Nobody could possibly expect it to be that bad

Rating: 2/10 (24 May 2005)

All right, just returned from the cinema. Frankly, I didn't expect much of it. I went to watch it for the main reason that I've seen all SW movies around the time they came out so I wanted to watch the last one as well. But - what I didn't expect was that mind-numbing assault of unbelievably bad crap. The acting was in a galaxy far, far below any known standard, the dialogue made me grind my teeth (it was a true rival for the abysmal Blade III) and George Lucas' idea of tying up loose ends to connect EP III with IV is something very much like what a six-year old boy would think up. Every time Hayden Christensen attempted to put on an evil or angry facial expression I was forced to summon all strength not to explode with laughter. I could go on now for about an hour but I'll spare the eventual readers of this comment and myself the time. In summary, the movie was a waste of money.
I honestly don't understand how more than 48% of the voters could give 10 points. 2/10 from me for the special effects which were extremely well made but this can't save a movie that lacks everything else.
