I went to see it last night and to be honest i was disapointed The opening scene was spectacular to say the least, partly down to the big screen no doubt! There were some very good moments that make Star Wars such an event, but ultimalty the film seemed very rushed. Anakins change to the dark side almost seemed like an after thought ( i know it wasnt by the way!) and should have been dealt with in more depth. The massacre of all the Jedi also seemed rushed, what was George thinking? "Damn forgot to kill them all, ah well" As for the giant lizard riding

The film should have been a lot darker like The Empire Strikes Back, it should also have being atleast 3 hours in lenth.

I totally agree with the 12A rating though

 

Saw it earlier at the Coventry Showcase (and just managed to get home in time for the FA Cup final). I thought it was a fantastic film; the light sabre duels are excellent, and even though you know the overall story already, the way it all fitted into place was excellent.

BTW I understand there is a cameo by Lucas himself at the opera entrance scene, but I only read about this afterwards and I missed it at the time because there were some large bosoms also in shot.

 

Yes, he is stood outside high court with another blue alien!

 

I'm seeing it tomorrow ... not a fan - just enjoy a good film!
