Absolutely poor pacing that undermines its potential. The film is weighed down by long, tedious stretches of political dialogue that fail to engage, especially in the early scenes. Action sequences like the pod-race and the lightsaber duel are thrilling but feel too spaced out amidst drawn-out. The film's shifting tone—between dry political talk and sudden action—feels disjointed and fails to build consistent momentum. The Phantom Menace falters in delivering a gripping narrative, leaving the audience struggling to stay engaged.
