Review of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005) by Tjaw — 18 Nov 2018
While most fans call this movie the "good prequel", it's still just as much of a comical farce as the first two of them. The CGI may be a lot better here, but this film is still ruined by horrendous dialogue, headache-inducing action sequences, another terrible performance from Hayden Christiansen (and other characters, although his is still by far the worst) a manic, plot-hole-filled mess of a story that attempts to squeeze tons of failed character development into the film's second half, more worthless, unconvincing romance and tons of 2000s blockbuster movie clichés that are impossible to take seriously.
The fact that this movie has so many fans and defenders is downright tragic; maybe in 2005 it might have been a nice surprise because it's more visually interesting than the first two, but it's aged so extremely badly to the point of being inexcusable.
The prequels will forever be a complete abomination, among the worst movie trilogies in the history of film.
