Review:
This film is an average Star Wars film. Don't get me wrong it is an exellent film. In my opinion it is better than "Episode 4", but is not as good as "Empire". I went into the cinema with no expectations of it being either good or bad. I was satisfied with the wait of 16 years to see this film and I will probably go and see it many more times over the summer. I was bothered by peoples reactions to the Character Jar Jar binks. I think that once you get over the intial irritation of his voice, you begin to love the comic relief that he gives at many times during the movie. It was also good to see some characters from the original movie.
Conclusion.
This film is the begining of the entire Star Wars saga and I think that it doesn't deserve some of the abuse it has been getting.I think that George Lucas did an Exellent job at making this movie and I am looking forward to the next movie....
