An Introduction to Star Wars for a New Age

Rating: 6/10 (5 January 2020)

There's something fundamentally appealing to the wide-eyed optimism of this saga's beginnings, while not being blessed with characters or set-pieces as memorable as perhaps could have been desired or had been seen before. But in spite of its flaws, Phantom succeeds in being colourful, funny and tense enough to catch the wandering eye of an unsuspecting child passing the screen and puts out just enough intrigue and excitement as to enthrall a new generation of fans into its world of space wizards and droid armies.
