Goofs:
Continuity: When Obi-wan and Anakin enter the elevator on the Trade Federation flagship, they kill several battle droids. In every other take shot in the same elevator, there are no parts left on the floor. The part of the ceiling that Anakin cuts out also disappears. Also, when the elevators stops the first time, a Battle Droid's hand can be seen standing in the left corner, however, when the shot changes, it disappears and then re-appears again in a shot near the end of the sequence. more

A movie to bring balance to the two Trilogies..., 4 May 2005
10/10
Author: Hyrum Romrell (hyrumnephi@hotmail.com) from Salt Lake City

I personally am more of a fan of the original trilogy than what I have been of the prequels. Although I did enjoy TPM, and AOTC, they definitely were not as well done as A New Hope or Empire. I think the general criticisms of the first two prequels was lack of good story, and poor acting. First I would like to say that the acting is much better in Revenge of the Sith than the first two prequels, but what truly stood out in this movie was the story. It was delivered perfectly, for the first time since Empire, Lucas connected emotionally with his audience. The last hour of the movie was especially powerful. Although probably not planned, I think this movie will be the bridge that brings the old star wars sheep back into the fold. Just as Anakin eventually brings balance to the force, Revenge of the Sith will bring balance back to the Star Wars Universe. And judging by the reaction of the test audience I was part of, everyone I was with feels the same way, no one left their seat for at least a couple minutes after the movie ended.
