Half a movie

Rating: 5/10 (22 May 2005)

I'm incredibly surprised at the rating this movie is getting from IMDb users...as I write this, it's 8.3, which is WAY too high. This is a mediocre movie, at best (I give it a five). Is it superior to the first two of the "new" trilogy? Absolutely. But those were both total garbage, so making a better movie wasn't that hard. At least this one was watchable. The acting is still atrocious, and some of the events that happened later in the film are handled so poorly by Lucas and company that I almost groaned out loud. Oh, btw, I wanted to like/love this movie as much as the rest of you. It just didn't happen. Heck, the music isn't even that good.
