Hard to see, the dark side is.
By JediSi (301 reviews) from Kent , 07 Sep 2007[Highly rated reviewer]
The original trilogy introduced special effects never done before on screen; but twenty years later, ILM (Industrial Light & Magic) improved what George Lucas wanted on his masterpiece trilogy. In 1999, now with technology being more advanced, Lucas, has made a film not only of epic storytelling but of visual effects as well.
The film starts out with a Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and a young Obi-Wan Kenobi who disguise themselves as ambassadors for Queen Amidala, which doesn't go well as planned. A droid reveals their identities leaving the Jedi's no choice but to attack. They find out that there's an imminent invasion with the Gungan's, and Jar Jar Binks becomes an aide.
Jar Jar, I'll admit is one of the most annoying characters but thankfully doesn’t appear in any of the other SW films.
The Phantom Menace is a very good start to the prequels but when compared with the rest of the saga, it’s probably the weakest. A fun film nonetheless where there are great fight scenes along the way.- Was this review helpful to you?

new movie added to my top 5 films
By a customer , 05 Oct 2011Ok i have to admit i haven't seen the original 3 movies yet(i have but many years ago) as love film is sending them to us in order but i have to stress how much i love this film. after watching star wars 1, 2 and 3 i really enjoyed them so much that i m going to buy the new start wars special edition boxset. for those of you who love the original 3 films and think these are rubbish i get it i feel the same way when they replaced Dumbledore in harry potter its not the same but there still good films.
my advice is for anyone who has not watched the original films you will love it. the graphics are awesome and the story its self is really good.
bring on 4 5 and 6 please love film =)

The Bore Wars
By ZiggyTheKid (86 reviews) from Dundee , 03 Sep 2010A dull start to the new series of Star Wars films; while the film is good to look at it is plagued by lacklustre performances, actors who look like they would rather be other places, the film also suffers from bad dialogue spun by lazy scriptwriters, it also has that rushed feel about it; being brought out before it had been thought through, a poor answer to the questions that were asked back in A New Hope.- Was this review helpful to you?
