"Hard to see, the dark side is." Yoda

Rating: 6/10 (7 August 1999)

Plot: Queen in distress? Two Jedi Knights embark on a journey to rescue the planet from the evil trade federation.
Review: "Computer Wins, George Lucas TRY AGAIN" says it all. Lack of wit and imagination, weak plot and dialogue, and not enough character development, yet all concealed by the stunning visual effects. The magnificent sets and costumes as well as the John Williams musical score ( Saving Private Ryan, Jaws... ) add the mythical touch, the needed "force" to the first of the star wars trilogy. As Yoda would have put it " A masterpiece, this is not. Entertainment, it is."
