Lots of special effects and brutal fighting

Rating: 9/10 (26 June 2005)

*Possible spoilers below*
Much better than the boredom and confusion of 'The Phantom Menace', much more accomplished and exciting than the tedium of 'attack of the clones' and much better than any star wars movie (ever!) 'Revenge of the Sith' is a fitting end (or beginning) to the original masterworks done all those years ago.
Epileptics, sincerely, beware: the first 20 or so minutes may just have been the brightest I have ever seen on film, and I've seen a few. That does not take away the appealing nature of it, however, as Anakin and Obi fight for justice in some truly magnificent and very dark locations. Some brutal fights come shortly also...
Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith isn't great. It's brilliant. The excitement pumps fully through to the end. The film simply is epic, and better than any other Star Wars movie. And, what a shame (ironically enough) the only thing that makes this film just below perfect marks is the ending. A fitting ending would be after Obi leaves Anakin to die and shrivel up by the volcano. Instead, ending after ending ensues giving the film a rather messy feel.
Regardless, it's better done and just plain better than any Star Wars movie, and a shoe-in for Top 10 of the year.
