Movie #70 - Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith

Title: Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith

Director: George Lucas

Release Year: 2005

Plot Summary: After three years of fighting in the Clone Wars, Anakin Skywalker begins his journey towards the Dark Side of the Force, putting his friendship with Obi Wan Kenobi and his marriage at risk...

Thoughts: (Very brief, I just wanted to get this up here since I saw it before any of you get to. Nyah. =b)

Easily the best of the prequels, not as good as the originals (which should surprise no-one). Suffered from many of the same problems as the "first" two, i.e. stilted dialogue, cheesy romance, etc., but had a better story to draw attention away from these flaws, which were mostly prevalent in the beginning.

It is definitely dark, too.

All in all, pulled the trilogy together quite well and led nicely into A New Hope.

Rating (0-10): 7.5

Recomendations: Like anyone's not going to see this. C'mon now.

i was, honestly, uber-impressed with this movie. it makes me not want to beat george lucas's ass any more. so much better than episodes 1 and 2. it is incredibly worthy of being associated with the original trilogy.

sure, lucas still doesn't know how to write dialogue and sure, he still doesn't know how to direct, but the quality of the story more than makes up for both of those shortcomings.

i thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this film and it restored my faith in this franchise.

rating: 8.8
