Better, but not as good the first three

Rating: 7/10 (19 May 2005)

This movie had a lot to live up to and while an improvement over the first two it in this trilogy it would not be a great movie if it stood alone. I found myself wondering what uncaring person had written the stilted love scenes. I saw no reason for these two people to like each other nor any real emotion between them. Skywalkers descent into the dark side was a series of missteps by an extremely gullible fool and rather then feel sorry for him I thought he was massively foolish and naive. It was a good try but the acting was lacking, even the usually very good Ewen Mcgregor, and character development was poor. The movie was fast paced and entertaining but don't expect anything more.
