Childish, but good

Rating: 8/10 (17 June 1999)

Episode I is entertaining, but there are some problems. Some things (the pod race and the Jedi duel) were better than any similar scenes in the rest of the series. The main problem is that there is a child character (with annoying dialogue) as well as cartoonish character (with even more annoying dialogue) aimed at children. This makes the movie come off as a kids movie. At least it didn't have a dog in it.
