Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace

Pros: It's STAR WARS, man!

Cons: Geared more toward kids, instead of us grown-up fans

Review: Despite Jar-Jar and the kid from "Jingle All The Way" (yeah, he couldn't act in that one, either), "The Phantom Menace" is a pretty decent movie. In no way does it compare to "The Empire Strikes Back," but it does hold its own in the Star Wars...

Pros: Fun and simple

Cons: Group of 4 or more needed

Review: This epinion is not about STAR WARS: Episode One. At the time I'm writing this epinion, there are 262 critiques on the movie so my contribution is completely a waste. But i wanted to let anyone over 21, who happens to stumble upon this entry about a...

Pros: neat graphics, nice costumes

Cons: neat a more define plot

Review: I decided to watch the movie due to the fact that I had grown up loving the Star Wars. They had the most unexpected plots and adventures a kid growing like me could ask for. Everything is neat and the characters were great.

The plot was...

Pros: Excellent Special effects, Pod Racing is adequate.

Cons: Poor Story Telling, Bad plot, horrible character development, bad directorial choices.

Review: By now, everyone has heard the many criticisms of Episode I. However, in face of the recent re-release, which I am told was done for charity, I will painfully reopen this ill-healed scab and review The Phantom Menace.

In the 20+ years since...

Pros: Action, Clean, Good Family Movie

Cons: none

Review: We brought my 9 year old nephew to see this. From the very first scene there is nothing, but action. I got a sense of excitement thru the whole movie. It is very rare that you can bring children to an action movie, and not worry. However this one...

Pros: Effects, Action, More Star Wars!

Cons: Predictable

Review: Not perfect, but definitely good enough, especially for hungry fans who waited patiently for years.

Everyone agrees the effects are amazing. The robot fight scene is fantastic. The characters are lovable. The Jedis battle like never before...

Pros: Amazing CG, lightsabers, Jedi, Sith Lords

Cons: silly characters, not enough adrenaline

The Bottom Line: It may be the weak link by comparison, but it's still Star Wars. That's good enough for me.

Review: I hear so many bad things about episode 1, yet it s still among the top movies of all time. Is it just coasting on the success of the original trilogy or is it not as good only when compared to its predecessors? It s my least favorite of the 5 & I...

Pros: Action, funny and will keep your attention

Cons: none

Review: I had never been a Star Wars fan until this movie was released. I saw it just as a favor to my husband. I even said that I would watch it with him, but that I knew that I would not enjoy it. Once I began to watch the movie, I got very interested in...

Pros: Spectacular visual effects. Nice comedy quotient and exciting action.

Cons: Too childish at times. Look and feel of film not dark enough.

The Bottom Line: Great sense of wonder and amazement. The Star Wars and Jurassic Park film have these, that is why they are so popular.

Review: Compared to the other Star Wars films, this one scrapes the bottom of the barrel. But by no means is Star Wars: Episode I- The Phantom Menace a bad movie. The film is slightly above average overall. 36

Many people knock the film for its...

Pros: See below

Cons: Unrealistic. Annoying.

The Bottom Line: Don't waste your money.

Review: I was talking to a girl that I worked with in a coffee house in Northern California. She said that she worked at a toy store in San Franciso. While at the cash register, one day, a customer asked her what she thought of the Phantom Menace. She said,...
