Forget Episode III

Rating: 10/10 (15 June 2005)

Forget about the Luke-warm Episode III; a movie franchise that didn't succeed it's predecessors by sticking to the all-CGI method. I liked Yoda better as a puppet anyway. Mr. Lucas gave us a great trilogy with Episodes 4 - 6; and that's the way it should of stayed. Now we have a new hero to film saga film making, Christopher Nolan. He has created the first of what I see to be many new Batman pictures. Batman Begins is a wonderful film experience. The original with Michael Keaton was an excellent movie, but this film surpasses any and all expectations of fans of the original two; I say original two because I'm trying to forget about the Schumacher additions. Batman Begins is a much darker, in depth film. And it will be very, very hard for viewers to find flaws in any aspect of it both as a stand alone picture, and when compared to the Star Wars trilogy.
