Amazon.com:
Ushering in the age of the inferior sequel, Jaws 2 was essentially a license to print money. Indeed, the film did very well despite blatantly replicating the plot of Steven Spielberg's original, though to lesser effect. Roy Scheider returns as Martin Brody, sheriff of the small island town of Amity. Just as the beachside resort is rebounding from the previous movie's shark attacks, another great white is snacking on divers and water-skiers. Naturally, the town fathers don't want to confront reality and choose to proceed with a lucrative sailing regatta, resulting in a grisly loss of life. Besides the fact that director Jeannot Szwarc takes an impersonal, workaday approach to the film, Jaws 2 manages to be both stylistically flat and openly cynical about its commercial intentions. Of chief interest here is Scheider's performance, which wisely reflects the emotional fallout from Brody's last trauma in his obsessive behavior here. --Tom Keogh

A fun action packed film with a terror beneath the still waters of Amity. Jaws 2 is actually the first Jaws I saw, and I loved it as a kid, because the first was too scary for me too see. I still love them all except for Jaws the Revenge.

This is a BAD idea. No plot that's worth mentioning or charaters that are likable. Skip this, but see the first.

Not as good as the first one, but worth watching. I am starting to root for the shark.

Jaws two is ok, just not great.
The shark is still cool, but it's basically the first movie remade poorly.
The script is ok, the acting is ok.
All in all it's not a must see.
If you liked one, you may want to rent this one.
