Review of Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999) by Chip R — 11 Dec 2017
The best star wars movie out there.
Some online voices have determined this movie isn't good, but how many of them have spent their off time sharing videos of acrobatic lightsaber duels? How many of them always talk about darth maul? They can say what they want, but this movie spawned the 2nd explosion of star wars, and helped create what it is still doing today by propelling it forward with the strongest force to date.
Backworld illegal podracing, exciting lightsaber fights, the best looking planet in the star wars saga, new style of lightsaber yet unexplored, 3 person duels, the best fight scene music in the saga, the most sleek starships of the saga, political intrigue, seeing the jedi order and how the jedi were before the 'dark times'. Obi-wan as a padawan, and yes, if you a funny gungan who is in fact amusing if you put aside that online lemming hate.
This is the best movie of the saga.
