Starts the Final Road to Finishing George Lucas' six movie saga.

Rating: 10/10 (12 October 2008)

First off, let me put this up front right away. I am a MAJOR Star Wars fan. I read everything expanded universe (stuff outside the movies such as books, comics, etc.) and could write you humongous essays on Star Wars lore. One thing that people who are uneducated on Star Wars lore fell to realize is that THIS. IS. NOT. A. REMAKE. IT'S CALLED EPISODE ONE FOR A REASON. IT'S THE BEGINNING OF THE TALE OF STAR WARS. THAT'S WHY DARTH VADER IS A LITTLE BOY CALLED ANAKIN. HE'S NOT DARTH YET. THAT'S WHY THERE ARE TWO MORE FILMS FEATURING ANAKIN GROWING UP AND BECOMING DARTH VADER! Now that I've yelled that, I'm going to quote Carlos Mencia. All the people who say that it's not as good as the original, that's because you were kids when the original came out. NOTHING will be as good as it was then. So just shut UP! Yes, the film was targeted at children. Now, to address Jar Jar. I liked him. He showed an advancment in CG. This is what George Lucas does. He is a brilliant film-maker (excluding Howard the Duck) and his forte is film-making advancement. He practically LIVES to advance technology. If not for Jar-Jar, people might not have a lot of advancements in cinematography that they take for granted. Now for my actual review...the film starts off at the beginning of Anakins Skywalker's tale...A.K.A. Darth Vader. But he's not Darth Vader yet. He is a small boy, approximately nine years of age, who starts off on his journey to being a Jedi in this film. Episodes II and III continue this epic, finishing with Anakin finally becoming Vader, which opens up for Episodes IV, V, and VI. Most people will hate this rant I have went on, but oh well. I personally applaud Mr. Lucas for making this film. He has a voice, and he had a dream, and he had a story, and he was going to tell it one way or the other.
