Summary: Star Wars
Review: This is a great movie with incredible special effects. Just because it is the beginning of the Star Wars saga is enough of a reason for it to a great movie

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great begining to a fabulous epic!
Review: This is a great movie, and fits in perfectly with the rest of the movies. I have absolutely no idea why this movie was nominated for worst movie of the year! This story fits right between Empire and Jedi. Mainly the only problem with the movie was Lloyd's bad acting skills. Jar Jar Binks is an incredible character, and should win an award for his performance. Ahmed Best was awesome as the voice of the computer animated creature. A MUST SEE!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Movie......Not so great star wars movie
Review: This is a great movie, if it were a stand-a lone film, but it's not, it's part of the star wars series. It's got great special effects, a descent plot, and lots of action. Too bad the jar jar binks character was so stupid, and Jake Lloyd couln't do drama if his life depended on it.

Plot - 8/10 This is a descent plot for the first episode of the pre-trilogy. They use too many big words and government lingo, and most kids under 12 will have no idea what they're talking about. BUt the trade federation forms a blockade around a small naboo planet. The queen sends two jedi knights, obi wan and qui gonn to negotiate. The negotiations fail, and they uncover a plan that has the trade federation invading the Naboo. Qui Gonn and obi go to naboo, and find aid with the Gungans. They rescue the queen, and escape the blockade. Their ship is damadged on their way to coruscant. they meet young anakin skywalker for the first time, and the rest is history.

Sound - the sound in this movie is great. Especially during the obi wan and qui gonn vs darth maul lightsaber battle. The music is the other half that the battle was the best battle yet. The sound effects were also great, with every lightsaber beam, and laser bolt flying on the screen, it makes the viewing experience a better listening experience too.

Acting - bad acting. Except for darth maul, captain panaka, and Qui gonn. the rest was all bad. period.

Action - this movie delivers a ton of action. Their are many action scenes.....qui gonn obi wan vs trade federation droids opening, the underwater chase, the naboo ship escaping the blockade, the pod race, and the final four battles. Naboo fighters vs trade federation ship, darth maul vs 2 jedis, the gun fight inside the naboo palace, and the Gungan army vs the Droid army. all great action scenese.

I just hope attack of the clones will clear up some of the confuscion caused by this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hype
Review: This is a great movie. Its unfortunate that it was hyped up as it was. Those who loved the movie did not get all hyped up about it. But those who did get hyped up and listened to what the critics had to say about it, were all disappointed. There is great action, a story line that filled in allot of info that the other movie left you wondering about and introduced characters. Enjoy this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great!!!
Review: This is a great star wars movie not as good as the imperium strikes back or return of the jedi but surtenly better than the overated first film that was boring.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Marketing Priorities Puts Script in a Galaxy Far, Far Away
Review: This is a lame excuse for a film, be it a Star Wars film or another film. George Lucas certainly spent more money and time on the toy and burger chain tie-ins than on the script. That's what happens when special effects and stunts saturate a film such as this that has no substance--and howlingly bad acting to boot! So the DVD is loaded with extras--everything to camouflage a poor film!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great DVD!
Review: This is a must have for Star Wars fans and just plain movie fans. It can get you into the mind of George Lucas and the folks who did work on it. Also the second disk is full of cool and funny stuff.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pure innocent entertainment!
Review: This is a really entertaining film with great techinical effects and the visual feeling of the film is perfect. The dialouge could have been cooler but the actors look good in their roles and it's just an escape to another world for circa two hours. I recommend it as an entertainment but nothing more.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: really great, i want 2 and 3 now
Review: this is a really good movie if you like star wars. the story and effects are great, but jar jar binks isnt a star warsy character. he was annoying and interrupted the mood in most of the scenes. oh well, 4 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A good addistion
Review: This is a really good movie, furthering the original trilogy wonderfully. The plot is good, and the special effects are awsome!
