Jaws: The Revenge releases. The ending left many filmgoers confused. In his scathing review of the film, Roger Ebert says that he cannot believe "that the director, Joseph Sargent, would film this final climactic scene so incompetently that there is not even an establishing shot, so we have to figure out what happened on the basis of empirical evidence." In its predecessor, Mike is an engineer for SeaWorld, whereas in "Jaws: The Revenge" he is a marine research scientist. One of the Universal press releases for "Jaws: The Revenge" refers to "Jaws: The Revenge" as the "third film of the remarkable "Jaws" trilogy."
