Wonderful corn
When good guys were good and bad guys were bad and there was never any doubt as to which was which.
Imagine yourself as a kid in a time when we didn't know a great deal about space travel and were willing to suspend what little we did know for the sake of adventure.
Forgive the costumes and sets that appear to be left overs from old war movies and Robin Hood films. Allow yourself to believe that there are clouds in space, rocket ships that sort of float about sounding like vacuum cleaners and ray guns that discharge lighting bolts that look like they are scratched into the film.
In short, quit being a grownup for an hour or two and enjoy this grandfather of "Star Wars"
