George Lucas can now be crowned The Legend Slayer

Rating: 1/10 (1 June 2005)

Why the movie sucked: 1. Natalie Portman did a horrible acting job. 2. Hayden Christianwhatever was worse than a bad actor in a high school play. 3. The dialogue was so bad that I found myself as well as other moviegoers in the theater laughing my @ss off. 4. Lucas (The Legend Slayer) used way too much special effects. Was I watching the last installment of a classic or a 2 hour resume for Lucas's special effects people. 5. Anakin's fall to the darkside was like flipping a switch. 6. This movie was loaded with inconsistencies: a) R2D2 can fly? b) I thought the jedi were bad @ss warriors. Why were they dispatched so easily. c) Padme seemed awfully small for someone with twins. d) In the first Star Wars princess Leia says something to the effect of knowing her mother a little when she was very young - I guess she was not talking about Padme either that or her memory is so good she can remember things when she was 3 seconds old. e) General Grievious's was beaten way to easily by Obi Wan. 7. Is Lucas, The Legend Slayer, fixated on people hanging from very tall heights. How many times in all 3 prequels was Obi Wan hanging off of something during a big fight scene (Darth Maul, Jango Fett, General Grievious). How many times was Anakin? This got old very quick. Is George Lucas capable of originality, after all he did create the Star Wars universe. 8. Yoda's facial expressions were laughable. I liked yoda better in the original series, when he was a puppet. 9. The scene where Papaltine is using the darkside on Samuel Jackson and trying to talk in an evil voice was completely hysterical. 10. There still was no chemistry between Hayden and Natalie.
There were a couple of good things about the movie but not nearly enough to warrant the rave reviews by critics and certainly not enough for Revenge of the Sith to earn a spot on IMDBs top 250 list.
I predict that over the next 6 months, if not sooner, people will come to there senses and Revenge of the Sith will be seen for what it really is, a C movie with A++ special effects.
I would now like to address all the critics that were rating this movie an A/A-. You did a great disservice to your profession. I was not going to see this movie because the last two were so bad, however after hearing about the great reviews and reading several I changed my mind and went to see it. Thnaks to all your reviews I shall not rely on critic reviews anymore and I will spread the word that reviews are now extremely unreliable for an accurate, honest, and unbiased take on a movie.
