May the fun be with you

Rating: 9/10 (22 May 2005)

WARNING TO PARENTS: This not a movie for children under 10. They would most likely be perturbed by the movie.
A dark room. The door opens and Anakin Skywalker steps in. From behind chairs come 5 or 6 year old Jedis. One says, "What should we do, master Skywalker?" Anakin pulls out his lightsaber and turns it on.
That is a description of the most disturbing scene in the movie. That one scene is one reason kids shouldn't see it.
Other than those sorts of implications, it is a great movie. It is a worthy ending to the series. It ties together the plots of the two trilogies. It shows how Anakin succumbs to the dark side. Luke and Leia are born near the end.
The one thing that they really sticks in your head is how disturbed Anakin is. They show him leading clone troopers into the Jedi Temple. He even kills the kids in the room. This is a very hard moment to stand. Some are convinced Lucas could have come up with a different way to show Anakin's perturbation.
More on the good. The battle scenes are more grand, more spectacular than all previous movies. The plot and pace are just right. If you are a Star Wars fan, go see it.
Reason for Rating: Numerous decapitations, disturbing implications, a brief shot of a beating heart, and somewhat scary images
