Best of the Prequels.

Star Wars: Episode 3-Revenge of the Sith (2005): Dir: George Lucas / Cast: Hayden Christensen, Natalie Portman, Ewan McGregor, Ian McDiamid, Samuel L. Jackson: The very best of the first three episodes. It is a very dark film about the induction of hate where Anakin Skywalker makes the final process over to the dark side. He is having nightmares that reveal images of Queen Amidala's death, and learns of her pregnancy but he is corrupted by Chancellor Palpatine. Setup is one battle after another with the slaying of Count Dooku but robots are responding in an irritating human manner. The climax delivers the emotional drive needed as Anakin becomes Darth Vader. Director George Lucus sets up the story to lead to the original classic trilogy. Hayden Christensen fairs his best as Anakin who becomes his own downfall. Ewan McGregor as Obi Wan Kenobi is faced with an unruly task. Natalie Portman as Amidala is greatly distressed as she senses the worst. She will bare twins who will become Luke and Leia. Ian McDiarmid is superb as the evil Chancellor whom corrupts Anakin and introduces the world to one of the most recognizable villains in movie history. Samuel L. Jackson plays fellow Jedi Mace Windu who ends up in a battle to the death against the Chancellor. Final instalment showcases spectacular effects and a message of corruption. Score: 9 / 10
