The best of the 1999-2005 edition

Rating: 8/10 (24 May 2005)

STAR WARS EPISODE III: REVENGE OF THE SITH is the best of the Episode 1,2 and 3, by other words; "the new ones". George Lucas has achieved great and makes it all come together in a very convincing and entertaining way. Opening with a stunning opening sequence filled with action and laughs, the new Star Wars movie convinces immediately and sets off in a brilliant loop in Anakin becoming Darth Vader.
With Hayden Christiansen starring as the lead role, the movie has actually got some very good acting here - Palpatine, Obi-Wan and Padme are all over the usual Star Wars acting here, looking away from the 70ties and 80ties movies. Episode I introduced us again to the huge universe and it's so amusing watching two different trilogies spinning around their own stories. While I, II and III is mainly about the evil Empire coming to birth and the rise of Darth Vader, is IV, V and VI about the final war between good and evil. Ewan McGregor is also very nice watching being in his third Star Wars movie, he has truly grown into a Jedi-master here. And when Yoda blew everyone away by showing off in Episode II, he also manages to show his skills here, very entertaining by other words! EPISODE III is the best of the new trilogy, and has got all the money-shots and great Star Wars effects, and as it starts it's one ride down into the growth of a evil Empire lead by terrifying Emperor (former known as Chancellor Palpatine) and Anaking being cheated by the lie he thinks is the truth. Just growing darker and darker this third achievement is a fantastic way to end it, and let people simply again enjoy the fabulous Star Wars trilogy spinning from 1977 to 1982.
STAR WARS EPISODE III: REVENGE OF THE SITH is very, very worthy and makes the six movies about the galaxy so far away complete, and it's so freaking entertaining and cool! And as everybody knows, Star Wars has got many of the most amazing gems ever made on cinema. The light-saber being cooler than anything else, and the birth of Darth Vader?! The lord of evildoing! I mean, can it be any better than this? It's truly a great ending and opening to Star Wars, and you really can't complain much here. By all means, see it!
