Uh, can Lucas redo this one?

Rating: Null/10 (14 January 2002)

I remember how much I could not wait to see this movie. Star Wars was always my favorite movie as a kid. Suddenly, I was in the theater, the lights dimmed, and the movie began. And just as the first lines were spoken, my heart sank. The dialogue was THAT awful.
The movie seemed uninspired; un-Star Wars. Once you got past the lines, you then noticed the movie was too choppy and didn't flow together. This picture really came off as a cheap kids movie, and even the kids thought it wasn't all that good.
Unfortunately, this movie nearly killed the franchise's popularity. So whats next? Well as an avid (and now closet) Star Wars fan, I have checked up on the next installment, "Attack of the Clones." All I can say - without spoiling the movie - is don't get your hopes up. Episode 2 may be simpler, but it still shares the weaknesses of its unpopular predecessor.
