I also feel sad that the whole thing is over now...perhaps Lucas' kid will make the pre-prequel movies or se-sequel movies:)!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014106.post-1116532163029777502005-05-19T12:49:00.000-07:002005-05-19T12:49:00.000-07:00I loved your review and shared your sentiments pre...I loved your review and shared your sentiments precisely. Like you, I too was weary going into last night's midnight showing. But the film did not dissapoint and the roller coaster ride that begins after the opening fanfare does not relent until the closing credits. Even the arguably slower moments developed key components to the story; in particular the Anakin-Padme and Anakin-Palpatine relationships. Suprisingly what I did find missing (or perhaps I missed it while my jaws were on the floor) was the poor performances on the part of BOTH Christensen and Portman that had rendered Lucas' last offering less than palpatable (okay, downright avoidable). Even the dialogue seemed less clunky and stilted. The CGI was seemless and did not overwhelm me the way it did in both The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones. I think the film's most critical moment was Anakin's full embrace of the darkside. My initial reaction (while viewing the film) was that it was rushed and drastic. But having mulled over it I think it fits well into the overall story arc of the entire saga especially in light of some of the key scenes of Return of the Jedi. I will leave it at that inn case there are some who have not yet seen the film!<BR/><BR/>Thank you again Zaki for your astute observations and review.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014106.post-1116531260079212342005-05-19T12:34:00.000-07:002005-05-19T12:34:00.000-07:00Nice review.

I love your line, <BR/>"there are several moments where you find yourself actually, physically uncomfortable…and not in a “When will this Pod Race end?” kind of way." :)<BR/>I'm sooo looking forward to my first view, tommorow night.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
