Lucas has lost it!!!

Rating: 3/10 (31 October 2001)

Lucas should ask someone else to continue the Star Wars saga. He has only proven two things with this movie he can neither write or direct.
The story is something a five year old could have come up with, and the direction??...as far as I know the actors said their silly lines and went back to their seats. What a shame, Portman,McGregor,Neeson and Pernilla August are all great actors but in this one they are more stiff than a cardboard cut out!!
Lucas has said that he will repeat certain themes from the original trilogy in the new Star Wars. Well that he has done....that is Phantom Menace is more or less a remake of A New Hope and Return of the Jedi, and a very bad one too!! I just don't understand. The Star Wars universe is so vast, why the hell does Lucas have to tell the same story over and over again???
Jake Lloyd is the worst child actor I've seen in my life. Hale Joel Osment believe it or not lost the gig after the first audition!!!!??? How the hell could that happen??
And yes Jar Jar IS the most annoying character on screen..EVER

George Lucas should give his sad universe to someone like Peter Jackson, because he has proven two things with this movie..JACK'N S***!!
