Very best movie i ever watch
I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
disgusting, overrated, pointless
Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
This is an excellent documentary, which contains highlights of the other behind-the-scenes films on the making of the saga, and some newer (for 1983 anyway) footage from ROTJ. George Lucas gives us his insight into what he was trying to achieve, and his frustration at the limitations of the special effects at that time. He also, interestingly, hints that he would like to return one day and make further instalments to the saga...Mmmmmm. Was that wise George?Anyway, it's a must see for any SW fan, and an essential purchase if you can find a copy. I've got mine.
