Truly great addition

Rating: 9/10 (19 May 2005)

First of all, hats of to George for redeeming himself. Sowly but surely. Episode one was garbage, Two was enjoyable and three was truly a great addition to the legend. My only real complaint is, as in most of the Star Wars, the dialogue is often horrible. It saddens me that with all the money spent on these films he couldn't get himself a script supervisor with intelligence enough to know that "I can't watch anymore" and "Oh Anikan, oh," are good ways to interrupt the flow. That said, unlike the other two prequels we actually learn a few things in this one, including answers to some questions raised by "non disappearing Jedi" from episode 1. Watching everything unfold towards the end of this film was like getting closure on wounds brought forth in childhood. Add to that the incredible style it was done in and I'm willing to call it a masterpiece. I'm confident that my future Star Warsathons will begin with this movie from now on. 1 and 2 will be a rarity though. But this definitely deserves presence.
