Still the best!

Rating: 10/10 (13 September 2014)

All these years after it was first released, Star Wars Episode IV is still the best episode, IMHO.
Absolutely brilliant. This movie changed the world of movies, starting with sci-fi.
George Lucas' mega multi movie masterpiece all started with this film.
If you have not seen it ... you really should.
Seriously, how different would our lives all be without the incredible inventions and characters that came out of the Star Wars saga?
These days, you hear "epic" to describe just about any big budget blockbuster movie to be dripped out of Hollywood.
Which is why it's all the more amazing that this, the first SW movie to make it to the big screen, did so with a very limited budget compared to today's films. There were lines around the lines around the block.
Its impact was so massive, it truly deserves the title of EPIC.
And you really, really should not watch this movie if you don't like exciting film.
On the other hand, if you love the colorful creativity of the mind of George Lucas, and yet somehow you have been deprived of witnessing this early career chef d'oeuvres by Mr. Lucas, then do yourself a favor: Get the movie and press "Play".
Of course, it helps if you have some friends to watch it with. Be sure they're the kind of friends who won't spoil it for you, plus a big tub of popcorn and sodas on hand.
And when you come back here to give me your thanks ... don't. Give them to Mr. Lucas and his excellent troupe and crew that made this cinematic dream-scape come true to life ... back in the age of Disco, no less! (At least something awesome came out of the 1970s!)
