A cultural landmark

Rating: 10/10 (27 September 2016)

Whenever I think of a movie one of the first things that pops into my head is he year they were made. Yet with Star Wars I struggle to pinpoint it to a single year, to me that just speaks of the power Star Wars has as its not only timeless but is so ingrained in pop culture and everyday life that it's hard for me to imagine a world without this franchise. And it all started with this one film. Like everyone else I love this movie as its effortlessly re watchable, tons of fun, has engaging characters, a simple yet compelling story and ground breaking special effects. There is never a dull moment to be found as the pacing is pitch perfect. The characters have left a lasting impression on society despite characters like Chewbacca and R2-D2 not even saying a single word, that just emphasizes how wonderful this film is. I would say go see it, but let's face it, you already have.
