Quentin Tarantino's Star Wars (2002)
We're all familiar with the story: a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, on a planet called Tattooine, a boy named Luke Skywalker is adopted by the only remaining Jedi knight and helps the Rebellion destroy the Death Star after learning the ways of the force. However, what if "Pulp Fiction" director Quentin Tarantino had directed George Lucas' script, using Kenner action figures and stop computer animation?

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Just finished watching "Quentin Tarantino's Star Wars" and I don't really know what to think about it. I asked myself why I even watched this movie in the first place.I really don't understand why this movie is named "Quentin Tarantino's Star Wars", the movie has very little to do with Tarantino's style. The movie just mainly consists out of some "Star Wars" action figures that play scene's from "Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope". There are only few real notable Tarantino references and problem with them is that they are not really funny.I have a feeling that I probably would have liked this movie better if it had been longer and had some more story.3/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
OK a dude plays with his old Star Wars action figures, tape it, put some funky music for the soundtrack and steals dialogue from the Star Wars flicks. One or two references to Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction and BAM! QUENTIN Tarantino'S STAR WARS. It sparks some interest to losers like me but it totally fails at delivering laughs or even giggles. I'm sorry but I did better animation as a child, not knowing what I was doing. And what is that crap at the end : "Made with Macintosh". Geez that guy is proud isn't he? Heck he surprised me, I never knew you could edit video with a Mac! Hot diggedy! I'll buy three! Thank you Macintosh, you made this crap-fest possible.You know, I love parody when it's well done and subtle or even when it's trashy and in your face but this... this is half an effort. Like an hour of work, maybe two. God, why is it listed on IMDb???AVOID!
This is a good piece of animation but not a very good film... but it's not supposed to anyway. I am surprised that the "Royale With Cheese" dialog was NOT mocked. Overall, it's an entertaining piece of work, and I'm sure its director will find a job in animation - not in a director's chair.
"Quentin Tarantino's Star Wars" is a creative and imaginative piece of filmmaking. Using the Star Wars action figures we've all come to know and love (especially the rare Slave Leia figure) and the techniques of Quentin, the plot of Episode IV is told in all its glory. Filmed on an epic scale and filled with humor and sadness, tragedy and triumph, the movie takes us through a breathtaking journey of both the Star Wars universe and the work of Tarantino. I recommend that every fan of movies and Star Wars, as well as everyone else, check it out whenever they have a few.
