Not what I expected.

Rating: 3/10 (14 June 2005)

When I sat down for the third instalment of the recent Star Wars Saga I was expecting a roller-coaster ride of epic proportions, how unenthralled I would become.
I decided to review the film from a film perspective not as a Star Wars film.
Unfortunately this meant that it became a drooling apoplectic fit of a piece of cinematography.
Lazy directing, editing and writing left much to be desired, only partially saved by the enormity of the special effects. As for the acting, Haden Christiansen is known as the talent vacuum, not for no good reason and even Ewan McGregor couldn't save face.
Some sloppy dialogue lost tension and animosity with the characters leaving you hoping the battles would suffice, unlikely.
George Lucas is just flogging a dead horse making millions out of the Star Wars faithful and it makes me sick.
