    Not Your Grandpa's Betamax

    Excellent quality on the 4K disc over a standard Blu-ray edition. You will see, hear and feel a difference. Many times an older film like Jaws doesn't really look all that great in 4K. But not with this edition. They took much time and energy to make it have the look and sound of a new release. So, that's why you should get this one. Here's why you should pick up a steelbook copy of anything from Best Buy at curbside or in store: They ship steelbook editions in a bubble envelope. No cardboard slats on each side, no bubble pack. This won't be very cool if Grandpa's heavy Betamax is getting shipped right beside it, and lands on it. It could really be damaged easy with what they use to ship.

    I first saw this movie when I was a kid on vacation at the beach when I was young. I loved watching it with my kids.

    The 4K UHD version is not as great as I hoped, but better than I feared.

    JAWS is a classic. No doubt. I hadn't seen it in years. I did enjoy rewatching it, and I have little doubt that this 4K UHD presentation is the best it has ever looked. My disappointment is perhaps due largely to the glowing reviews online from professionals who adore the film. For them, seeing it look so clean and detailed was enough, and deserving of high praise. What I found was that the HDR was lacking here. It looked like another good transfer, but lacking HDR specular highlights. Maybe it wasn't graded at a very high nit level, or the highlights were not bumped in order to attain the original theater-like presentation. If that were the case, then a 4K HDR presentation only brings minor improvements over a 1080p Blu-ray since the resolution doesn't make that much of a difference to most people given the size of their display and the distance they sit from it, along with their visual acuity. Some color improvements could be gained, but that's it. Don't get me wrong. It looks good. It probably is an improvement over the 1080p Blu-ray, but not a huge one. Still, at the price point, and for the bonus features, it's not a bad deal, especially if you don't own the previous Universal 1080p Blu-ray disc.

    Classics shark film that started it all. Blu-ray adds some clarity to the picture quality. Any shark movie fan should own this; and Blu-ray...a plus!

    Forget The Meg...this is still the best shark movie, which is why so much of it was copied by The Meg.

    The packaging is great with some lovely artwork of the shark on the front with a 3D effect and the first death of the film on the back. The film has been edited to improve the flaws that this 70s movie had. Backgrounds have been tweaked and other small flaws to make this film better than it was originally. If you are looking for the authentic film you will need to buy a pre 2008 dvd for the actual film as was made. This new edited version is fantastic and only eagle eyes views would notice the correction made for this film.

    Yep! Its a classic and its even better in 4K. Also, this movie still was the only movie that had me terrified of sharks at age 6. Back in 1976 when this came out I was way to young to go to the movies but my dad boght and braught home the soundtrack and played it and I in my youth believed that this made the movie even more vivid, for me and now as an adult its way more then a classic " men against nature story " its a piece of art.

    Jaws was a great movie when first released and remains even better here. Video tape was bad, Laser Disc pretty good. DVD was an improvement. The 4K is again a step above even the blu ray. Blacks look great. Everything wonderful. This includes the extra material brought over from the laser disc box set. This is all inclusive, the best Jaws available. Worth the upgrade.

    Jaws 4k is a great up grade from the bluray. The picture quality is top notch and I was surprised at the fuller sound of the release. It is an improvement over the bluray. A must buy for any Jaws fan.

    The job they did re-mastering this movie from the original film in order to convert it to 4K is incredible. The movie is beautiful in 4K. I had never watched Jaws in its entirety, so that was nice too. A classic film. I also learned that the "Indianapolis Speech" was based on a true event during World War 2!

    My absolute favorite film. A couple of times it seems like the dialog gets lost on the Dolby Atmos soundtrack but it is very minor. For the most part the picture and sound quality are amazing. I noticed details I had never seen before even with owning the DVD and seeing the movie in the theater.

    I didn’t notice a huge difference with the 4K version Vs the Blu-ray version as far as picture quality goes. Being such a old movie there is only so much they can clean up in the film. 4K looks best in movies filmed with 4K cameras and in animation movies.

    The online offer was a great price to purchase a movie series collection. The products were in new condition. The only complaint would be availability of the product near me. Shortly after advertising the offer, our local store ran out. I was traveling near another store soon, so bought and picked up on a later date.

    Great classic movie and steelbook. Only thing is don’t expect a clear movie. Some old movies are restored in 4k and look great for their age. This is more like an upgraded bluray version of the movie. Still worth owning but wish it looked a little better.

    If you get the steel book version you get no book. I thought it had the book with all the photos and information. No it does not.and I am sad. I’ll wait for prices to drop and get the regular one later. As for the rest it’s fine and the steel is cool.
