All I have to say is YES!!!!

Rating: 9/10 (12 August 2010)

The original Star Wars trilogy revolutionized cinema, and is one of the best trilogies ever. Years later George Lucas created the abomination of a prequel "The Phantom Menace". Everything was done wrong in the film, and many Star wars fans like myself felt insulted. Then there was "Attack of the Clones" which was amazingly worse than the first prequel. After Lucas failed miserably with the first two Star Wars prequels we got this. This is what the other two films should have been. The writing is much stronger, the acting is way better, and the emotion is more powerful. How George managed to improve so much from such bad movies as the first two prequels amazes me. I wish that this kind of effort was put into the first two. Yes it does still have some terrible romantic dialogue, but it is in the movie way less than "Attack of the Clones" making it durable. The action feels like it has actual strength behind it from the film's writing. The dialogue is improved upon a lot. Acting is better from flat out everyone in the cast. Even Hayden Christensen has improved a lot. He doesn't deliver a great performance, but you can tell he took a few more acting classes. Then there is the powerful emotion in the film. This is the darkest in the Star Wars franchise. The atmosphere is very strong, and I actually do sorta care about the characters. Unlike the first two prequels. There is so many improvements, but the best by far is how entertaining it is. This film manages to capture the same kind of entertainment we got out of the original trilogy. It's a very entertaining film. It isn't as good as any of the original trilogy, but it is good enough to earn the name Star Wars.
3 and a 1/2 stars out of 4
Also Jar-Jar is only in it for 4 seconds, and doesn't say anything. YES!!!
