Don't underestimate the Force.

Rating: 9/10 (4 March 2012)

For someone raised on westerns, as I was, this is a throwback to those childhood days. There is no difference in Watching Randolph Scott or the Lone Ranger and watching Luke Skywalker. It is all about truth, justice and the American way - hey, that's not a western quote, but it is appropriate.
It is not necessary to recap the story as it is familiar to all but the 20 or so people who have not seen the film. It is a big adventure with great and memorable actors: Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, James Earl Jones, Peter Cushing, and Sir Alec Guinness.
The Blu-ray disc is magnificent, and the only true way to watch this at home. The picture is brilliant and the sound of John Williams music is beyond exquisite. If only I had surround sound.
