Action
One of the most striking moments of any movie is a sudden appearance of one of the main characters. Often, their entrances are not particularly extraordinary but there are some that are well-executed and memorable. Jaws is a movie about a shark attack but a full view of the shark itself was not provided until more than an hour into the film. In this scene, Police Chief Brody had the task of throwing bloody meat overboard to bait the shark. As he tosses the meat chunks into the water, a monstrous great white shark rises out and nearly bites his hand off. This occurs about an hour and twenty minutes from the start of the movie and is truly a spine-tingling moment.
