Review of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005) by William F — 03 Aug 2016

While it may still suffer from major problems, this film finally got close to feeling like a good Star Wars film. The darker ambiance is greatly appreciated, the visuals are still just as impressive, the action sequences are great, and the building up just makes it feel much more grander than it really is.

However in regards to the film's problems, they are separated into two majors aspects. The first being the story: while it is much more intriguing than before, it still does suffer from feeling rushed.

It fails to take its time in presenting itself and ends up with occasional fantastic moments, but mostly average moments too. The second problematic aspect is the characters: one again, the two main focused actors aren't that good (they're improved in comparison to "Attack of the Clones", but still not that good), but on the other hand the rest of cast is still excellent.

Much better than its two predecessors, and while still suffering from similar problems, this film surprisingly gets the closest its ever gotten to a good Star Wars film side the original trilogy. I'd recommend it, just lower your expectations a tad.
