Tragic and sad. And I love it

Rating: 9/10 (2 June 2020)

"Revenge of the Sith" has some problems but it is one of those cases where I don't care. Indeed the movie has some of the best Star Wars moments to date and as a fan I can't do anything but love them. In particular the last 30 minutes or so are deep, moving, tragic and they clearly hit you: Anakin turning to the dark side (yes is a bit rushed but is very emotional), Palpatine's rise to the power, the birth of the Empire, Obi-Wan vs Grievous, Yoda against Palpatine. But nothing can't top Order 66 and Anakin fighting Obi-Wan on Mustafar and I think that those two moments are the best that Star Wars can offer. Both of those scenes are also combined with a memorable score like all the movie in general, in a few words another day at the office for John Williams. Personally even if I consider "The Empire Strikes Back" the better movie, "Revenge of the Sith" is my personal favourite for the reasons I explained. That "You were my brother Anakin, I loved you" gives me chills every time, it's so great. As I said at the beginning the movie has problems, mostly of those are common to the entire Prequel Trilogy (bad dialogues at time, heavy CGI, some acting...) but I don't care, I only enjoy its greatness!
