Legendary...

Rating: 10/10 (20 February 2010)

When I was three years old, my father took me to see this film in the theater and the result was as expected: I was mesmerized by it. Now, thirty-three years later, Star Wars has the same effect on kids as it did in 1977, and not at all to my surprise. This is a true example of a timeless film. Everything about it, the characters, the special effects, the cinematography - everything about it is spot-on. The world George Lucas has created with Star Wars has become engraved into modern pop culture in such a way that no other film ever has, and in the process, reaffirmed the fact that Lucas is truly a legendary filmmaker - a master of his medium.
