First Viewing, early impressions

Rating: 9/10 (6 May 2005)

'Revenge' is the film that justifies the existence of the first two mediocre episodes because without them you can't fully appreciate this tragedy on the grandest scale. I don't think its a spoiler to say that the whole thing ends pretty badly but it is infinitely more entertaining then watching a little kid race pods and so forth. It also has incredible visuals that really dwarf the first two installments much like ROTK did with LOTR (lots of acronyms!) Based on my first impression, I rate this as the second best installment of the six films, slightly behind EMPIRE but this is so much darker and heavier than even that film that I may be inclined to change my mind and call this one the centerpiece of the whole spectacle. Then again I'm still in a daze from seeing it so I could be wrong...
