Best Star Wars Ever

Rating: 9/10 (19 May 2005)

I remember George Lucas saying after the release of 'The Phantom Menace' that audiences were looking for 'The Matrix' not 'Star Wars'. I couldn't disagree more. Audiences were looking for 'Revenge of the Sith'. Unlike 'The Phantom Menace' and 'Attack of the Clones' there is a clear enemy, an evil spreading through the galaxy and threatening the fate of all the characters. ROTS is by far the most emotionally driven film of the series, and features the best special effects in cinema history....hands down. Lucas has raised the bar once again in the realm of science fiction, and in 'Revenge of the Sith' has perfectly woven the entire saga to a satisfying conclusion.
