Movie Info

No other series of films has achieved greater commercial success, or captured the attention of as many viewers, as Star Wars, its two sequels, and the continuing series of prequels. Filmmaker Tariq Jalil had long been fascinated by the passionate following the films inspired, and when the publicity machine began rolling for the release of Star Wars: Episode I -- The Phantom Menace in 1999, he assembled a camera crew to document the fans who waited in line (some for as long as a month and a half)

Unrated, 1 hr. 2 min.

This documentary about Star Wars never achieves its aims because its approach is too scattershot.

As Luke once said, what a piece of junk.

Triumph the Insult Comic Dog did a far better job - and actually a more sensitive job - with the fans waiting outside for the start of Episode II.

To the film's credit its topic supplies a wealth of material, philosophy, and entertainment -- and victim to it, A Galaxy Far Far Away meanders in the wide, overwhelming scope of its course.

Im not a Star Wars fan or a Star Trek fan but I watched the Trekkies documentaries & I watched this 1.In my opinion, A Galaxy Far Far Away is just as good as Trekkies.Both were entertaining & interesting to watch.I think if you're a fan of Star Trek you'll still like this documentary & vice versa.My only thing is there
