Not that great.

Rating: 5/10 (25 March 2007)

This film wasn't as great as I espected. First of all, we all knew what was going to happen and Lucas just made it has we espected, a trilogy where Anakin becomes Jedi, falls in love with Princess Amigdala, is turned into the dark side and has twins. Com'on Lucas haven't you got anything else to offer? With all that money couldn't you hire a decent script-writer? I mean, each episode had to be a story in itself and seriously this episode had less plot than ever. What makes it interesting is the last 30/40 minutes when it starts linking to A New Hope, the rest is pure trash. The battle over Coruscant in the first minutes was uninteresting at all, the dialogues between Padme and Anakin where absolutely boring and the conversation of Anakin was just so stupid. Hey, what do we do with Count Dooku? Just kill him in the first scene. 'Woo Anakin, do you love me? Yes but I have to save you from dying so I think I will turn to the dark side'. But never mind, hey don't worry if you didn't like the plot, here is ILM to save the day, just look how good the digital effects are and enjoy.
With such good actors (except Hayden Christensen) George Lucas managed to mount the worst acting in a film for the year 2005. We know George Lucas is not a very closed to actors director. He just shoots and says 'OK, that's fine'and then puts the digital effects all over the film, like you put a whole pot of mermelade over a toast. Oh! I forgot to say! Lucas doesn't like having to direct a film? So why does he do it in this trilogy? Is it just because there is no budjet as in ANH.
Lucas had it all to make a good trilogy: money, influence and time,and he let it go. Maybe someone will retake the idea in a few decades time doing something (I prey for) completely outstanding...
