A perfect fit in the Star Wars saga.

Rating: 10/10 (16 May 2002)

From the moment "Star Wars" explodes on the screen to the moment George Lucas's name appears in the end credits, this movie owns you. This is where the real story begins. Episode I was merely the eye of the storm leading up to this.
The story is brilliantly dense; the aspects of love, power, hate, betrayal and beauty are all here in the signature star wars form. The action scenes are intense but not over the top (No one will ever question Yoda's Jedi merit after seeing this movie.) The special effects? Well, it's not eye candy.. it's more along the lines of eye drugs, the movie screen is visually rich at all times.
Star Wars is truly alive and well. After 25 years of existence, it still manages to awe and inspire.
