Re: Revenge of the Sith - A Review/Opinion

kaneda, neon: I have to say, I was not entertained by 'Sith'. I found parts of it unbearably tedious. I was munching popcorn and wondering what to do about dinner during the much-hyped opening action scene. (But I admit, it took me a little longer to realise I was watching not just a mediocre film, but a really bad one. Up until Padme, or rather the grotesque sketch of her that Lucas used instead, appeared.)

There was no tension to it. The same held for the Grievous/Obi-Wan chase scene, though the actual fighting was decent, and many of the other action sequences, which are supposed to be the heart of the film.

knivesout: love that review. So right in so many ways.

I genuinely think that this is one of those films whose critical reputation will decline. The more you watch it the more you'll see the problems, until it will be impossible to believe that people actually gave this good reviews.
