Simply....wordless

Rating: 8/10 (18 May 2002)

I've seen SW-II, yesterday night, and...what to say? Simply perfect! Again, George confirmed his genius in directing, in creating and transmitting emotions. The film is complete: romantic, dramatic, astonishing, breathtaking, 2:30 hours of pure amusement. The characters are well-"designed", the actors well selected and, obvious, perfectly directed, and the battles...wow, a real thrilling experience! The moment I saw Yoda taking his lightsabre to duel with Dooku...unforgettable. And what about the perfect way of describing the Anakin's dangerous behavior that will lead him to the Dark Side? First, I was very frightened about this film, because it represented a milestone thru the entire SW saga, so there was the risk it could "ruin" all the good work done before, but then...I even stayed for the following projection, and it won't be the last, you can count on it! At the end, a prophecy: SW-III will be the best SW episode ever, the confirmation that George Lucas is one of the best directors ever lived, together with Sergio Leone, Stanley Kubrick and less more... Jesus, still 3 years...how will we do?
