"The Force will be with you. Always." One of the most popular movies of all times (not to mention one of the highest-grossing, if not THE highest-grossing, films of all time), Star Wars is one of those rare films that just gets better with each viewing. A classic story of good versus evil, set against a mythical, intergalactic background, Star Wars takes us on a magical journey that is far deeper than the two hours that the picture runs for. It is this film that introduces us to Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), Obi-Wan Kenobi (Sir Alec Guinness), Han Solo (Harrison Ford), Princess Leia Organa (Carrie Fisher), Darth Vader, and, of course, C-3PO, R2-D2, and Chewbacca.
Since virtually everyone is familiar with the story, there is little else to be said. Unfortunately, director George Lucas keeps going back to the saga to re-edit it again and again and again, as he attempts to perfect the films. Someday, perhaps, we will get not only his final vision, but also that original cut that charmed millions of children (of all ages) back in 1977 (the same goes for the rest of the saga).
By the way, Lucas is gonna put all the films into 3-D. And, by God, it will be epic.
Rating:4/4
