This one gets 7/10 from me. I won't bother talking much about the film, cause it gets repetitive after reading everyone else's points, but here are things I most enjoyed: Most Enjoyed: Anakin's mental trips. You could just feel the anger building inside him, especially when his mother dies. The pain on his face, holding her in his arms and his explosion in the Tusken Raider massacre is immense. Best of all though, is his horrific description to Padme of the killings. That single moment has the best acting in the entire series, and is the most powerful moment. End battle. Loved it. How couldn't you? Yoda got a gasp from the audience, and a few giggles. Brilliant. It was also great to delve into the Jedi life some more, with journeys into the Jedi Temple - The library and schools etc. Makes their loss seem so much worse when we now look at the later three episodes. They had such a power. Overall, a good film. Popcorn fluff. MAJOR GRIPE: Really would have liked to have seen Anakin's massacre some more - Some powerful music and the immense hate on his face, flashing his sabre about would have made for something unseen in this series. A missed opportunity.
Although, Lucas may have scenes like this on a larger scale in the final episode and didn't want to burn the ideas out just yet (Jedi massacre, etc.) [This message has been edited by ak (edited 05-25-2002).]
