Star Wars: The Phantom Menace Review (Part 1 of 7)
RedLetterMedia

The first of seven parts of RedLetterMedia's long review of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. It argues that the film's central flaw is its characters and the lack of audience connection.
HN commenters recommend it as sharp film criticism and a lesson in filmmaking, and cite it when arguing the prequels failed on basics.
