Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
George Lucas 2005 USA
A change in balance of the Force takes place amidst war: Anakin is led astray of the Jedi way, and the Dark Lord wages war on all of the Jedi council.
Both exhilarating and exasperating; satisfactory given the disappointment of its two predecessors, but there seems a vain strivance to please the hardcore fans with over-the-top theatrics, such as Yoda's inverted syntax and an unnecessary cameo from Chewbacca. It seems to dwell on its own excess, as if more is better. But it's still upstaged by the originals.
