star wars a triumph.

Rating: 9/10 (19 May 2002)

without doubt george lucas has exorcised the debarcle that was the phantom menace. out goes annoying, irritating young children and in comes in comes characters that are mean , moody and intense . george lucas has delivered the star wars movie that fans have been crying out for , this is the kind of movie the summer blockbuster was meant to be . the story is is a complex tapestry of political intrique and subdefuge , whilst still remaing simple enough for the younger ones to enjoy . the action set pieces are breathtaking , ilm have pushed the special effects barrier to a different level . the acting at times is a little stilted , but this is only due to george lucas's poor dialogue, he'y you cant be good at everything . all actors do the best they can with the material they have but christopher lee stands head and shoulders above the rest, an old hand showing the youngsters how its done . but the real star of this movie is yoda , without giving the plot away his final scences have to be seen to be beleived . so which movi e is the best ? clones or spiderman ? . well after seeing both it has to be star wars , but only just .
