Movie Reviews

Chicago Reader - 9/10 by J. R. JonesThis look at Star Wars fanatics and their love-hate relationship with George Lucas turns out to be more interesting than most fanboy docs because director Alexandre O. Philippe touches on some fairly knotty matters of film history and creative ownership.
Cinematical - 9/10 by John GholsonFor disillusioned fans like myself, it's a unnecessary reminder of the things you hate about a thing you used to love.
New York Post - 8/10 by Kyle SmithAn open- and-shut case, but that doesn't mean it can't also be an entertaining one.
Times-Picayune - 8/10 by Mike ScottThe nerd-rage on display when discussing Lucas' ceaseless tinkering with his films -- to say nothing of the midi-chlorians debate -- is ... plenty entertaining.
The Ooh Tray - 8/10 by Ed Whitfield... The Modesto Merchandiser did a generation's imagining for them and left these kids with a mortgage sized bill for services rendered.
Cinema Crazed - 8/10 by Felix Vasquez Jr.Really a testament to the hollow fruitless worship of the Star Wars Saga...
Matt's Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Matthew PejkovicA surprisingly level headed exploration into the revolt of a fanatical fan base towards their messiah that is funny, insightful and just a tad silly.
Village Voice - 8/10 by Karina LongworthIt's an exhausting airing of nerd grievances, the monolithic arguments leavened only slightly by counterpoints seemingly inserted for comic relief.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Gary GoldsteinYou don't have to be a "Star Wars" nut to enjoy this fast-paced film, though it's sure to resonate most with those whose childhoods - and beyond - were shaped by the 1977 phenomenon.
Hollywood & Fine - 6/10 by Marshall FineA novelty item, but an often entertaining one.
