Darth Maul Rocks!

Rating: 6/10 (27 August 2003)

Many folks hate this flick for the sole reason of the mere existence of Jar Jar Binks. Yes, he is an irritating fellow but don't let him ruin an adequate start to the Star Wars saga. Adequate indeed. While filled with great fx and pretty fair story, Episode 1 stands above Episode 2 because of the fantastic villiany of Darth Maul. The devil faced sith lord is all the more reason to sit through this scifi flick. Actually, he is the only reason!
Bottom Line: 6/10! -- A good workout for the home theater!
