Star Wars is like Lite Beer.

Rating: Null/10 (10 May 2000)

Tastes great AND less filling!
I've loved Star Wars since my youth (who didn't) and even to this day I can't find a movie that is near as fun to watch. However, Star Wars lacks substance. It has love, honor, Zen philosophy and even comments on the human condition, but they are all the "lite" versions, toned down for easy consumption.
Many people have leveled claims that Lucas slipped up on his "Episode I", but the original Star Wars wasn't really much different. They're both a lot of fun, both suffer from lack of good acting (with a few exceptions), and both are made for your kid brother to understand.
Star Wars is a great flick, and I recommend it highly, but it doesn't hold a candle to other action movies with substance like The Maltese Falcon, The Seven Samurai, or even Blade Runner.
