The best of the Prequels

Rating: 10/10 (5 August 2006)

It is impossible to judge this film on it's own. One has to have seen the Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones to really appreciate the Fall of Anakin Skywalker. And even though (most of us) know how the film is going to end, we still really feel for Anakin as he makes the wrong choices but for the right reasons.
I also wonder what it would be like to see the entire series from PM through Jedi, without having seen the original trilogy first. Some of the surprises we felt in 'Empire' and 'Jedi' are certainly changed by the events in this film particularly.
I know a lot of people were very disappointed with Episodes 1 and 2, having waited nearly 20 years for this part of the story to be revealed. However, Sith really is much better than the first two, both in action and drama. After Empire, Sith has become my second favorite chapter in the hexology.
