Episode III review

I saw this movie tuesday at midnight, as part of a sneak peak for people who work at the movie theater(gf works there). This movie is incredibly, badass. The entire movie is pretty emotional and action packed as the beginning starts out with a space battle going on. Throughout the movie you progressively see Anakin Skywalker get evil, until the last 45 minutes he becomes more evil than I ever anticipated, even knowing he becomes Darth Vadar. Basically the whole movie is filled with darkness, evil, death, and as the title implies, the sith revenge happens, and ends with little hope for any jedi and the republic.

Overall rating out of 10.... definitely a 9.5....
I'm not really a biased hardcore starwars aficionado either, I just enjoy the movies.

the script needed a woman's touch... to add more depth to the characters and love story... but overall it was badass. its the classic battle between good and evil...

Yah, I agree the script wasn't very good between some characters, espeically Anakin and Queen Amidala in the beginning and when there on the balcony. But I thought the rest of it was good.

Anakin and Padme can't act together.
They both sound like grade 8 drama students attempting to act sincere when talking to each other.

In the beginning of the movie I got a bit worried, because it was so comical... With R2D2 trying to hide from the guards, with that robotic Sith (forgot his name) sneaking around, coughing, looking like a crackbum. It got better later on though. And yeah, Anakins evil was scary, especially when he goes to the temple and finds the kids... Damn..

overall good, but THE DIALOGUES SUCKED!!(reference to "you broke my heart , Anakin" or NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!). Its not shakespeare its fuckin starwars! Good special effects, a little too humorous at times, good plot for sure. Good intense atmosphere throughout the movie, therefore worth seeing for sure!

^What the hell are you talking about, not Shakespeare? Star Wars can have good lines... Remember Empire?

"I love you!"

" I know."

That was absolutely classic, and it took 5 WORDS. There are plenty of good lines in 4-6 and not many in 1-3 or 3 alone.

I thought it made up for episodes 1 and 2 but still could have been much better. the end was far to rushed and the begining was to drawn out, at least thats my opinon.

so, anakin turned to the dark side out of belief he could save that chick, but she died BECAUSE he turned to the dark side. how the fuck does that one work...

yeah the dialog was ehhh but the fights made up for it. and its better than LOTR which is just hard to follow. harry potter has better dialog that either. it makes sence and is easy to follow. hahaha. my friend carter hates me for saying that. but seriously LOTR is too long to pay 100% attention to. and star wars isnt supposed to be complex like that. i mean, its got wookies and shit.

I just experienced it today and thought it was amazing.

No one likes the comic relief in the first 45 minutes, but when you compare that to the original 3 its nothing. Throughout IV-VI there is way more comic relief from Han Solo than all together in I-III.

Anakin having his helmet put on was probably the most epic moment of this decade too.

^ shushh you, I also liked how they made the interior of the ship all ghetto like the origionals, same with vaders armor, I'm asctually supprised Mr. Lucas did that instead of spending another million on making them look rad.

looking back at the 3 new movies, George Lucas should have just let the origional ones stand.

i personally also like the puppets and models a LOT better to be honest. i hate the fakeness of computer animation when it's to that extent. given some stuff is a lot better when computers are used.. but it sucks when some of the less complicated things are over animated and just look stupid. for example, those shiny ass little cruiser ships, so lame and fake. i'd prefer a model any day. also, how did the whole universe go backwards with technology. all the droids and shit are so tech and so are the ships and weapons in 1-3 but in 4-6 it's these big slow easily killable things... there are too many plotholes from 1-3. arrrrrg. still star wars weeee. i'm a jedi. weeeee.

^exactly. all the new ones do is show off george lucas' special effects company, they have no fucking substance or personality. seriously, does the whole goddamn movie have to be made on a blue screen? the characters sucked, the dialogue sucked, and the plots sucked. the first trilogy are some of my favorite movies ever but these are just terrible. seriously, i never gave a shit about any of the characters, none of them had any likability. and george lucas cannot direct. how he could take a good actress like natalie portman and make her look so terrible is beyond me. there were so many lines where i just laughed out loud because they were so dumb and cheesy. the last 30 or so minutes were much better than anything else in the new trilogy.

I thought it was pretty good. Except the scene where Anakin and Obie one are floating over the lava on those metal things, the graphics with the lava and steel crashing everywhere was just absolutely terrible.

another thing that's unbelievable, as my dad was explaining to me, is how each ship/vehicle is so damn weak. i mean, ships should hold the power to kill another ship, right? just like today, tanks are armed so that they can kill tanks. what good would a tank be if it only had a bb-gun be? so at times, the whole starwars story is kind of ridiculous and not very believable.

This movie was alot better than all of the other Star Wars. Very nicely done and yes the only part where I thought it was dumb was when Darth Vader was like NOoOOoOoo...instead of that, they should have had him try and kill the Emperor to make it action packed from start to finish.

and when i said that shit was not believable, i meant the story behind it, because the story was quite well done, and made sense. it had good flow to it.

it's the fact that anakin went to the dark side so readily, that he turned to the dark side to save padme, but padme DIED because he went to the dark side.. it just didn't make any sense. and the fact that he got so ruthless that he just slaughtered a bunch of children.. it was ludicrous. but, back to padme.. he sacrificed everything for her, then he ultimately killed her in the end, so i didn't buy that.

there were so many little flaws with the movie. i can deal with thing like, when they jump 50 feet in the air, or are falling at full speed and grab onto something to break the fall, even though you'd expect their arms to rip off. but i don't get things like how when the windows break on the ships, and the human beings just blow around like it's wind.. that CAN'T happen! there's no fuckin air in space! they'd explode instantaneously if they were exposed to that sort of vaccuum effect (not to mention the average temperature in space is 2 degrees KELVIN = -271C). and the ship fight at the beginning was hokey and lame. i mean, i can't predict the future or anything, but i know that if there are big ass starcruisers like that, i think they'll be armed with more than a bb-gun.

there were just too many little things with the movie that drove me nuts. especially fuckin yoda when he's stumbling around on his cane, then takes out his lightsaber and starts bouncing around the room like a little pinball, fighting the emperor. how ridiculous.

what i did like, though, was the end lightsaber fight at the end, and where anakin has the darth vader kit put on him. he disappears beneath the mask, and the dark lord is born. that was awesome.

that's my opinion, if you don't like it.. terrific

good day, sir.
