My favourite prequel

Rating: 8/10 (15 December 2019)

Star Wars The Phantom Menace. A Great movie in the Star Wars saga and this is my favourite one of the prequel trilogy. Now I'm not saying the prequels are perfect but I still enjoy them alot.
This film has alot of great moments the Lightsaber fights and the Pod race are worth it alone.
The effects are amazing and I love what this adds to the lore of Star Wars.
Seeing the Jedi in the prime is amazing to watch and seeing the beginnings of some of my favourite characters like Anakin and Obi Wan is awesome.
Qui Gon Jinn is one of the best characters introduced in Star Wars and is brilliantly played by Liam Neeson.
Darth Maul is a fantastic looking villian the design of him is amazing and a little creepy.
This film added alot of interesting lore to star wars like Anakin being known as a chosen one who will bring balance to the force.
And the idea of Midi-chlorians which help jedi connect to the force.
Now this movie isn't perfect it does have some moments I'm not a fan of. But my big issue with the prequels is there some jedi characters that get waisted in the movies like Kit Fisto and PluKoon and it's annoying because they are really interesting characters.
Seeing Anakin as a kid in awesome and knowing where he is going to end up is really interesting and I like this character alot and his journey in the Prequel Trilogy is amazing.
It's also interesting seeing the beginning of Palpatines plan he literally planned all this so Padme would vote a no confidence in Chancellor Vallorium and he could get power slowly planning his rule it's so interesting to Watch.
Verdict 8.5/10 a great movie and definitely my favourite of the Prequel Trilogy it's alot of fun and seeing the beginning of my favourite characters is awesome and the jedi in the prime.
