Review of Star Wars (1977) by Ron Pennington for The Hollywood Reporter — 20 Apr 1978
Lucas combines excellent comedy and drama and progresses it with exciting action on tremendously effective space battles. Likeable heroes on noble missions and despicable villains capable of the most dastardly deeds are all wrapped up in some of the most spectacular special effects ever to illuminate a motion picture screen.
The result is spellbinding and totally captivating on all levels.
