Review of Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999) by Matt N — 15 Dec 2015

"MORE STAR WARS! MORE STAR...oh, was that it?".

Easily the worst film in the 'Star Wars Saga', 'The Phantom Menace' just falls flat and feels like a waste of time. There is too much reliance on CGI, the acting from Jake Lloyd (Anakin Skywalker) is the cringiest thing the world has ever seen, and Jar Jar Binks will make you want to punch the screen. However, it is still watchable and does hold up as a good film, but it won't make you say anything more than 'meh' when the credits roll.
