STAR WARS: EPISODE 1 – THE PHANTOM MENACE IN 3D



PG for sci-fi action/violence. In theaters 2/10. Ok for kids 9+. http://www.starwars.com/watch/episode-i-3d.html

Yes, it's true. Every movie will eventually head back to theaters in 3D, or so it seems. This first chapter of the Star Wars saga begins with Jedi apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) and his Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson) discovering nine-year-old Anakin Skywalker (Jake Lloyd), a young slave unusually strong in the Force. After winning a thrilling Pod race, Anakin journeys to Naboo with Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon, who content with a deadly foe named Darth Maul. Meanwhile, Anakin and the Queen face massive invasion forces – the first in a sinister scheme by dark forces known as the Sith. If you're like me, you probably need a storyboard to keep track of what's what, but this 3D theatrical release is a great springboard to watch the Star Wars saga again from the beginning.
