Outstanding! Thank you Mr Lucas, you outdid yourself. I loved it. The visual spectacle of the SFX was astonishing. The music was soul stirring. The costumes were incredible. The aliens were amazingly real and lifelike and not just like people in a rubber mask ... thank you Henson Creature Shop for you great contribution. Thanks too, to Brian Henson for making Farscape where the new makeups and creatures were perfected over the last few years.
The only disappointment - if you could even call it one - was that it wasn't anywhere near long enough. I felt some of the back story could have been included and the cuts from one point to the next left huge gaps in answering why and how Anakin was so easily swayed. I hope the bits that ended up on the cutting room floor make it into the DVD when it is released. But all in all, it was a wonderful climax to the Star Wars saga. I laughed, I cried and I cheered. I do so hope Mr. Lucas changes his mind and gives us the rest of the story! You hear? We need the last trilogy!!!
Go see it - you won't be disappointed!
