The original film begins when a young woman is killed by a shark while skinny-dipping near the New England tourist town of Amity Island. Police chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider) wants to close the beaches. But mayor Larry Vaughn (Murray Hamilton) overrules him, fearing that the loss of tourist revenue will cripple the town. Ichthyologist Matt Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) and also grizzled ship captain Quint (Robert Shaw) offer to help Brody capture the killer beast. And the trio engages in an epic battle of man vs. nature.

The film sports an 98% approval rating over on Rotten Tomatoes. The Critics Consensus: Compelling, well-crafted storytelling and a judicious sense of terror ensure Steven Spielberg’s Jaws has remained a benchmark in the art of delivering modern blockbuster thrills.
