Better than the last, still not as good as the first.

Rating: 6/10 (14 October 2005)

I am not really surprised that this movie did well at the box office. I was disappointed once again, by this installment. Really everyone else seems to think that Lucas has redeemed himself. But really, it isn't as good as the first three. It isn't as good as half of the movies that hit the box office this year. Yet everyone is just thrilled that it didn't stink as bad as the first. One thing that really disappointed me was that this one didn't live up to the promises of the first three movies. Obi Won said in the first movie how great a Jedi Anakin was, and how great a friend. I felt let down that we didn't get to see him being a great Jedi. I didn't see him being great at anything, but whining. Obi Won kicked some major butt, and the fight scene at the end where Obi Won carved him up like a turkey was cool. It also didn't make any sense that Mace Windu could get the emperor on his back in a fight. Then Yoda turns around and gets his little green bottom spanked in a duel. Isn't Yoda supposed to be the best swordsman ever? And another thing that bothers me is, at the end the Jedi, we were led to believe that the Princess was raised by her mother. Now we find out that she didn't know her mother either, so that is kind of don't make any sense either because it comes up at the very end of the movie and Luke wants to know what his Mom was like. Leah say she was sad. Maybe she should have told him it didn't matter, because she was adopted. Seriously what did Leah's stepmother have to be sad about? There are just way to many let downs to go into. Watch it if you want. It isn't the greatest, but it is better than the last two.
