REVIEW: "The Shark Is Broken" at George Street Playhouse

by Gary Wien
published 2025-05-12

(NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ) — In the film, Jaws, the main star was a shark that wasn't even seen until the movie's 80th minute.

It not only looks incredible, but moves around and provides the 3D effect that Jaws 3 wishes it had. My first thought was that it’s such a shame that this will likely be taken apart following the run.
