Overall best sci-fi movie of all time - Star Wars Reviews

Given all the different variables that one must balance out (story, special effects, impact on society, production, acting, neato toys, etc) I think Star Wars is the overall best science-fiction movie of all time. I don't usually make such broad-sweeping statements. But I've given this a lot of careful consideration. Compared to other science-fiction, Star Wars characters are unusually believable, genuine in their reactions, and consistant in their personalities. Compared to dramas, crime-suspense movies, comedies, documentaries & media's other basic formats, Science Fiction in general has an uphill battle from the get-go. All those pesky not-currently-existant elements (lasar blasters, pan-galactic friendships, casual space-travel, light-sabres) all these ideas striving for believability, if not complete commonplace. Star Wars effortlessly overcomes these obsticles, while holding the auidience in a rapture of fluid excitement. It borrows the best adventure & wisdom from Merlin the Magician, Bruce Lee, Errol Flynn, James Bond... It is touching with a gentle, romantic humor. Then edge-of-your-seat swashbuckling as our dashing heroes continuously fight the forces of Evil. In the styles of old western gunslighers, knights in shining armor, World War II ariel dogfights and fantastic tales from a galaxy far, far away. Not overly sappy & sugar-coated (that was "Phantom Menace"); just straight-on important morals told in a wonderfully rich combination of good vs. evil, special effects and raw imagination. If you've never experienced Star Wars, you're letting the best in Life pass you by.
