Summary: Disapointment
Review: This movie was [poor], big disapointment from the other 4. The DVD seems to be good though, I don't know, haven't seen on dvd! I don't plan too, because this movie blowed!! Looked like your in a game, and Mr. Lucas even admitted himself that this movie was made for the children!! Too bad, I think it was Jar Jar who ruined this movie, for the most part, it's too bad!! Hopefully the 3rd will be more like the 2nd one than the 1st, cause this one wasn't good at all! Especially all those dumb looking aircrafts, looked like they were made of really cheap wood or metal. Dumb movie, the rest of STar Wars is great so, skip this one and watch the rest!!!

Summary: Stinker.
Review: This movie will never be good while the title Star Wars is attached to it. The characters were boring; Qui-Gon Jinn died before we could get to know him, Obi-Wan was bland and expressionless and Darth Maul? Come on, horns? Yeah, right. Plus, we get the stupendous Queen Amidala was just about as exciting as a stuffed frog. The only exciting person in the whole wretched flick was Anakin, but we know his fate so it's not too exciting. And where the heck was Han Solo's father? That would have been sweet.
As for plot, it wasn't intriguing because they introduce you to the problem, think it out and solve it all in the same movie. The only thing that saves this movie from the dump is that it has decent special effects and it is part of the Star Wars saga. Just watch Episode 2, it's alot better. @lex

Summary: Okay Movie, Bas Excuse for a Star Wars Film
Review: This movie would have been a decent movie had it not been set in the Star Wars Universe, but it was and compared to the other films it had a rather weak story line and horrible characters. All the characters look really cool, such as the Battle Droids, but without an interesting story they're nothing but wasted. DVD extras "You're my only hope" for saving this film.

Summary: Everyone complains
Review: This movie, though comical at some times, is another Star Wars triumph. The fact that it is part of the Star Wars saga gives it that right. Everyone complains..Jar Jar had a huge role in this movie. The Ewoks were the same. I thought the movie was powerful. It's Star Wars and I bow in front of it. The movies have changed my life..

Summary: Captures today's America
Review: This movie, which was killed by fanatical hype, was actually not as horrible as it was made out to be. The Phantom Menace quite accurately captured the present situation in today's America, with unseen powerful forces coniving to gobble up power. However, I must disgree with a previous review which stated Darth Sidious was Bill Clinton. Lucas apparently sees the bad guys as those on the other side of the fence: "Nute Gunray" = Nute Gingrich & Ronald Reagan; "Lott Dodd" = Trent Lott; and of course, Darth Sidious is... well I'll leave that up to the imagination, though everyone knows that Luke Skywalker is Sen. John McCain, "fighting his way out of the Death Star." But seriously, the movie is okay, and could only have been better with less computer animation and fewer known actors. Only seeing Episode II will prove whether or not the set-up was worth it, but I suspect that it was.

Summary: Not great, not bad either
Review: This movies expectations were WAY too high for starters. It wasn't ever going to be able to live up to the originals. I will agree that parts of the film were bad. The characters weren't very simpathetic, I saw no kids crying when Qui-gon died. They also spoiled alot of potential for the characters. Darth Maul and Qui-Gon would have been very interesting characters if we had recieved a little back story. If you ask anyone who their favorite character was, they say Darth Maul because he looks cool. Because he looks cool? Wow, they were really into what was happening emotionally with the character. Oh, yeah, Lucas didn't let us know about that. As for the storyline, it sounds like he wrote it over a weekend while he had a hangover. The dialogue was surprisingly horrible. The only intelligent speech actually came from the ultra annoying Jar-Jar Binks. He isn't funny!! Don't bring him back in Episode two!! I have all ready begun loosing faith in Episode two due to the title. "Attack of the Clones" ? Someone is puffing the peace pipe too much. What is wrong with "The Clone Wars"? I will probably buy the DVD because, well, it's Star Wars. Also maybe the extra scenes will add a bit more depth to the characters(all though I strongly doubt it)

Summary: Not good enough.
Review: This new star wars episode, while showing great photography, special effects, and innovative cinematic techniques, misses what the original series had - a good story, mystery, and as others put it, a sense of humor and that 'spark'. Although it is worth seeing (although I don't know, it somehow can ruin one's impression of the originals), it definitely doesn't seem destined to be the classics of its predecessors.

Summary: Phantom menace
Review: This new STAR WARS film is better than ATTACK OF THE CLONES,though lots of movie goers hated this film.but there all wrong because this is a masterpiece of STAR WARS series.George Lucas puts some exciting scenes in this one like the scene with the race and has evil Darth Maul.only reason this deserves 4 stars is because retarded Jar-Jar Binks ruined it,other than that a entertaining film.

Summary: The ***** rating is for the *DVD*, not necessarily the film:
Review: This one is worth buying for any fan of the Star Wars franchise. That said, as a film, George has left much to be desired (and some to be rebuffed, eg. Jar Jar). Science Fiction fans unfamiliar with Star Wars (as if they existed) would still like this one, but the general viewing public would probably be disappointed in the relative weakness present, especially versus the other films from George Lucas. However, and this is a *big* however: this review is for the DVD, which transfer is among the most amazing ever. Sound is impeccable, video fantastic, and the extra features, including bonus footage originally cut but finished specifically for this DVD, are to die for. Its quite an unreal package for DVD genre enthusiasts, though no Nuon features (unless perhaps in easter-egg format). Enjoy another film from Uncle George, even if it is just good and not great, that will look great and sound better.
