Summary: starwars
Review: I think the STARWARS Saga is one of the best motion pictures ever created. And thanks to George Lucas. who, with a dream, Changed how people think and live. With STARWARS, not only it was a good motion picture. But, with its state-of-the-art graphics, and ground breaking technology, Set the stage for other motion pictures, Who would not be possible. And episode #1 is the example of what can be accomplished with a desire and a dream. Thanks George Lucas for making our world a little brighter.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wow! That's all I can say.
Review: I think this is one of the best Star Wars movies; much better than the first (ANH) and the third (ROJ) ones. It is debatable if it is better than the Empire Strike Back (ESB). I think that ESB has the best beginning while the Phantom Menace (TPM) has the best ending. What an incredible lightsable battle at the end! Darth Maul rocks!

It is worth buying this movie just for the ending and pod racing. I read some bad reviews written by some people who didn't seem to understand the movie. If you like the first three Star Wars movies, you will like this movie no matter what. The movie has a great story (unlike others have suggested); everything will make sense if you see the classic trilogy first. Then, you will notice that every dialogue and action has deeper meanings than it appears to have. Enjoy the movie; you will like it.

If you have a little more money, get the collector's edition. Although it doesn't have much extra, except 15-minute behind-the-scene footage, you may want to see the movie in the widescreen format. The movie looks whole lot better in that way. May the force be with you.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: STAR WARS: EPISODE I: THE PHANTOM MENACE
Review: I think this movie is great. The saber duels and 3d are one of the best I ever seen.
The negative about this movie is that jarjar is in it. Did chewy make stupid jokes in episode4-6? No! And that thing about our cells talking to the force? I mean, comeon! The force is supposed to be something that you cannot explain, like God, not anything logical that scientists have proof of.
And the story are a little bit shaking. Anakin was a good P I L- O T when obiwan met him, not a R A C E R. How can he then learn exactly how to fly a fighter in a minute when adult people learn to fly only after a year? Sure luke is a good fighter, but i dont think he flied when he was 9 years old. I know Lucas can do better than this, its clear that he did this movie to make money. But I read that he creates episode 2 especially for 12-year old children, "if adults like it, then its just a plus", he said that on an interview.
We can only hope the force is still with him, like it was 30 years ago...

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: The most Played out Prequel
Review: I think this movie was played out along time ago but to go and make the first episode was a waste of time and money. I think that the other star wars episodes were fine and then they have to go along and make a new one. This movie has been played out to many times

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Ok this is pretty good

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Every Saga Has A Beginning!
Review: I think true Star Wars fans will be the only ones who really appreciate the prequels. We all have our complaints about any movie we watch and the only complaint I have with this one is the kid who played Anakin and some of his dialogue like "Yippy!" The main things I like about this movie are: Senator Palpatines' first step toward rising to the Emperor, Queen Amidala, Ewan McGregor as Obi Wan Kenobi, Darth Maul, and the battle of Darth Maul, Obi Wan, and Qui Gon Gin! I remember how breathtaking the effects were when I first viewed this movie in the theatres and the Dvd captures all of that nicely in widescreen. The dvd even has a second disk of extras including documentaries, deleted scenes, etc. If you weren't satisfied with Phantom Menace, Attack of The Clones will make you appreciate the movie in a whole new way!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I think you might have missed the point...
Review: I thought "The Phantom Menace" is a great movie for a couple reasons. Let me first address the most apticipated, and heavily criticized first story in what will soon be the greatest sextet ever. You must first remember that one of the hardest things to do, in Sci-Fi no less, is work backwards. People in this genre pay too close attention to detail and would catch the smallest of inaccuracy. With that being said, Episode 1 did what it should have done, provided a background for the coming 5 movies. Episodes 4-6 were so great because the movies started with a plot and a conflict, Episode 1 had to provide it's own. The Dual Scene at the end is very well thought out and emotional as well. The scene where Darth Mual, Quin-Jon, and Obi-Won are waiting for those laser partitions to shut off is very intense. There are two faults for this movie: Jar-Jar Binks and CGI. Jar-Jar Binks is one of the worst characters in Sci-Fi lore and Lucas overused the CGI technology. Other than that, buy this movie because it's the first staple in what will become the greatest saga ever.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Extremely entertaining!
Review: I thought Episode I was very entertaining and fun to watch. I love Jar-Jar! The technical expertise is amazing. The characters aren't quite as engaging as Luke, Han, and Leia -- but this is a movie I can watch over and over.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: What did you expect...
Review: I thought it was a good movie that did a good job setting the stage for Episodes II and III. If Lucas was guilty of anything, it was trying to lay too much groundwork at the expense of character development. People who say that it was a "kids movie" seem to have forgotten that the original trilogy was in the same vein-- an entertaining movie without sex or profanity.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: it was pretty good
Review: i thought it was a great movie and i plan on owning it as soon as it comes out. it was the first movie my niece watched and she was 1/2 year old. she liked it but then she is really in to action now, any how, enugh about my niece. the only thing i didnt like was it was mostly based on battle and it didnt have too many comical things in it. it had a very good story though.
