The Phantom Menace Stinks!

Rating: 1/10 (13 March 2002)

I can't believe how complete awful The Phantom Menace was! This film had no plot, originality, or storyline. The film had the most BORING characters with the exception of Jar Jar Binks who is quite possibly the most annoying, childish, and irritating character ever to be shown on a big screen.
The Matrix deservedly won four Oscars over the awards that The Phantom Menace was nominated for making TPM the first Star Wars film to NOT win a single academy award. Also, the numerous Razzie (Worst of the year) awards just goes to show how awful this film was.
The Phantom Menace feels NOTHING like the classic Star Wars trilogy. Let's hope that Episodes II (Attack of the Clones) and III (Fall of the Republic?) are a 1000 times better than the complete travesty that is The Phantom Menace! One on a scale of 1-10 and that's because I'm a HUGE Star Wars fan, just not a TPM fan!
