Jaws (1975) Always a fun summer flick. Gets me in the mood for beaches, sun, and coastal shores. I know, I'm an odd one. To me Jaws was a horror thriller as much as it was adventure. I saw Jaws as the great fish chase, the Moby-Dick of shark flicks. It was adventurous, thrilling, and gave you a sense of exhilaration to watch. You had the Ahab, the Ishmael and the QueeQueg. The madman with a lust for hunting the leviathan. The everyman, with whom the audience could relate to. And the bizarre man who knows more than he let's on, but for once is clearly out of his element. It was simply a great seafaring thrill ride.
