Star Wars episode I - The Phantom Menace

Rating: 10/10 (8 November 2009)

Without spoiling too much.
Arguably THE best Star wars (and sci-fi) movie ever made.
Set before the others, and confusingly made AFTER the IV , V and VI , but as i say before II and III, this contains everything.
Love, guns, light sabers, terrifying aliens and spaceships. This has better special Fx than IV, V and VI and definitely contains the best characters. Ewan McGregor steals the show though with his blazing performance as Obi Wan, as he fights off the empire.
This time though the Empire are using robots! OMFG! You get to see the early stages of Darth Vaders childhood as Darth Maul, before he got his space suit. There's even a race through a desert and everything. This is set somewhere in space, so despite some scenes being slightly unbelievable (practically every scene with Natalie Portman) it's definitely a film you'll be talking about for years.
Sadly the franchise slips downhill after number III, and you can't help wondering if Ridley Scott made the others just for the money.
But who's to complain with a gem like this? 10/10 Shits all over Star Trek.
