Good movie,but just can't quite live up to the originals.

Rating: 9/10 (15 May 2006)

The Star Wars franchise is back with this prequel to the old films from the 70s and 80s.This movie overall is good.The acting is the best out of the new trilogy.Liam Neeson is the best,but the others are great as well(minus Jake Lloyd).Also for a movie in the 90s the special effects are amazing!George Lucas has written a great script and has sat back in the director's chair and did a great job.John Williams has returned and has written another amazing score,all of the great themes are back including spectacular new ones like Duel of Fates.
The action is awesome(mainly because of Darth Maul),the lightsaber duels are lightyears ahead of the ones in the originals.The only real notable problems are Jake Lloyd's bad acting,occasional cheesy moments and special effects,and sometimes weak dialogue.Overall it is a great film and is real fun and really is going to create a whole new generation of Star Wars fans.
A great: 9/10!!!!
