Movie Review--Star Wars: Episode I--The Phantom Menace

I decided to watch all the Star Wars movies again, though in story order, not in the order George Lucas made them.

Phantom Menace introduces us to a young Anakin Skywalker (I'd forgotten how cute that little boy was) and a young Jedi, Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor--not at his hottest). The pod racing scene is quite exciting, but Liam Neesom as a Jedi with a bad ponytail just didn't work for me. And that whole Jar-Jar Binks thing--I'm glad Lucas has admitted that JJB was a bad decision. The one guy I LOVE in the movie is Darth Maul. Good fight scene with him and Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon.

This was not a bad movie, but far from my favorite (Empire Strikes Back). The second one, Attack of the Clones was the worst by miles! Are you going to review all of them?
