Film Review - Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith (2005)

Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith is the last of the Star Wars films and after two movies, we finally get to see just how Anakin Skywalker became Darth Vader but before that we see Anakin and Obi Wan battling the vile General Grievous, Yoda on the Wookie home world with an appearance by a fan favorite and so on and so forth.


And now, I was very disappointed with this entry in the series, whilst the Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones were fun popcorn action adventure fare which unfortunately ran a little long, this one was a true failure, though some of the CG work that opens the film is good, this film really should have had a more mature tone like The Empire Strikes Back, which had a dark tone throughout whereas here director George Lucas puts in too much comedy and it waters down the tension in places.


2 and a half for Revenge of the Sith.
