Watched Jaws 3-D so you don't have to. You're welcome.

Did we really need this? Jaws 3-D exists purely because a studio executive needed to secure a yacht down payment.

Counted four explosions before the studio logo finished. Jaws 3-D knows its audience.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Jaws 3-D actually is?
Rewatched Jaws 3-D last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

The cinematography in Jaws 3-D is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Director clearly thought Jaws 3-D was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Jaws 3-D?
Everyone praising the Jaws 3-D performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Jaws 3-D?
Honestly, Jaws 3-D would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.
