My Favorite Movie of all time!!!

Rating: Null/10 (29 May 2003)

This movie created a literal monster in my house. My parents will tell you to this day, nearly 30 years after the films release, that their biggest mistake in raising me was to take a 3 yr old to see this movie. It is also the only time my parents can ever remember that I was absolutely quiet and awake for over 2 consecutive hours. The genius of George Lucas is obvious from the beginning of the film. No other movie in history has ever spawned the creativeness of so many people. All other movies made after Star Wars have that movie to thank for the effects made possible through that movie. The characters are easily distinguished, have room for a lot of growth, and it is and absolutely perfect way to introduce kids to mythology, and the compexities of storytelling. George borrowed from Kirosawa, The Wizard of Oz, The Lone Ranger, King Arthur, Flash Gordon, and many other sources to bring this movie to life. He did an exemplary job. He inspired a new generation of Sience buffs, movie buffs, and best of all he created a film the ENTIRE family could comfortably see together. Keep it up George!!
