Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
Internet Movie Data Base link.
The more bearable of the second Star Wars trilogy, Episode III is still a huge disappointment. This is not an epic saga like The Lord of the Rings — this is a stiff, boring political intrigue movie.
The story attempts to be a bit more mature and deep, without really convincing. The myth of the creation of Vader is amazingly lame — he was basically left to die by Obi-Wan and Palpatine had to come rescue him. Wow, such evil. Not.
The movie is still enjoyable, with some good fights and special effects. And there’s Natalie Portman too.
Rating: Good.
