Speechless.

Rating: 10/10 (22 May 2005)

I left the theatre speechless. Most won't understand. Star Wars has made a huge impact on my life. And now its done. I cannot believe I am saying this, but this may very well be my favorite Star Wars film.
The film opens with two star fighters, a capitol ship, and a sweeping, soothing orchestra playing in the background. The two ships dance in space, fly over the hull of the capitol ship, and then it begins. We follow the two fighters as they soar down to the battle raging below, fly in out and in between the gigantic star ships, and then "The fun begins".
The film ends with the near-death of Anakin, and his revival as the Dark Lord Vader, the birth of his son and daughter, and Padme's subsequent death.
It was not a pleasing film, nor even a satisfying film. It was simply a film in which stuff happens. And I have never felt more complete.
