Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Films Ranked Worst To Best (According To Rotten Tomatoes)
3. Star Wars
Score: 92%
Critic Consensus: "A legendarily expansive and ambitious start to the sci-fi saga, George Lucas opened our eyes to the possibilities of blockbuster filmmaking and things have never been the same."
Technically tied for second on this list with the next entry, the original film (now titled 'A New Hope') is the one that started it all. The original film introduced fans to the world of Star Wars and iconic characters such as Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo and Chewbacca, fighting in a battle against the evil forces of the Empire, led by Darth Vader.
The film is a space epic, which stands as a timeless classic. With characters who instantly become fan favourites, such as the wise cracking Han Solo, the strong willed Princess Leia and the hopeful Luke Skywalker, fans are given a group of characters to follow whose personalities work well off each other and carry the Original Trilogy with their character development and storylines.
From introducing Star Wars lore, alien races and giving the movie industry one of its most enduring villains in Darth Vader, the story of a young boy wishing to take on the Empire is one that will forever stand the test of time.
