Star Wars, ostensibly about Hats, really about Germans

Rating: Null/10 (4 July 2004)

i once heard a friend of mine describe this as "libellous Nazi filth". i am now coming round to his point of view. the final presentation at the end (of the medals) is a little more than reminiscent of the Nuremburg rallies, note the visual assonance of the lighting with the nazi banners at the rally. The nazi aircraft project "X-wing" to do with research with nuclear fuelling, does X-wing ring a bell with anyone... i thought it might. Overall, decent film, fights somewhat lackluster... not sure what all the fuss was about really, its certainly no Sam Raimi project... let alone a brand worthy of the Star Trek enterprise. p.s the recent ones as one step beyond this "tosh" to quote Gary McGibbleson, noted film reviewer of our time (the nineties).
