Great film, great story

Rating: 9/10 (12 August 2003)

Lucas takes us back to the era of Buck Rogers and the Sunday morning sequels with a romp through space. A beautiful Princess must be rescued by a smalltown young prince from a dark knight. On the way he meets a wise old man who guides him to his destiny, aided by his trusty robot squires. Groundbreaking special effects, good plot and some good performances are somehow gelled into a film that became a religion. Marvelous!
