My Favorite Movie of All Time

Rating: 10/10 (15 June 2013)

Star Wars represents everything that is great about filmmaking. George Lucas did not have resources, luck, or the technology that he needed to properly make this film, but he did anyway. Star Wars jump-started special effects and is responsible for the great work we have today in movies, some of which do it well, others not so much. Nevertheless, it is all incredible. Star Wars was one of the first great movies that both adults and kids could watch and enjoy. This film was a worldwide sensation, despite only premiering in a number of theaters in the beginning. Star Wars is the story of the ultimate underdog, both before and behind the camera.
