One of Lucas' Greatest

Lucas finally learned something from his ridiculous failures of the first and second prequels he puked up - you can throw as much money, special effects, and hype at a movie as you want – a movie without good acting or a good script is still a bad movie. Considering how bad the first two prequels were, it is even more impressive that he could generate something of Revenge of the Sith's quality (which I actually rate higher than Return of the Jedi, and on par with A New Hope). This movie is surprisingly deep and dark. I found one of the most fascinating aspects of the Sith was the imperfections shown of the Jedi. Instead of the righteous warriors we had seen them as in the first 5 films, this film showed them as elitists, dogmatic, and even perhaps a bit arrogant. If you’re a fan of the Star Wars series, this movie is not to be missed. And if you got turned off on the prequels like I did, try to stomach watching the first two so you can treat yourself with this gem.
