As with so many other sci-fi movies, so much potential lost.
I rate this movie up with Lych's Dune, Final fantasy movie, star trek the original movie. So much wrong with so much movie, with so much story. The expectations were too high, but the fans were all ready on the wagon. I was excited, At the peak of climax,... more
superb, adds depth and fills out the concept
This is a wonderful film, and the best judges of it are my kids. They have watched this - and forced me to watch it with them - at least 10 times in the last few weeks. I really like the characters in it and find all sorts of subtleties, many of them... more
Not great, but not totally bad....
I admit, this is my least favorite Star Wars movie. It's average, not as good as the hype, but not as bad as other hype. Jake Lloyd is not very good as an actor, and I also don't like kids in movies. I also think Jar Jar Binks should never have been used;... more
Excellent!
I, like many people, think that this movie has unfairly gotten a very bad reputation. I believe that because Episode II was admittedly not that great, that it has overshadowed Episode I as well. I personally think that while Jake Lloyd was only the... more
The first chapter of the greatest film saga ever conceived!
:-)
I have read the reviews on line here at Amazon.com about "Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace," some I agree with, others I don't. I remember when this movie was in the theaters, in fact at the theater I was at, I was the very... more
What the hell happened here?
What a really expensive yet completely awful film. Talk about a waste of celluloid. Jar-Jar Binks, anyone?
more
A Very Good Prequel!
This film is not as horrible as so many people are saying. It is actually very good. I enjoyed it as much as any of the old films. Keep an open mind.
more
parallel universe
OK, this was not "The Empire Strikes Back" or "Return of the Jedi". The reason people had so much trouble with this movie was they were looking for Luke and Lea, Han Solo, and the characters they were familiar with.
What George Lucas is doing... more
Wonderful beginning to the Star Wars Saga!!
This movie isn't a masterpiece, but it's definately a watchable beginning to the Star Wars Saga.
The Storyline is pretty good, the effects get extensive sometimes, but I think they storyling did what it needed to do.
They needed... more
That's NEGATIVE 5 Stars
People sometimes say things like "Elvis should have died in 1959". Their point being that our memories of the King would always be of a young, trim Elvis instead of the fat, sweaty Elvis who(while performing in a drug induced stupor)would forget the... more
really bad...almost not watchable
To call this movie a colossal disappointment would be an understatement. George Lucas kept us on hold for 10 years for this?
The Good:
The Pod Race
Lightsaber duel
Darth Maul
Liam Neeson and Ewan McGregor
more
A Long Long Time Ago....
Pod Race good; Jar Jar Binks bad. Ewan MacGregor good; Jake Lloyd bad. Special effects good; acting bad. Lightsaber duels good; Anakin's virgin birth bad. Empire Strikes Back really good; The Phantom Menace really bad.

a misunderstood movie
I think this was a great movie the only reason im giving it four stars was because of jar jar but even he has a point in the film as you will see in ep 2. People need to realize that this film is meant as an opener and as part of the whole story not as... more
while I have my issues
overall it was fair. It had its redeeming qualities. The pod race for one. The lack of mystical/spiritualism was a real disappointment. I could go on and on, but with so many reviews that pretty much cover the good and the bad.
I just want... more
IMAKIKUASS
The funny thing about this movie, other than it being horrible, is how people defend it. I actually know people who told me things like "you didn't like it because you expected it to be good".
Uhhh. Yay and so the @#$% what? Shouldn't it have been... more
The Saga Begins...
The Star Wars saga has thrilled audiences for over 20 years, and now we are all invited to bear witness to what started it all. In Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace, George Lucas takes us to the beginning. This movie is set many years before the... more
Has grown on me
I'm not sure if it is repeated viewing or the realization that the last film will be here soon, but this one has grown on me. Return of the Jedi was always the problem child for me. It was replaced when this one came out. Once again the effects are breathtaking,... more
