From film creator to film crater

Rating: 2/10 (2 November 2005)

I have just watched this movie on DVD with the family and the verdict is unanimous...this film is utter garbage! My kids stopped watching after about 45 minutes and found something else to do while we adults (unfortunately) continued watching hoping for an improvement that never came. I don't know where to start- there are too many starting points available...Suffice to say that there are many wheel-done reviews here already summarizing the flagrant weaknesses of this film. The night before I watched a TV doc on the making of the original Star Wars episodes where we see Lucas struggle to bring his films and vision to the screen. At the end of the documentary Lucas, after having achieved fame and fortune, says that he has now ironically become the studio establishment boss that he initially set out to circumvent. Truer words were never spoken! Welcome to Hollywood!!
