Honestly, pretty crappy

Rating: Null/10 (10 September 2002)

When you think of it, this movie isn't that great - in fact, the whole series sucks. It seems that Lucas relies only on the special effects to pull a story across, as is evident in Episode II. The script is horendous, the acting was pretty okay (I wish Skywalker showed some more emotion), and their are so many plotholes. For example, if hyperspace is light-speed, as they say, how can they cross the galaxy? Is it that small?
The music was amazing ON ITS OWN, but when attached to the movie (with the only exeption the beginning and end credits) it sounds to corny. Maybe Williams could have mellowed it down? He made the same mistake for Harry Potter.
The plot is straight forward, and I give it a good mark for that. But it could have had more depth in the characters - Han Solo and Luke Skywalker seemed too 2-d.
Please don't hurt me, you die hard Star Wars fans. Am I allowed to state my opinion? I thought this series was very crappy, that's all
