Journal Chacham's Journal: Review: Star Wars 6 (was bad) (No real spoilers) 5
So, i saw Star Wars, the sixth movie, or is that the sith movie....
Anyway, the story was bad, the acting was bad, the fights were bad, the lines were bad. Only Jonathan Frakes could have made it worse.
As for tieing up the story, well, is sort of does, though in the confusing full of plot holes way the prequels do.
To make specific points.
Padamay's lines were extremely shallow.
Anakin's turn was cheesy at best.
Twice in the movie two scenes happening in different places were synced, and the effect was too forced to have any affect.
Anything good about the movie? Well, Yoda's demeanor as he just did what he needed to do (guards by emporer's door) was perfect. Force Lightning was used well. The emporer's slip into using the "evil" voice was nice, such as "do it".
In summary, there is no point in watching this movie other than seeing the full set of movies.

I hate Star Wars. After 20 years Lucas hadn't taken the time to write a proper story?!?

BTW... Before I went to the movie I rented the PS2 game, which sucked bigtime.

What *should have* been done was to make the turn much more slowly, and make it not seem like a turn. When the the "whole picture must be viewed" idea wa mentioned, i thought it was a good point, but it was shortl
