The real Star Wars is back!

Rating: 8/10 (17 May 2002)

Forget The Phantom Menace, this is truly out of the original Star Wars stable. All the usual stunning effects including a decent story line and oh did I see some romance in there.
Special effects wise the chase near the beginning serves well to keep you on the edge of your seat while showing off some neat effects. For me the battle scene towards the end was rather 'busy' and went on a little too long I felt.
As per usual George Lucas's attention to detail is exemplary especially the planets seen from space, which are breath taking on the big screen.
Clever too is way the film references future episodes or should I past.
Ok you guessed it I liked it.
