I can't believe how many people rip this movie apart, yet it averages 7.0 out of 10 stars! I'm not sure why people hate this movie. If you're really into the story line of the original series, then you should be interested in how it all began. If you just like a good story, then it fits into that category. If you like special effects, this has that as well. Yes, this movie has its weak points-Jar Jar and baby Anikan-but Ewan McGregor and Liam Neeson were excellent in their roles. If there had never seen the original movies and this came out, it wouldn't get near the trashy reviews it gets here. People expected way too much. Even George Lucas said before the movie came out that people shouldn't expect too much - it's just a friggin' movie.

This show isn't as bad as some here believe it is. I think they were expecting more X Files or something. Yes, some of the jokes are bad, but some are pretty good, and I assume those who don't get them just don't understand the humor. I like the ideas for the plots, especially the episode about the water powered car. Poeple don't often think of the consequences of their actions, even if their actions are well-intended.

As for the idiot who complained about the grammatical issues with the name of the show, it's called a play on words. Yes, there's three guys. But, they're more or less working alone, so it's a lone group. If you don't get the title, no wonder you don't like the show. You probably don't understand the subtle humor.

My brother had me watch this movie when I was first learning how to play guitar, and I loved it. I just happened to catch it on WB the other day and thought I would write about it. Someone mentioned earlier that Macchio must have had to practice a lot to look like he was actually playing. I read some where that he actually was playing most of the movie. There are times when you can tell he isn't playing, like in the bar with Willie. Anyway, great movies, I love the Blues, especially slide guitar.
