After another deadly shark attack, Ellen Brody decides she has had enough of New England's Amity Island and moves to the Caribbean to join her son, Michael, and his family. But a great white shark has followed her there, hungry for more lives.
Jaws: The Revenge is widely regarded as one of the worst sequels ever made. The central premise — a great white shark personally stalking and following a specific human across the Atlantic out of revenge — is laughably illogical even by creature-feature standards. The plot is threadbare and nonsensical, the acting from a largely uninspired cast (including a famously paycheck-cashing Michael Caine) ranges from weak to passable, and the cinematography is unremarkable TV-movie quality at best. It adds absolutely nothing new to the franchise or the genre, recycling tired shock beats without tension or craft. The climax, featuring an inexplicably roaring shark and a baffling explosion, is broadly considered one of the most derided endings in Hollywood blockbuster history.
