Void and disappointing...

Rating: 1/10 (14 July 2015)

I re-watched this film the other day... I don't know what I originally saw in this film but giving the fact that the "new stuff" element was completely gone after a few years I was thinking:" this is kids stuff". I was and I would always be a huge fan of the original series but in this new series Lucas fell too much in love with his own creation. His attention for tiny details spoils the movie's mystery. Nobody understood too much about who's who in the original trilogy. Nobody knew what is the planet's name, or how those light sabers work, but I sincerely think that NOBODY CARED ABOUT HOSE THINGS. We just wanted the movie to go one forever and ever, or at least to borrow some more cash from our parents to watch it again that week. I literally had nightmares with Vader for weeks, I was in love with Carrie Fisher for months, that's what I'm talking about! Instead of these feelings I found myself picking of things like: General Grievous's voice is ridiculous, it's speech and laughter resembles that of a 5'year old in a condom commercial, Anakin is like an anguished kid that never owned a bike as a kid and in these days smacks the world with his Uzi (saber...whatever!), and all the rest of the characters make stupid and funny faces all round this film, especially in a fight. Really nothing serious comes to my mind because beside of a lot of CGI's and programmers staying after hours I could never identify in this film something with substance and subterfuge. And this is disappointing. The original trilogy made me think, put my imagination in motion, I wanted to be bigger and better things after 2 hours of watching the screen but this movie left me completely void. I gotta mention that I'm not a depressive type of individual but this film made me think that nothing good lasts.
