Very good entertainment

Rating: Null/10 (19 May 2002)

I thought that the criticism against this movie is unfair. The love story was correctly portrayed as the chemistry that is created between a boy growing to man and an older woman. He is full of enthusiasm, she is sceptical and pragmatic. The dialogue was not stupid, and definitely not boring. There were many interesting and memorable quotes, such as, that Jedi are trained to feel unconditional love. The Phantom Menace, which I do nor consider a bad movie, had many interesting lines too.
As for the whole look of the movie. Well, it is Star Wars. It does not try to be better than the other movies overall, not worse. These movies represent the saga we all grew up with so going to the theater for the new installment is like paying homage to our childhood.
