It was a good end too. All the big plot points were hit, as Dave said; and he is right, don't think you know the whole story without seeing, or at least having someone detail the major points of this movie. Lucas actually had me wishing Anakin wasn't so dead set on becoming a Sith, and Obi Wan developed more into the character who he will eventually be. Most of the other characters were good; JarJar was mercifully silent, Bail Organa was well acted, if a bit under-used, and Yoda has many character building scenes. Some of the characters could have definitely used more screen time, mainly some of the characters from the originals who had what amounts to cameos in this one. Padme and her sceens could have been cut down considerably, I don't care if Natalie Portman is "hot" or whatever. The woman simply cannot act or she was not given lines that she felt were believable, though I think it to be a bit of both. On the whole though, I will most likely go see this again in the theater, and will most likely pick up the other earlier ones. Just for kicks and giggles.
Both this and the post below will be moved into our section for reviews this weekend.
