Pretty Poor Indeed

Rating: 4/10 (4 June 2005)

Should Lucas be allowed to mess with his own films? Well that certainly went far enough when he meddled with 4-6 , quite glad I've still got each of them on original VHS from before 1997 even if they're a little tired , But even that doesn't compare to the dross that is Episodes 1-3 and Revenge of the Sith merely finishes this insult off , and finally gives me the closure to disregard and forget all these prequels and be left with just the memory of the original 3 films even if it involves fuzzy lines and fiddling with the tracking . Altogether what lets this film down is not terrible acting or a bad storyline , it just simply is rushed and poorly executed by someone who is clearly not a good director , remember the best Star Wars Film by far was not directed by Lucas , and I agree with one other user that the turn to the dark side was more like an instantaneous flip to the dark side with no real progression or thought for actions , indeed another user points to the Godfather where Michael gradually becomes involved to protect his father but this is done with some consideration for the steps involved in such a transformation .
