Jaws: Quint (Robert Shaw)

Comments for death : Jaws: Quint (Robert Shaw).

I found this kill very scary, since I saw the film when I was 7. The only thing I didn't agree with was the rubber shark, as it was hard not to notice the fakess. Still I enjoyed the movie, and the final victim's dead was the best one.

Well this made me cringe in the cinema back in 1975, a little over the top for an “A” certificate here in the UK, today the DVD is rated 12 by the BBFC, but even 12 is too low a rating I think a 15 certificate should be in order its not a pleasant scene at all the sound of him hollowing yelling and kicking “Bruce, the shark” is not cool.

No matter I still enjoy this film no matter how many times I’ve seen it nor how many times I see poor ole Quint die.

It's actually a 'PG' in the UK. The DVD is upgraded because the documentary uses the f-word.

My reviews at ThatGuywiththeGlasses.com!

I actually LIKE the fake looking shark! It makes it look more monstrous IMO!

My main problem is that it names Quint as a (Minor) character. He could be argued to be the second most principle driving character in the story! Classic film, classic death.

He should listen to Brody.

I kind of felt sorry for Quint, but then again, he agreed to hunt the shark.

His death in the film is different to the book. In the book it's actually more his fault, because he was harpooning the shark, and his leg got stuck in the rope, and the shark dragged him under.
