Revisit the classic about a boy, a girl, and a far away galaxy!

DEC

2007

This review examines the 2006 Special Limited Edition two-disc DVD set which contains the 2004 "revised" Special Edition of Star Wars - Episode IV: A New Hope and the original 1977 theatrical release version.

"A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...."

It's hard to recall a time when I, like millions... read full review »

Critical Review

The old ones are great

DEC

2008

The Star wars movies are really two sets of movies. The older classic ones and the new set which are the 1-3 of the set, time wise. The older movies we amazing, they had a great story, line and actors. Since there is such a time difference between the making of the two different sets, it makes the movies...

One of the greatest movies of all time

MAR

2007

I saw this movie 30 years ago when I was 7 years old. Recently my 8 year and 6 year old wanted to see it. Out of nostalgia I said ok. Some parents might think they were too young, but at the end of the day I think it was OK. We are pretty sensitive to not exposing them to violent video games and not allowing them to have guns. But somehow, this movie seemed worthy of an exception.

So, this review is what my kids like about the movie.

"Ummm, there was light sabers in it. There were guns."

"I liked Luke Skywaker"

Ok, so maybe I have not raised the next Siskel and Ebert. Let me just say...

A long time ago ... In a Galaxy Far Far Away

What can I say about the greatest movie ever made. This movie was the start of my Sci-Fi addiction. It still gives me goosebumps every time I watch it. The only problem is when you are watching all six. This movie or episode 1.

Star Wars is a classic, I Love the trilogy!!!

Star wars! The original trilogy is the best! It action packed and fantasy filled. I personally am a huge fan of Chewbacca! that giant fur ball is awesome! It's a great story about luke Skywalker and Princess Leia. Don't be mistaken though, they are siblings. With Darth Vader twisting things up, turns out he is there father! They are fighting for good and evil in this awesome, action packed, fantasy filled 3 movie set!!!

NOV

2008

Star Wars: A New Hope was origionally going to be just another space movie amongst a bunch of B and C rate science fiction movies in the late seventies (I believe 1977 to be exact) What happened within the first week of it's release was an unprecidented outpour of support, making it one of the most ageless movies ever to be created.

I myself was once a Star Wars buff. I can remembering my father mentioning that if I liked Science Fiction I should rent this movie, so I did. What was in store for me was a jouney from the desert planet of Tatooine, through the twisted corridors of the Death Star,... read full review »

I was pleasantly surprised when I went to Target.com to find the original Star Wars dvd movie for only $10.99! My husband told me he wanted it for Christmas - he has all of the other dvd's except this one - I happened to transfer a prescription to Target and got a $10 gift card for doing that, so I thought I would check to see how much the movie was there. $10.99 for a brand new movie is outstanding! So if anyone asks for this movie, Target is the place to go! I know anyone who loves Star Wars probably already has this, but just in case they don't, this is a perfect gift without spending... read full review »

its a good one

watching with kids, a comedy fan

NOV

2008

Like it's two predecessors, but unlike the later prequels, Star Wars VI - Return of The Jedi had stunningly realistic and believable special effects and filming sets. The story was a masterpiece, and the Han Solo - Princess Leia relationship done far better than most Science Fiction films manage. A few cliches did nothing to detract from the film (after all, they became cliches by being really good lines). Possibly the best of the Star Wars films, at the peak before the decline of episodes I, II, and III.

Star Wars has been in my life since I can remember. Episode IV is a year older than I am, but I can't ever remember a time when i did not know Star Wars. Growing up, my brother and I had many toys (regrettfully we have either destroyed, sold or lost) that we would play for hours. I reccommend this movie to everyone I know. I lend out my DVDs of the original trilogy hoping to breing new fans on board. However, no matter how many times I make a fan they could never be a bigger fan than I am. So I beg anyone that has seen this movie, help me in my quest to familiarize it with the rest of the world.... read full review »
