May the force be with you!

Rating: 10/10 (20 February 2010)

When George Lucas was writing Star Wars he certainly had the force with him, a truly inspiring force that led to the greatest masterpiece of all times. For many this movie may be thought as another good vs evil sci fi movie, however this is not the case, Star Wars changed the course of film history,it gave a whole different meaning to the word sci-fi, enchanting visuals, great costumes, great plot and great acting. The actors were like they were born to play these roles, Marc Hamill as Luke Skywalker, the heroic kid that has never met his parents, loses his aunt and uncle yet with the help of Obi-Wan, played amazingly by Alec Guiness, he starts his journey to fight against the dark side, together with his friends, Harisson Ford who perfectly fits into the shoes of the arrogant captain Han Solo and Carrie Fisher who plays the beautiful and decisive princess Lea. I am 18 and it's really ashame because i listen to my friends etc talking about star wars and considering it a piece of crap, it's really ashame because those as many other people judge because of the new trilogy, however the original sw trilogy deserves everyones respect because we are talking about an epic, people say that the story is nothing new and they have seen a similar one many times, however think just think of how original this movie was back in 1977, it was a turning point in history. I believe that all true movie lovers should watch the original trilogy before daring to judge this cinematic colossus that has lived its mark in the history of movies. We all owe respect and appreciation to Lucas and all the people that helped for this movie to be made and for young people like myself and millions of others to be talking for it even three decades later.
