OK first I just want to clarify I am a Star Wars fan. Granted no movie will ever be perfect, but this one is far from it. I expected this episode to be dark and dismal, and to a point it was. It just seemed that the "lets make this movie for kids" aspect was in high gear. For starters is it absolutely necessary for every robot to speak in the movie no!! It's the constant talk from the droids that take away from the movie the entire time. Then there is R2-D2, that was just lame. Now lets move on to the Jedi. What the heck Mace Windu can sense a plot to destroy the Jedi, but hey lets not warn any of them or take any precautions. Then the way most of the Jedi die is unbelievable. Mace Windu gets punk-ed, Aayla Secura doesn't even draw her weapon (and that ticks me off because she best's aura sing and returns from the dark side), Ki-Adi-Mundi at least tried but goes down rather easily, Kit Fisto and two other Jedi get killed by Palpatine in under 5 seconds. I mean these are the Jedi right what happened? Then you have Yoda getting beaten like rag doll. Other characters like Padme just cry all the time (and this is the headstrong determined character from the first two movies) But the good does out way the bad. The circle is now complete and the whole story told. We now know way Obi-wan and Yoda Disappear when they die later on in the series(it turns out they are not related to the wicked witch of the west) We see why Palpatine is all disfigured and just how manipulative he is. Over all the visual aspect was nice but the backgrounds just a little to busy, the fight scenes where OK, but a little over the top. All in all there was a lot I would change through the movies including episodes 4,5,6, but hey there not my movies. So with the saga complete what can we say. Lets go the way the original Star Wars would have wanted it..... may the force be with you.
