There Could Not Have Been a Better Conclusion to an Epic Saga

Rating: 10/10 (10 July 2005)

With Revenge of the Sith, George Lucas justifies the first two prequels a necessary expostion, and finally gets into the meat of the story. You can tell that this is the movie Lucas has had on his mind since the success of the first Star Wars installment. This is the movie all fans have been waiting for, and not only did Lucas deliver, he delivered the best conclusion the saga could hope for. There could be some minor spoilers below.
The first act of the movie is done in the same vein as the original Star Wars movie. With wit, a strong sense of adventure, and the search for a captive leader. However, it doesn't take long for the mood to darken as Anakin's long-awaited seduction begins. This is easily the most dramatic and heartfelt Star Wars movie, if not the best installment. The last ten minutes will make your jaw drop.
