Summary: Watchable
Review: This movie is okay, but it could have been much better. I enjoyed the original trilogy and had expected far more than this. The first disappointing thing that comes to mind is the acting. Most of it was very good, but every time I think of the movie, the first thing that comes is, "He did it. The little guy did it." (And those of you who seen the movie know what I am talking about.) There was hardly any emotion. You might have thought a dog jumped through a firey hoop at the circus. By the way the pilot was reacting as their ship was going down, the viewer hardly seemed to care if R2-D2 was able to fix the stupid thing. As a matter of fact, I almost did not want him to. That would be one less terrible actor in the movie. The second thing that comes to mind is the two-headed pod-racing commentator that looked like two different races of creatures stuck together. That was extremely annoying. But if you like special effects, this movie has awesome special effects and a very good ending.

One thing that made Star Wars very popular was Darth Vader...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Star Wars: Episode 1 (a real review)
Review: This movie is one of the best. Although this is one of the best movies of all time, the original "Star Wars" movies are the best. As far as sticking to the facts and the future events in episodes IV, V, and VI, the screenwriters have done a pretty god job of keeping on the subject. If you have not seen this movie, I highly recommend it. It has all the great elements found in an extremely good movie. Adventure, tragedy, comedy, romance, drama, great acting, etc. This is also a great stay-at-home family movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A MUST HAVE MOVIE!
Review: This movie is one of those that you must own. There are more questions to be answered that may be answered in the next installment(s) of Starwars movies. Such as "What happens to the Jedis'?". This may be answered in one of the next two movies.I could go on for over my limit for this review but I will not do that.This is a great movie and one you should own.

Summary: Jamacians in outer space?
Review: This movie is possible the worst I have ever seen ,that tried to come off as serious anyway.First of all the charecters were not the slightest bit interesting.Not to mention that the story had way to many gaps and holes big enough to fly the death star through. Since when is the indicator of having the force how many paracites you have in your blood?!?You get lice and the force is with you?I thought you had the force because you were in tune with the universe right???Evidently not. Jar Jar Binks was the stupidest part of the whole film. Reminds me of some whacked out,ganja smoking jamacian. Not to mention that they win a war with basically sticks and stones. This movie is a major sellout of the times, good old left wing america thinking that no one possible could be any smarter,stronger, or more important then another. In so many words It Sucked....

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not the best, but still packs a good punch!
Review: This movie is pretty decent but, it seems as if the movie is more reared to kids. Unlike the original 3 "Star Wars" flicks, this one has characters like Jar Jar Binks, which to me is a 3rd wheel to the rest of the story. Just as Jet Jaguar is to "Godzilla vs. Megalon" (1973) or Robin to the Batman series. It does have great special effects scenes through out the entire movie with starships and podracers galore! Queen Amidala plays an interesting character in the republic's struggles. Adding the unmade C-3PO in the movie was a good idea to mix in more characters from the classic series into the new film. Darth Maul is quite frankly one of the coolest bad guys on the movie screens ( beating out King Ghidorah on my list ). Anikan is a good character, but plays it again too much reared to real little kids and kind of hard for older people to relate to. All the robots in the film are cool but it poses some questions to me. Why do they have more advanced vehicals and droids in this movie than are in the 1977 "Star Wars"? They have battle droid robots to get fried instead of the real human Stormtroopers, obviously they were smarter in the past. George Lucas should have tooken that into consideration as he was making this film. Over every thing else, this film is still a very good addition to the "Star Wars" series and every one should own it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Action and Fun
Review: This movie is really wonderful. It is filled with adventure and fun. So where exactly is the problem? I think the reason people were disappointed is that they expected too much. I went in to see a fun movie and that is exactly what I got - this isn't cinematic genius folks, but does it have to be?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excelenta!
Review: This movie is realy amzing for not only Star Wars fans but just people who like good movies to! I am not a huge fan of Star Wars but I loved this. This film is filled with tons of action and high speed computer graphics like in the podrace. Everyone that I know that has seen it loves and nobody as ever said it was bad to me. So take my word for it this movie is so amazing you could buy the movie and watch it over and over and over and would never get tired of it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best film since R.O.T.J.
Review: This movie is simply the best movie since "Jedi"it was a great sequel and well worth the wait,I saw it 7 times and loved it every time,it had great special effects and the story was just as good (not as good as Episode IV,but hey,no film ever could be)but it was good nevertheless.And to all those people who thought Jar Jar was a racial stereotype, you had serious racial problems when you went to see it and you should get help,NOW!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: The worst film ever made?
Review: This movie is so laughingly bad, it left me speechless. The writing is amateurish, the dialogue gibberish, the sets looked like they were from a Roger Corman film, the plot horrible. My God, what happened? This looks like George Lucas 12 year nephew made it. It's AWFUL.
