Road to Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker - Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith Review





Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith is a 2005 epic space opera and the third and final movie in the Star Wars Prequel Trilogy. The movie is produced by Lucasfilm Ltd. and distributed 20th Century Fox. Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith was written and directed by George Lucas.



The story is it's been three years since the beginning of the Clone Wars. After what seems to grand accomplishment by finally defeating Count Dooku and successfully rescuing Chancellor Palpatine. However Anakin still feels like this war is far from over when his suspicions are raised within the Jedi Council, and all of his suspensions are pointing to Palpatine.







  • Negatives




I've got nothing to say. Let's move on.








  • Mix




Once again the acting for the most part is a mix bag. Hayden Christensen does actually have some good moments but yes at the same time he does have some bad reads.




Then we have the dialogue. For the most part it's fine. But then there are those...other moments, such as when Padme literally says Anakin is breaking her heart. No seriously she actually says "Anakin, your breaking my heart". Like I said some moments are good others are not.









  • Positives





One thing I've come to enjoy about Revenge of the Sith is Anakin's slow transformation into Darth Vader. Now yes I've had heard most say he has no reason but the films actually show he has his reason for turning to the dark side. But if you watch the film carefully they actually do tell you this.




Another thing you to enjoy from the movie is the very subtle touches the director puts into a couple of scenes. Like there was this one scene where Obi-Wan's in the light while Anakin's in the dark just before their big fight. Moments like that really should get a thumbs up.




Oh and since I bought up their big fight....oh my god was that an awesome scene. Seriously the scene of Anakin and Obi-Wan fighting is the highlight reel moment of the entire movie. I loved it! I could watch that fight scene on repeat over and over again.







Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith is definitely one of the best films in the prequel trilogy. Anakin has a great slow transformation, really nice subtle touches, and that fight between Anakin and Obi-Wan is amazing. The only grey areas is the acting and some of the dialogue.







My final rating is Good







Alright everybody that's going to do it for me. Come back on Thursday, May 23rd for my A Look Back at review for 1992's Aladdin. That review will be in celebration of the 2019 film with the same name. Until then enjoy the rest of your day.
