the one that started them all

Rating: 8/10 (27 November 2002)

Fantastic for it's day. The SFX were spectacular and the acting superb. The fact that Lucas was able to snare some big names (such as Alec Guiness, Harrison Ford (a rising star) and Carrie Fisher) attests to his salesmanship of the script. His execution of the script is flawless and the result is a triumph. Its success has led to further films in the series and I can't wait for the next one.
