Amazing how it all ties together

Rating: 10/10 (20 May 2005)

Of course, like every other Star Wars fan, I had been in much anticipation for this movie. Saying that it met my hopes for a fantastic way to finish the legacy, would be an understatement. Since I saw the movie at it's midnight sneak peak, I haven't been able to stop thinking about it, and how it all ties everything together setting the stage for episodes 4, 5 and 6. Since it is the third installment of the pre-quels, we already know some of the history and what happens to some of the characters later in the story. However, all it does is completes everything we perhaps have wondered about.
One thing that I do have to say is this: When I was leaving the theater, what stuck out in my mind was the stellar acting of Ian MacDermid. The transformation from Palpatine to the evil emperor was insane! Everyone in the cast did an excellent job, but Ian was superb. I thought that to myself, but after viewing some of the comments on here about this movie, I found that many people shared the same viewpoint. So we'll see what happens when the Oscars roll along next year!
