alright, just not as good as the first three, but better than the last 2.

Rating: 7/10 (31 May 2005)

George still has problems working with live actors, and a serious problem with dialog. The movie is really good until the actors open their mouths, then the banal and trite seem to fly. Also, what on EARTH happened to Padme? she went from a kick butt queen to a whiny sob sister. It will be interesting how Lucas explains the discrepancy between what Princess Leia tells Luke about their mother and her dying right after the birth.
All in all, MUCH better than the last two movies, but he still needs writing and directing help. To bad Kasdan wasn't asked to direct and write.
