Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace

Thanks a lot to the uploader . I can't believe i actually found it here .I searched so much to start on star wars and I can't afford anymore subscriptions so thanks a lot for this .

In this episode, we can see both the growth and the root of dark side of Anakin. He takes part with his mother to training under Kwai Gan Jin. Through the adventure with Jedies, he grows, but the parting with his mother and the encounter of Padme become the root of his dark side. And it becomes his weakness. Also, Obi Wan is supposed to grow because of the death of his master. He cannot relies on master, ant the time comes when he has to becomes independent.By the way, this movie (Star Wars series) always brings unique villains. Their appearances, the ways of fighting, and characters are differ from each one. I think this is because not only attract audience, but also make the hardships for Jedies. This time, the villain's appearance is scary and his fighting strength is also powerful. I watched this movie when I was a child, but I like it so I watch it still now.

This movie begins the back story of anakin skywalker and obi wan (amongst other characters). This movie has received a lot of criticism over the years, including some recently with the release of Ep 7 in the franchise (although to be honest I won't ever count that as canon. Having just seen The Force Awakens I had to come home and rewatch this. It is certainly not a perfect movie, some of the dialogue is awkward and George Lucas has tried to explain stuff that didn't really need explaining and it's a bit too 'american pop culture' in parts for me but the story is good. The story of Anakin being taken away from his mother (albeit with good intentions) is a good story and the young actor who plays him is quite likable. Natalie Portman is great. All in all a much better movie than it is usually given credit for

This movie is a classic example of how we can allow the media to persuade our way of thinking. I liked this movie a lot when I saw it in the theaters, but after review after review panning it, my memory become colored by them. I just recently got the special edition on VHS (widescreen is really the only way to experience these movies) and watched it twice. I loved it even more! One of the best parts is now I can actually understand Jar Jar Binks and Trade Federation characters. Originally their accents were just too thick to be comprehensible. I'm sure there are others that feel as I do, so go ahead, watch it again and see if you can find more to the movie this time around, I know I did.
