Jaws
The middle rounds aren't kind to Jaws. But put it in a final, and it becomes one of the tougher matchups on the platform. At 47% overall, it's deceptive. The film that invented the summer blockbuster still carries a primal charge fifty years later. On a ballot, it benefits from being both a piece of cinema history and a genuinely great time at the movies.
Synopsis
When the seaside community of Amity finds itself under attack by a dangerous great white shark, the town's chief of police, a young marine biologist, and a grizzled shark hunter embark on a desperate quest to kill the beast before it strikes again.
50% opening, 35% semis, 60% finals. The middle-round dip filters out the undecided — what's left in the final is concentrated conviction.
The Departed at 50% is as close to a dead heat as the platform produces. Every vote matters in this one. The extremes tell a clear story — 100% against Dawn of the Dead at one end, 32% against Jurassic Park at the other.
In Spielberg vs. Scorsese, the path to the title runs through Saving Private Ryan — and Jaws takes it at 69%. A dominant champion.
Steven Spielberg's 9 films span a wide range: Raiders of the Lost Ark at 72% to War of the Worlds at 0%. Jaws sits at #5.
