REEL DEAL: Star Wars Episode 1 3D REVIEW

Thought not yet born when the first Star Wars Trilogy was shown, I was able to catch up with its VHS copies back in the 90's. And after  11 years since it was shown in theaters (way back then), the force is back and in 3D in Star Wars Episode 1 The Phantom Menace.

If you are a true blue Star Wars fan and you want your kids to experience the epic galactic trilogy in 3D which makes the movie more interesting. 

In this movie, the saga starts in the planet Naboo ruled by Queen Amidala but tensions rise us with the Trade Federation. With Jedi Knights Obi Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn, getting involved in the planetary crisis, they go on a mission to help the Queen and all the inhabitants of Planet Naboo.

This also where the Jedis meet the young Anakin Skywalker and his great power within. We also see the dark society of the Sith, and one of those is Darth Maul.  And with the 3D effect on the movie (and vibrating seats) enhancing the experience makes the movie make a lasting impression for first time viewers (like me).

REEL DEAL: The Force is Back in 3D

THE FORCE IS BACK IN 3D “STAR WARS EPISODE 1 THE PHANTOM MENACE”

From visionary filmmaker George Lucas, “Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace” is back with an immersive 3D dimension for a richer cinematic experience.

Following the first acclaimed and hugely successful Star Wars films, ”Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace was released in 1999.  The movie starred Liam Neeson as Qui-Gon Jinn and Ewan McGregor as his apprentice Obi-Wan-Kenobi, a determined young Jedi Knight. Natalie Portman played Queen Amidala. Jake Lloyd starred as Anakin Skywalker. It is a fantastically exciting adventure set 32 years before the events of the original.  Writer, director and producer George Lucas is the creator of the phenomenally successful Star Wars saga and the Indiana Jones   series. Lucas directed his first feature film, THX 1138, in 1970. In 1971, Lucas formed his own film company, Lucasfilm Ltd. In 1973, he co-wrote and directed AMERICAN GRAFFITI. Four years later, Lucas wrote and directed STAR WARS, which broke all box office records and earned seven Oscars.

The Star Wars saga is a modern-day fairy tale reflecting the vision of George Lucas.  Lucas imbued this new myth with pieces of American pop culture, including movie westerns, swashbucklers and – for seasoning – Japanese samurai epics.  Star Wars was also a reaction against Watergate, Vietnam and other periods of domestic turmoil that seemed to undermine the concept of the hero for disillusioned Americans.
