The Best Star Wars

Rating: 9/10 (16 June 2005)

I've always been a fan of Star Wars. And I HATED the prequels... but this changed me. I was expecting to walk out of the theater disappointed, but man I wasn't. It had everything I was hoping for. Good FX, epic on every scale, good story, and some of the best action ever put on film. George Lucas restored my faith in him... ************* spoilers***** ************* Now my favorite part of the movie is it's PG-13 rating. And it earns it. (yay). Like, for example, Mace Windu has a lightsaber to Palpatine's throat. Anakin walks in. Palpatine is using the lighting attack on Windu, which he backfires with his lightsaber. It hit's palpatine right in the face, thus showing how his face got so scarred in it's graphic glory. As Mace is ready to deliver the final blow to Palpatine, Anakin slices of Windu's hand, and Palpatine finishes him of with a full blow to the face with his powers, flinging Windu out the window. **************** end spoilers**** **************** Jus' a little darker? Yeah. But that shouldn't stop yah. The final battle REALLY stands out, but I won't spoil it for ya.
9.9 Pros: The dark overtones of the whole story, the battles, and the FX. Cons: Anakins acting.
