Why do so many people like this movie?
Review created: 04/06/08(updated 11/22/08)

If you are from a more recent generation, saw only the Star Wars prequels like "The Phantom Menace" or "Attack of the Clones", you are missing a lot. Even if you enjoyed these films, you may be wondering as to why Star Wars is so popular. What is the big deal? Why were so many people excited or interested every time a new Star Wars movie was released to theaters? Buy this DVD of the original movie from 1977. At least, rent it first. You will be likely to want to own it if you do the latter. Recent years it became known as "Episode IV A New Hope.” This is the one that started it all. Before this movie premiered in 1977, there was no such thing as “Star Wars.“ Also, catch "Episode V The Empire Strikes Back." You may very well consider these two movies some of the best movies you have ever seen! Even if you are not a science fiction fan. To complete the story, you will want to see “Episode VI Return of the Jedi.” Then you will see what all the excitement was, and still is, all about. I bought this DVD because it packaged the newly digitally remastered and revamped edition of "Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope" and the original non-remastered theatrical release simply known as "Star Wars." I like the remastered, but also wanted the original. You will like either one.
P.S. By the way, this review also goes to any one from any generation who never saw “Star Wars” and/or “The Empire Strikes Back.”
