 - loved this movieloved this movie from start to finish.nothing about this movie i did not like and no part of the movie i did not like great movie and so was the first movie but i do not know what happened to the second ond that one was completely off the chart dead. Rating:  - Payback, and about timeOkay, here we go: you waited patiently for Episode I and felt let down. Episode II was an outright betrayal. There's something left here in this franchise, right? There is a heartbeat here. If you can hear it through the clutter of Jedi Counsel del iberations, Mace Windoo doing his haughty strutting thing, and ignore the Chase of General Emphysema On a Lizard thing, you can watch and enjoy this movie. Hey. I'm here to help. We all wanted to see Yoda and Obi Wan do that fighter pilot thing, and here we finally do. The filmmakers owed us, big time, for the wretched Yoda performance of Episode II ("Dawson's Creek in Space"), which looked like it had been choreographed by the same guys who did "Xena: Warrior Princess" and shot by a team of CG artists instead of photographers. Hence, the camera work and fight choreography are vastly improved over Episode II. The plot is still loopy and ridiculous. (In a cut scene, we see that Padme took part in a high school Model UN to prepare her for her role as elected Queen. Yes. Really.) Never mind that. We want to see how Anakin became Darth, and that's saved for the Last Battle. Aside from the fact that Padme tells Anakin "I don't know you anymore," (WHAT?!), the battle is epic, sweeping, well choreographed, scored, and cut, it pays off big at the end and you get to see Anakin fully transformed into the bloodless and wrathful Darth. (Although he does yell "Noooooooo", which subtracts somewhat.) Lucas tried to wrap up a lot of things here, and there are a lot of skeins left lying around and aren't really tied up. Leah goes to live on Alderaan (we knew it as her adopted world) and Luke is busted back to Tatooine. Obi Wan goes there, too, to "look after" Luke from afar. In a bizarre moment, Yoda gives Obi Wan a calling card so he can hook up with Qui Gon. Okay, it's more like meditation, but does that make it better? Episode II left all us True Believers in a trance and desperate to salvage anything from the series gone amok. Lucas finally put out a movie without romantic interludes, some real drama, and without too much absurd racist stereotypes. This is as good as it gets, kids. I for one was glad to eat up. Rating: - The fans have it wrong!The other reviews are longer to read than the movie itself! The fact is, all six films are wonderful! If Lucas had filmed in order part one, two, three, four, etc. We as an audience wouldn't have cared by part five and the better fims would have been lost forever, selling nothing! But since Lucas filmed 4,5,6, and then returned to 1,2,and 3, focusing more on special effects, he kept his fans far more interested and sold millions, possibly billions! Lucas is a genius! I loved the Phantom Menace! It is a cool name and wonderful movie. Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith just got better and better! You love these movies! Go on admit it! You can keep complaining but you're not fooling anyone! Rating: - This is how I like it. This was worthy of Oscars besides for special effects and soundtrack you know the customary Oscars that Star Wars movies are thrown when they come out. This was well done all the way from storyline to the cast. Most returned from the "Attack of the Clones", and just picked it up from where the last movie left off. I have also noticed that there are little moral nuggets tucked away in these films. The one for here is humility. Not to be humiliated, but to be of a humble spirit. In the scene where Anikan and Obi-Wan were fighting in the volcanic world Obi-Wan reveals to Anikan that he was supposed to be the chosen one to restore the force to it's proper balance. Unfortunately, Anikan couldn't wait to have power, and use that power for the right reasons, so he joins the Dark Side, and uses his powers for evil now instead of good. It seems to me that we as humans have trouble with humility. I am worst of the lot. I can't stand still, and allow the Lord to direct my paths I have to forge it out myself, and believe it's the Lord's will. I feel that Anikan's downfall was the fact that he couldn't wait. It was shown in "Attack Of The Clones" that Anikan couldn't wait, and he couldn't control no matter how Obi-Wan tried to tell him to control his feelings, and tried to make him only think of his duty. That's all well and good, but you can't be blind to your passions realize you have them, and be honest about them, so you can learn to control them, and I feel that's where Obi-Wan failed Anikan. I can't help but wonder what it would've been had Obi-Wan tried to be more of a father to Anikan instead of a master. To me a father if he really tried to be a father would be more understanding of Anikan's passions, and the fact that he's a young man trying to show the world what he has to offer. After all they're both human, and Obi-Wan was young at one time when Kwi-Gon Jinn was master, so Obi-Wan should've tried to understand Anikan as he was a human being that had passions, and feelings that were all a part of being human, so instead of teaching Anikan about the Birds and the Bees Anikan is left to his own devices, and he woos Padme into marriage, and finally pregnancy where this begins the next generation of Star Wars. I know that I make sure I do all this with my son to where he's prepared for life when he gets older. Well anyway, this is still a terrific film, and should be recognized as one of the best. Rating: - The dark side!As a fan of Star Wars, I absolutely loved the movie. I couldn't wait for the DVD release and on Nov. 1, fans got their wish, although with different choices. What was interesting, unlike many blockbuster films that are released on DVD, Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith received special treatment. The three sets featured Obi Wan Kenobi, Mace Windhu and Annakin Skywalker. The hard-to-find second set features Darth Sidious, Darth Vader and Count Dooku. The third set featured three clone troopers. As for the DVD, it does not disappoint. The audio and video is stunning. The DVD comes with two discs. Disc one features the main movie (and the dancing Yoda easter egg). The second disc is jam packed with Star Wars Episode III goodness and features six never-before-seen deleted scenes with introductions by George Lucas and producer Rick McCallum. Also included on the second disc isa full-length documentary titled Within a Minute, a featurette on Annakin's transformation to Darth Vader in The Chosen One. A featurette on the training for the jedi battles in It's All For Real. Fifteen web documentaries of the making of SW:ROTS. The music video for John Williams A Hero Falls. Theatrical teasers and 15 TV spots. Theatrical posters and print campaigns from around the world. Never-before-seen production photo gallery. A playable demo with two entire levels for Star Wars Battlefront II for the XBOX and Star Wars Empire At War. I can't say how much I love this DVD. If you are a Star Wars fan, the third episode for the Star Wars series is a definite must-buy. Even for the casual movie fan who is not a big fan, it's just a very good movie. The DVD looks and sounds beautiful and more than enough special features to keep you busy. Definitely worth checking out!
