It was okay

Rating: 6/10 (20 May 2005)

It was average. Definitely the best of the new ones. Left me with several more questions than answers. Still there was the ridiculous dialog, but you cannot fault the actors for that. I can not stand how Lucas brings in all of these new characters for just a few moments in the movie and kills them such as General Grevious and Darth Maul just to name a couple. Where was Boba Fett? While a character like Tarkin is not even really introduced in this movie. It is frustrating to think that this is over on such a note. These new movies could have been so much better. However I cannot complain too much about the last one. I shouldn't have expected so much out of it after episodes one and two. I guess my biggest problem is concerned with Padme. She was not supposed to die. How did Leia remember her mother when she was a young child? I wish the ending was longer. Poor James Earl Jones got the crappiest lines. The talent he has was wasted. I don't remember the Darth of old with such asinine lines.
