Excellent movie

Rating: 10/10 (22 May 2005)

To start with, I am one of the very few who liked the two previous movies, The Phantom Menace and the Attack of the Clones. It did not come as a surprise for me that I liked this movie. I want to see this as soon as possible, for the second, third, fourth..... twenty-seven millionth time! OK, the 27 million times is an exaggeration, excuse me.
BE WARNED: This review DOES contain spoilers.
The fight scenes were most excellent, amazing and spectacular. There are a lot of special effects, which looked realistic to me, the saber fights were quick, spectacular, reminded me of the special abilities of the Jedi. They are fast and deadly, as seen in the first part of the movie(*). Anakin's movements and his fight with Count Dooku were very good. I regret that there was no more time for their duel and Anakin did not kill him on his complete own. When they escaped from the falling elevator, it reminded me James Bond! I was one of the best moments in the entire movie. The space battle at the beginning was better than the one we saw at the Battle of Endor(I dare say this). The worlds which were displayed almost stopped my heart beating. Fantastic. The battles between the Clone troopers and the Droids gave a fantastic feeling, especially the one in where Grievous got killed. Now, let's talk about what I did not like: (*) = The Jedi got killed way too easily. I can't believe that Ki-Adi Mundi could fend off three blaster shots and got killed by a fourth one. He is a member of the Jedi Council and is it the best of his knowledge? Kit Fisto also suffered a quick death in the fight with Palpatine, which I find hard to believe. How can anyone, even Palpatine kill FOUR Jedi knights(among them Mace Windu, the best saber-wielder in the galaxy) in a single fight? The two other Jedi knights were not even able to fend off a single parry and Windu's death was disappointing. I would have preferred if he got killed by Anakin in a face-to-face duel. Poor Secura Aayla, she did not even notice the situation when she got a blast to the back. Why I say all this: The Jedi 'youngster' who defended Bail Organa from the republic clones fended off more shots than any of the three Jedi mentioned above combined(Kit Fisto, Ki-Adi Mundi and Secura Aayla). Perhaps it is this child who was the chosen one? Poor youngster fought well, but got shot, which is understandable considering he is a mere apprentice. OK, let's get back to the Main characters: Padmé's acting was good, but the dialog written for her was not first class, which is true. I felt sorry for this couple when Anakin choked Padmé. In retrospect, I don't think it was feasible that Obi-wan defeated Anakin in the saber fight on the lava planet(I don't know how it is exactly spelled, so I omit to mention its name). It was so disturbing to see the Chosen one suffer from the heat and Obi-wan suffer from what he was seeing.
