"Break me a fucking give" indeed, Yoda
"Sith. What kind of a word is that? Sith. It sounds to me like the noise that emerges when you block one nostril and blow through the other, but to George Lucas it is a name that trumpets evil."
Thus begins the funniest and most accurate review about not only Star Wars Episode III, but that I can remember reading about any film. Very much worth a read.
As for my own take, I'd say that Revenge of the Sith was the best movie Lucas has made since Empire,* which admittedly isn't saying that much. The brother has got to learn when to say when with the CGI. I suppose that's what you do when your dialog is weak and your story can't possibly live up to the 30-year imaginations of the light-saber swinging public, but still, just because you can render 8 bazillion ships on screen at once doesn't mean that you should.
All that said, you should go see the film, if for no other reason than that you'll be able to snicker knowingly at the barbs in the review linked above. May the force be with you.
*Lucas didn't direct Empire, which might be why it was actually compelling.
