It's easy to say. It's more difficult to explane: The best movie ever made

Rating: Null/10 (23 February 2000)

STAR WARS and THE GODFATHER is the god of movies.

This movie didn't really turn me into a super duper star wars fan. But I sure must admit that ''Star Wars'', ''The Empire Strikes Back'', and ''Return Of The Jedi'' ( or in another way the ''Star Wars Trilogy'' ) is by far the greatest movie(s) ever created. George Lucas rocks! The actors where good, the effects was ( in the 70:s ) incredible, and the directing very good. It's an adventure beyond everything else. And the other 2 movies were at least as perfect.
In the ''first'' Star Wars-movie princess Leia is captured by the evil Space Empire, lead by the even more evil Darth Vader, from their gigantic space station, The Death Star. The rescuers are Luke Skywalker, Obi Wan Kenobi, Han Solo, C-3PO, R2-D2 and Chewie, but let's not bore you. We all know that.

The best thing about this movie is that it combines so many kinds of genres. Star Wars is filled with action, adventure and absolutly fantastic space scenes. But in the same time the movie is human, sad and the romance is not as flat as in all the 80's action movies. The movie is also a saga. The farmerboy finds the eremite, they take help from the raw cowboy and his sidekicks, and the mission is to rescue a princess. That message was strongest in Episode IV.
It is a classic battle between good and evil. And not in a Evil Dead-way nor in a Exorcist-way. It is the Star Wars-way. The best example of the longtime battle.
Once again, I can't say that I'm a Star Wars-freak, but this is the greatest movie.
