Review of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005) by Jacob L — 11 Mar 2017

After two let down prequels, we finally got a new Star Wars that at least came close to what a Star Wars film is supposed to be. Now to start off and I am going to get a lot of hate for this, I liked Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker! Now won't get me wrong most of his dialogue is complete and utter literary garbage which makes the character seem like a crybaby, however when Christensen has no dialogue and just uses his eyes and his facial expressions he does it very very well. Now, what else did I like?

1. I liked Ewan McGregor as Obi-wan and Ian McDiarmid continuing his role as The Emperor as these are the strongest performances in the film.

2. The drama is fantastic in this film combined with the excellent score by The Legendary John Williams.

Now, what are the faults? The first issue I have is the amount of CGI in the film. The original Star Wars were revolutionary in their effects, here everything you see is obviously fake, which I think is a little lazy. I also wasn't a big fan of Natalie Portman's character/performance, watch the film and see why. In conclusion, it's not a bad film, 3/5 stars.
