Honestly, was lucas trying? - Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith Reviews
Please, someone tell me that Episode III is a joke. From the opening scroll (War!...There are heroes on both sides...) to the final shot, the movie never stopped dissappointing.
I will try to address some of the most outstanding problems. (some minor spoilage below - read with caution)
1. Poor Dialogue
Lines like "Love can't save you, but my new Jedi Powers can!" and "It's time for me to use my ejector pod!" just kill me. I know I didn't copy them right on, but you get the gist of things.
2. Way Too Much CGI
Everything looked fake. Not even a cool kind of fake. Just fake. Sure the graphics were amazing, and people put a lot of effort in them but they didn't make the movie any better...they made it worse.
3. Lightsaber Battles
Remember when lightsaber battles were realistic, high tension battle sequences?
4. Short Scenes
I wonder how many scenes in this film were actually longer than thirty seconds. George Lucas was really trying to cater to the ADD crowd, this film moved way too fast to be enjoyable.
5. Anakin's Turn to the Dark Side
Way to easy. I won't even bother going into details.
6. Hardly a Plot
There is hardly any plot at all. Just some meaningless battle scenes intermingled with horrible dialogue between Anakin and Palpatine or Anakin and Padme.
My hat goes off to old George Lucas for a poor rip off of Othello (remember what he does to Padme at the end :-).
Paplatine = Iago
Anakin = Othello
Kenobi = Cassio
Padme = Desdemona
Think about it! The similarities are amazing!
