 Plot Synopsis by Erik: Starring Louis Gossett, Jr., as “Calvin Bouchard,” Jaws 3 tells the tale of
a theme park gone haywire. Dennis Quaid plays Michael Brody, son of the
first and second film’s Sheriff Brody, who works as a contractor at Sea
World, um . . . Florida? Brody has a serious girlfriend, Kathryn, who trails
dolphins at the park. One day, trouble besets the couple when one of
Brody’s workers is eaten by a shark. At this point “Calvin Bouchard,”
boss of Sea World, calls in a world renowned shark hunter to catch the
creature. Kathryn makes an impassioned plea to bring it in alive. After
some 3-D hoohah (did I mention this film was originally presented in
3-D? It’s not anymore, but all the lame 3-D gags are still in the film),
they capture a little baby great white that could not have killed a lima
bean. After the shark dies because "Calvin Bouchard" puts it on
display, Kathryn makes a horrifying conclusion . . . "It wasn’t the shark,
it was its mother." Some more 3-D effects ahoy and you get the climatic
conclusion you’ve come to expect from a Jaws film. Watch for a pre-Back
to the Future Lea Thompson and her immortal line, "It's okay! I’m on the
ski team!" |
