While there are plenty of films with a cult following, George Lucas' 'Star Wars' franchise is probably cinema's closest equivalent to mainstream religion. When the first film appeared in 1977, brazenly designated
It's Got: Wookies (and Chewbacca's 'first' appearance); Yoda wielding a mean sabre (again) and saying everything back to front (again); the emergence of Darth Vader; and a liberal spin on the War against Terror.
It Needs: Better writing and tighter editing.
Alternatives: Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope; Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back; Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi; Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace; Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones
Summary: Everything that has a beginning has a middle - and while this centerpiece to the 'Star Wars' saga may indeed be middling, it still beats 'Return of the Jedi' anyday.
