Star Wars Episode III - Revenge of the Sith - Review
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...
EPISODE III
REVENGE OF THE SITH
The last film ever made of Star Wars...it ends with a bang!
Plot easy about a war, lies, dark side, bad choices, death, ...but interesting until the very end as here we see the birth of Darth Vader and the vanish of Anakin turned to the dark side: "After three years of fighting in the Clone Wars, Anakin Skywalker falls prey to the Sith Lord's lies and makes an enemy of the Jedi and those he loves, concluding his journey to the Dark Side."
In the film, Skywalker has a dream of her wife, Padme, dying while giving birth; he doesn't want that dream to come true as it happened with his mother in the Episode II so he seeks advice from everyone he knows until Palpatine gives him the words to join the Dark Side in order to save her life...and he does betraying the Jedis by killing all of them one by one.
SPOILERS!: Only two of them survive to this massacre (Obi-Wan and Yoda) and they do everything they can to win all of them but, at the end, they fail and must hide forever in the exile.
The main story is very simple, as I said, but very interesting as it has many twists you don't expect, watching here Anaking to turn into Darth Vader is amazing, you can clearly see his fear, his anger, his wish to have everything and, while in the Episode II the actor wasn't that sure, in this one he makes an excellent work playing greatly the character showing all the feelings.
Obi-Wan's betrayal by Anakin leaves him in a place where he doesn't want to be, he has to fight against his only padawan and his best friend, you can see the wish not to do it. And Master Yoda, at his best (I know it's a puppet generated by computers, ok?) does everything he can to put order after the betrayal of the empire against all the Jedis in the universe fightning against Darth Sidious aka. Palpatine who is scary as hell after his deformity when fighting lightsaber duel against Jedi Mace Windu (Samuel L. Jackson), it's quite a shame that he doesn't have more scenes...
The last fight of the movie is epic, Obi-Wan Kenobi versus Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader, it's a very long duel but amazing, it happens in different parts of a planet-like-hell. The first part of the film is very good as well when the two Jedis have a war in order to save Palpatime from Count Dooku...he only appears for a few minutes and only has four lines of dialogue! It's quite a shame...
This is a great ending for the new trilogy as it sets perfectly with the start of the old saga without loose ends. The birth of Luke and Leia also appear on the film at the very end and when they separate from different ways the children to Tattoine and Royalty. Also the first time Darth Vader appears is quite epic and the first screenshot of the first Death Star being made.

· What I liked most: Anakin's transformation to Darth Vader - The Clone Wars at its glory - The final fights between Yoda versus Lord Sith and Anakin versus Obi Wan, amazing!
· What I didn't like: Mace Windu, he's supposed to be one of the greatest Jedis yet still doesn't have a nice way to go out - Count Dooku 2 minute fight is too short...
