Star Wars Episode III Revenge of the Sith

Rating: Null/10 (2 June 2005)

There is just too much for me to talk about to be able to write in a single comment. Just see this movie. Better yet, watch them all together. I have, and it works. So Artoo doesn't use his jet rockets in Return of the Jedi, so what? We're talking more than a 20 year span between this and A New Hope. He could be intentionally falling into the sand, he could have had them removed. Who knows. Who cares? Everything else just friggin works. This movie, like Episode I and Episode II, is plot heavy to an extreme. Each sequence has meaning. Every Anakin scene adds extra momentum to the next Anakin scene. Without those lovey dovey scenes with Padme, his turn to the dark side doesn't work. If you don't see those scenes for what they are, his turn will seem forced and too quick. And if you don't include the events in Attack of the Clones, it still won't work. Every time Anakin makes a decision, something happens in another scene to change his mind or cement his decision, and just adds more fuel to the fire for him to make the ultimate choice, and he figures he has no other choice, and that's what adds conflict to his dilemma. It's no wonder his actions and his choice to join the dark side make him cry.
Otherwise more people have said enough about these movies that I would just be repeating the same points. One day I can get more in-depth. But trust me, there's a lot that can be said about this saga.
