True to the Galaxy, Not to Our Perspective

Rating: 10/10 (20 May 2002)

In Episode I we caught a glimpse of the world that Lucas had envisioned when he created this dream universe. However seeing this world the way he wanted brought to many a feeling of unrest and even sadness, maybe a longing for the times when movies had that raw dirty feel to them. It was released and even though the acting wasn't horrendus, the movie was not accepted. But, Lucas being the genius that he is, was merely introducing you to the galaxy with Episode I. In Episode II he reaches his stride and proves that he is not the same horrible Director we saw in Episode I, no he is in fact the creator of yet another phenomenol chapter in this never-ending galaxy of adventure. Episode II fulfills all expectations and then some, it mixes that clean sence of humor remeniscent of the original trilogy with a wonderful drama. The movie is well scripted and the young cast carries the movie exceptionally well. All in all this movie fits nicely into the series and with the Special Edition releases Lucas created in the late 90's there is virtually no continuety errors. So sit back, order a pizza, and enjoy this movie with your family . . . as soon as it hits video stores.
