Logically Confusing

Rating: 6/10 (11 June 2005)

Like so many others, I was looking forward to this film. And considering most aspects, viewers will not be disappointed. The action is relentless. The pace is breathtaking. The betrayals and reversals are heart-wrenching. It is exactly as predicted: the darkest of all 6 Star Wars movies.
Lucas has been a stickler for perfection in his movies and in this case, I feel I've been let down. Darth Sidious tells Anakin "Good and evil are just a point of view." Then Obi-Wan Kenobi tells Anakin, "Only a Sith lord deals in absolutes." Well, Mr. Lucas, which is it? Are Darth Sidious and his apprentice truly relativists, as so many who are evil use relativism to justify themselves? Or are the Sith *absolutely* dealing in absolutes. And here's the true logical contradiction...if ONLY a Sith lord deals in absolutes, and Kenobi said "only," meaning absolutely no one else, isn't that a logical fallacy? It's amazing how one misplaced line can make a terrific movie into something far less than it could be.
