Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith

5/10

Truly the best of the bad _Star Wars_ movies, _Revenge of the Sith_ doesn't make a whole lot of sense, both when viewed as self-contained, and when seen as a part of the _Star Wars_ whole, but at least Lucas bothered to put a whole movie in here. _Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._

At last we get some semblance of the original trilogy with this action adventure iteration that is much darker and character-driven. Hayden Christensen's "Anakin" is coming to realise what really will turn him into the ultimate evil "Darth Vader" under the guise of his new mentor "Palpatine" (a magnificently, if theatrical, Ian McDiarmid). It's end to end action; the cast have thrown off their rom...
