Summary: A Masterpiece Now and For All Time
Review: "May the Force Be With You Always"Obi-One KenobiGeorge Lucas's unforgettable Star Wars is one of the most influential, mythically engaging, and highly enjoyable science fiction films of all time. Though it can be said that Lucas borrowed cinematic ideas from Akira Kurosaka (Hidden Fortress), Howard Hawks, and John Ford (The Searchers). Does Star Wars really deserve to be called too simplistic or underserving of all it's popularity? NO NO NO! , Star Wars is modern film myth that has engaged its fans in its timeless tale for the last 23 years. What the Star Wars Haters need to realize is that we the fans find this wonderful myth of good, evil, fate, and destiny to be one of the most enlightening and blissful voyages that the movies have ever given us. Star Wars is a tribute to the power and expressiveness of the movies. What make Star Wars so superior to the numerous clones that followed it is despite its magnificent special effects, that defined a new age in Sci/Fi, the film's characters, mythos, and epic story are what made Star Wars so universally accepted and beloved around the world. Not only have the characters of Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Han Solo, and R2D2 become permanent parts of movie culture. The simple yet important moral that good will eventually overcome all evil no matter the time, suffering, loss, or failure involved makes Star Wars the modern equivalent of the Wizard of Oz. It tells it's tale simply and elequently. It moves us with its images and people. It takes us to a time and place that will never leave the boundries of our memory. Star Wars is joy to behold, and anyone who feels otherwise is too stuck up to see the beauty of a universe a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. Star Wars Fans: May the Force Always Be With Each and Every One of You. I can't wait to see all the episodes on DVD.

Summary: THE END OF A MYTH
Review: The Stars Wars trilogy is one of the most overrated movies. When Stars Wars was released in the seventies it was of course very specatcular, there was not another movie like this one. Then, the saga of Stars Wars continued with 2 other movies : the Empire strike back (the best of the trilogy, not directed by Lucas), and the poorest Return of the Jedi. In fact, when Georges Lucas began to work on Stars Wars project, he wanted a spectacular science-fiction movie inspired by the world of Flash Gordon. But soon, it appeared to him that specials effects available in the seventies could not suit to his visual extravaganza. So, he contented with a movie more realistic, very far from his original kitsch view. It is years after his first Stars Wars, that he finally could express himself in the bad Phantom Menace, a movie like he said for kids under age of 8. The marketing strategy of Lucas helped to create a fake phenomenon of society, based on the illusion of an original concept of science-fiction. In fact, most of the ideas of Stars Wars are ideas of Frank Herbert with his Dune Saga. A lot of people who saw Stars Wars in the seventies and considered it as masterpiece, consider now that the movie was hollow, particulary when they have seen the pitiful Phantom Menace. Stars Wars can not be considered as a science-fiction masterpiece, it is a good movie but nothing more.

Summary: The BEST Star Wars flick out there!
Review: This is, by far, THE BEST of all 4 Star Wars movies yet! This movie was made to stand on it's own, sequels to it or not! It has all of the major themes of a major epic. Darth Vader is the greatest! I have watched this movie over and over and over...the special effects might look tame to today's standards, but the lack of "computer effects" gives it more a sence of realism. I LOVE THIS MOVIE!

Summary: star wars is life
Review: what can i say about the geatest movie of all time. george lucas is a genius and star wars is one of his best accomplishments. you never can get tired of the action, adventure, and thrill of the first star wars movie. who can forget the wit and arrogance of our dear captain solo? or the chill darth vader sends running down our spines? these characters are relics of their time and they should never be forgotten. i HIGHLY reccomend that you purchase this timeless movie to share with generations of old and new. i know i'm a die hard star wars fan, and deep down, i think we all are. may the force be with you...... always.

Summary: Nice special effects
Review: When I was younger, I loved this movie. The special effects were good for 1977. The movie won 6 oscars, and lost Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Origional Screenplay to Annie Hall. Nice to watch.

Summary: May the force be with all who haven't seen it!
Review: George Lucas is a god! The god of film-making! This classic science fiction trilogy is a timeless masterpiece that may bring girls into sci-fi. I haven't seen it nearly enough times! I have kept count and it's 1,000 times. To me that is not enough. The experience is overwhelming, the lightsabre battles, the space wars, the loveable characters, the wickedness of the dark side. To me it has numerous genres! Action / Adventure / Comedy / Drama / Fantasy / Horror / Romance / Science fiction Sir Lucas is my idol! It was an honour to simply view Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace, which was also a classic. I would love to own all of them in different sets, only then my life would be complete. A true classic for all time!
