I loved it. It was thoughtful and fun. Vader is a complex villain we sympathize with.

Rating: 9/10 (21 May 2005)

Vader is a complex villain we sympathize with. I liked almost everything about this movie. From the action packed opening scene to the tortured soul of Ankin as he toils with loyalty to his wife and loyalty to the state. This movie delivers real ethical dilemmas. The weakness of this movie is that there is so much action and plot that the emotional connections are not well explored -- So no acting Oscars, but my rating system gives extra points for ambition and operatic sweep.
You may have guessed that I am a fan, and Lucas was true to the fans by completing the story faithfully.
