Smells Like Teen Spirit

Date of Review:  Jul 5, 2000
The Bottom Line: If you want a better movie, you best lower your expectations first.
Review: Although it was successful at the box office, Star Wars, Episode One: The Phantom Menace was a disappointing film with few admirable aspects. $110 million bucks worth of CGI both helped and hurt the film. Jar Jar Binks and Jake Lloyd practically...

Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace And So the Star Wars Story Begins

Date of Review:  Aug 30, 2000
The Bottom Line: The start of the Star Wars mythology begins here.
Review: I better say something about Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace before I lose my nerve again. I usually don't habour any preconceptions or expectations before watching a movie, but it was really hard to do so with Episode I. After all, this is...

It was sort of a let down for hardcore fans. Maybe it's because George Lucas actually wrote this one himself.
