It Sucked...

Rating: 10/10 (26 May 1999)

that it wasn't longer. Lucas crammed so many images, motifs, myths and allegories into 2 hours and 15 minutes that anyone who has written a review after only one viewing might as well have not seen the movie at all, and you can summarily dismiss everything they have to say.
If you study movies at all, it is irresponsible on your part to give this film a lukewarm (or bad) review after one viewing. It's like seeing Citizen Kane only one time and saying "eeehhh, it was O.K." and then dismissing it. The sign of a good/great movie is one where even after repeated viewings, you get something new out of it each time. Very few movies are this good. Go see it again.
