In Jaws 2 most of the surviving gang from the first film, including Roy Scheider and Lorraine Gary, returned to take on a larger, meaner shark and the resort town of Amity once again suffered from a PR nightmare.

IMDb Movie of the Day
“If you want to understand me,” Charlie Chaplin says mid-way through Richard Attenborough's would-be epic Chaplin, “watch my movies.” Unfortunately, the statement proves altogether too accurate. Chaplin was perhaps the first world famous entertainer; his comedies combined physical grace and impassioned humanism to dazzling effect. Chaplin, however, provides only brief glimpses into the work itself, the mechanics of moviemaking. Instead, it spends a frustratingly large amount of time on his relationships with younger women, which are mildly lurid but unrevealing. It is ultimately a morose, self-serious film—a disservice to the world's finest comedian. Nonetheless, it is worth seeing, if only for one reason: Robert Downey Jr. Downey's performance (nominated for a Best Actor Oscar) is nothing short of uncanny. He disappears into Chaplin—the gestures, the walk, the smile—and the moments when he is allowed to goof are priceless. One is left craving more, wishing that the camera would linger for a while on Downey being Chaplin being funny. Chaplin overcame personal flaws to make brilliant art; Downey has been unable to do so, but Chaplin provides a tantalizing glimpse of his potential.

Movie/TV Quote of the Day
- Will
- You know, I think I understand what you're like now. You're very beautiful and you think men are only interested in you because you're beautiful, but you want them to be interested in you because you're you. The problem is, aside from all that beauty, you're not very interesting. You're rude, you're hostile, you're sullen, you're withdrawn. I know you want someone to look past all that at the real person underneath but the only reason anyone would bother to look past all that is because you're beautful. Ironic, isn't it? In an odd way you're your own problem.
- Laura
- Sorry. Wrong line. I am not taken aback by your keen insight and suddenly challenged by you.
