Summary: Send a Message.
Review: I think that DVD enthusiasts should send a message to Mr. Lucas and not buy the video nor the DVD when he releases it in the year 3000, or when ever. Star Wars and THX are synonymous with one another. Star Wars means digital, 5.1 sound and awesome video clarity. You can not experience this with the analog VHS release. It's a shame that the movie industry thinks it can make us wait on their terms. I remember when the movie mongers who made the Titanic tried to do the same thing. And when they released the the DVD version I chose not to buy it. Let them suffer and eat the loss. Again send a message to Mr. Lucas and make "him" wait instead.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Feel The Power Of The Force Again.
Review: I saw this movie in theaters once and I never forgot any of the special scenes. It was excellent. Seeing new heroes, new villains, and lots of new advantures. I have to say it's way better than the Star Wars that we know today. Everyone, give this 5 stars everytime you see it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Wow, talk about a bad actting, writting, and directing
Review: Wow, I was hoping that it would be a good movie, but I now know, that you can't expect a good movie, from a cheap billionare who cuts corners every chance he gets. Like he dosn't have enough money. Some of the worst actting I have ever seen, and the visual effects weren't great either. You would think with all the money he has, he would spent it to make a great movie, but I guess I was wrong.

Summary: waste of time
Review: watch the curling matches on CBC instead

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I loved this movie!
Review: As a loyal Star Wars fan, I eagerly awaited the release of Episode I. George Lucas did not disappoint me. The effects were out-of-this-world. The scene in the planet's core was awesome. Obi-Wan was hot, and Anakin Skywalker was a doll.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Why do some people hate this?
Review: I just don't understand? How could anyone hate this? This movie was great, and I definitly think it lived up to the hype. I know that Jar-Jar was in the movie for the younger audience, but I thought he was funny. He also by far did not ruin the movie. Liam Neeson and Ewan McGregor did an excellent job on acting. They both had to act like they were talking to Jar-Jar when he wasn't even really there. That just shows you how good of actors they are, though Ewan didn't do as good as Liam. Natilie Portman did a good job and so did Jake Lyold, but he can't act as good as the boy in The Sixth Sense, but he still did a good job. The guy who played Darth Maul( I think his name is Ray Park) was so cool. Instead of just standing there and fighting like Darth Vader in the previous Star Wars, Darth Maul is doing all these moves with his lightsaber and doing flips in the air that are amazing. I bet it took a lot of practice for Liam, Ewan, and Ray to do the lightsaber duel at the end of the movie, since Ray had to teach the two first. I just wish Darth Maul was in the movie more. The special effects are just about the best I've ever seen in a movie, with great character and landscape detail. The critics don't know what there talking about, and you people complaining need to just sit down and enjoy it. If you don't like this movie, your either not a true Star Wars fan, or you just plain don't like movies. May the Force be with you.

Summary: Plot=okay, experience=great
Review: Despite claims to the contrary, this is not the "ultimate" Star Wars movie. There are moments of inexplicable plot twist and/or unbelievable coincidence (Anakin Skywalker made Threepio? Since when?), not to mention some moments that are entirely too silly for this noble saga. (When I saw Boss Nass do that lip-shaking thing, for example, I groaned, "This is obscene.") But I'm still giving this movie four stars, simply because it does have its moments: the unbelievable special effects, for example, that turn this from a movie into a breathtaking epic experience. Add to that the performances of Liam Neeson and Ewan McGregor (who sounds exactly like Alec Guiness, by the way), who give solid performances as true Jedi Knights--highly skilled warriors who follow a strict code and uphold their principles to the end. Their performances alone transform this movie from the rambunctiousness of previous Star Wars episodes (or later ones, I guess) into a heroic tale of camaraderie from a time when Jedi Knights were exactly that. This film feels old-school even though it's new, and that feeling along with the background info this movie provides (not to mention what is hands-down the most kickass series of lightsaber sequences EVER) make this movie worth owning.

Rating: 5 stars
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: 1 stars
Summary: Menacing Disappointment
Review: did anyone really expect this to be good? with all the hype leading up to it, it could only be a let down. while the effects were good, everything still looked extremely rendered and cartoonish. the acting was sub par, and the worst part was the kid. YIPEEEEEE! (he shouts that 3 times in the movie). jar jar binks is below mentioning. darth maul... we never learn much about him, and he's not one iota as menacing as darth vader. the saddest part to me is that there are so many devoted star wars fans out there who refuse to see this movie for what it is. they are so blinded by everything lucas and the fact that they waited days/weeks for tickets that they would feel extremely guilty or duped by calling the movie anything but amazing. in reality, it lacks the creativity and vision to put it in the same league as the original trilogy. want good sci-fi? look elsewhere.

Rating: 5 stars
