealing comedies (The only thing missing was Sir Alec Guinness) with its dry and dark humor. Thor Love And Thunder doesn’t feel like your typical “Marvel movie”. Without giving away spoilers, this movie shakes up Thor's status quo. Christian Bale is incredible playing Gor the god butcher. Gor is a more traditional comic book villain. Bale really sells Gor as a sympathetic and relatable character. Russell Crow is great at playing the character of Zeus. Zeus is a corrupt, obnoxious, petty, dictator (just like he was in greek/roman mythology). Zeus has a stereotypical Mediterranean accent instead of the typical Shakespearean British accent. A lot of the old gang is back in Love and Thunder, including Natalie Portman as Dr, Jane Foster (who is also The Mighty Thor). This movie even includes a cameo from the Guardians of the Galaxy. Love and Thunder has many funny jokes and some decent action. I didn't find the mix of humor and drama jarring, but you mileage may vary. If you can overlook some of the characters acting stupider than normal, you will have a really good time with Thor Love And Thunder. Be sure to wait around for the mid credit and post credit scenes after the movie concludes.

Thor Love And Thunder is not perfect, but it is perfectly good. This movie won’t be for everyone but I really enjoyed it.

Final Verdict: 8/10
