Prequels will never live up to the originals

Rating: 3/10 (20 May 2005)

As far as how many reviews there are on this site for this movie I am pretty sure mine will go unnoticed, but I must say what I feel about this horrible attempt at unifying the 6 movies. Episode three had one good part and that was Yoda until the end when he just gave up. This movies blatant use of horrible cinematography, and over use of CG rockets it into the caliber of not worth seeing. Not only did this movie ruin my day(not because of sad story either). This movie has turned the Star Wars universe into something that can be underdone unlike the first movies.
This movie was lacking in acting dialog, and decent camera work, and during a few parts I was even tempted to walk out. THe story garnered no emotion from either me nor anyone I was with. I think that anyone who thinks this movie redeems Lucas just wants to be done with Star Wars so that the catastrophes called movies can end. This movie not only covers too much of a time span, but also could have been compressed into about an hour and been much better.
If you are a true Star Wars fan like me you will gladly accept the originals as being the only ones, and read the later books instead of wasting our precious money on garbage that Lucas spewed out after a long night of drinking. Another point that this movie lacks is it blatant use of a non existent cast which reduces the ability for the actual living members to interact with. I not only felt robbed, but also felt betrayed when i saw that even in scenes of battle in structures the clones were still CG. The worst of the CG clones being that of the captain under the emporers control when ever he took off his helmet I was tempted to boo due to the fact the Lucas was too cheap to even hire a real actor for those scenes. It wouldn't have been so noticeable if the CG wasn't jerky,and didn't feel out of place.
Lastly this movie not only show cases all the for mentioned, but also contains a story compressed for time constraints. This hurt the movie a lot, and ruined the story for me. The end especially was poorly thought out, and felt like they rushed it so that Lucas could be done with this monstrosity he calls Star Wars.
