A kids movie

Rating: 1/10 (15 May 2000)

I had heard this was a poor effort before I saw it. A few minutes into the film I realised it was a lot worse than I had been expecting. If Lucas wanted this to be a film for children under 12 then he succeeded. If this is meant to appeal to those of us who remember seeing the first 3 in the cinema all those years ago then I can't fathom his reasoning.
The FX are good and that's about all. Those of us who hate Independence Day know that flashy effects can't disguise what is essentially rubbish.
