The first animated Star Wars film bridges the gap between Episodes II and III and does so in splendid fashion. Consisting of huge scale battles and action sequences we get thrown into the middle of a war. The animation style is different, but works really well to give the film a very unique look. The story is also well written and really pulls you into this galaxy far, far away.
