The Force Will Be with Us All, Forever.

Rating: 10/10 (23 May 2005)

I'm a diligent StarWars fan since having watched "Return of the Jedi" for the first time ever, along with my family. I was barely three-years-old at that time, but the myths behind the saga utterly mesmerized me to indoctrinate myself with it: from watching the previous two episodes I went missing before I was born to buying all merchandise toys spawned by the unprecedented franchise that rocked the American Continent nearly 30 years ago, with such titanic proportions.
"Revenge of the Sith" is the prime example of how Lucas and his staff exerted their creative imagination and cunning ingenuity beyond their physical and fantasy boundaries of the mind.
The last installment (chronologically the third one) in the Star Wars saga carved delightful images with it's fast-paced action sequences, visual orchestrations of digital animation (never seen before in cinematographic history), and bridging gaps between the two trilogies. I just cannot understand why many members of the original mainstream fandom, spawned way back in 1977 with the release of episode IV, have criticized so harsh and sternly this last StarWars movie.
Quite, on the contrary, Episode III delivers to the audience to explore Anakin's inner psyche and how his hunger to gain on more power steadily deteriorates his mind and soul to become, in what most fans ever anticipated since the end of episode six, the complete transformation into Darth Vader.
As for the side villains, General Grievous total carves on the soul disturbing and yet formidable imagery, just seeing him on action in full-motion, digital animation thrills me as to admire all the capacities and tricks that this character is able to pull through and expecting what other dirty moves prepares for his unsuspecting Jedi foes; gotta love how he duels it out.
Another point for the movie is the music that beautifully captured the mood and atmosphere for each drama and action sequence. Kudos to Williams for making wonders with the soundtrack. Specially fond to Grievous theme, as well as for the "Duel of Fates" played during the final two showdowns.
Before the release of the prequel trilogy, I was very convince that "Return of the Jedi" was my top favorite of the StarWars films, but having witnessed the bridging of the Skywalker generations, now "Revenge of the Sith" became my top StarWars films followed a second call by "Return of the Jedi".
The Force is alive and evidently present in this film, I can assure you of that.
