| revenge of the crap
like most people of my generation,i loved star wars .this is not star wars,it lacks the magic and excitment of the originals. i felt i should have been moved by this movie but felt nothing.remember the darth vader funeral scene in rotj ,that moved me and when lando blows up the death star,that had me on the edge of my seat.im grown up now and no a good movie when i see it,this film is very poor,rushed,bad acting,sulky kevin the teenager hayden having his temper tantrums,no large scale battle scenes,to many lightsaber battles, that they have no dramatic effect,ewan mcregor smirking all the way through the movie.what really ruined the whole movie was one scene at the end when anakin has become vader and he finds out padme has gone to her mothers with his kids and shouts noooooooooooooooo. vader was an icon and now they have turned him into this sad pathetic wimp. the originals were the defining movies of my generation,these films were made of the back of those and lack any real film magic.the worst thing is can i watch the originals without thinking about this pile of crap.lucas i now beleive is devoid of any of the talent he once had.even my 7 yr old son didnt like it he prefers harry potter.beware,donate your money to charity instead of putting into lucascorp,rent it on dvd in a few months. |
