    I liked this review, but it wasn't as good as TPM or AOTC reviews. I expected him to say a little more about the Palpatine/Yoda duel. All in all, three outstanding reviews though.

    Mainly just a lot of nitpicks in what is essentially a half-decent movie so overall the review was a big drop on those of ep1 and ep2 - mainly for lack of material.

    However, it was right on the money about 2-shot scenes of actors walking/sitting being totally flat and essentially being the ruination of the movies. Ever since TPM the 'acting' scenes have always beeing something I always thought felt was 'wrong' but couldn't quite put my finger on precisely why. Up to now I'd just been putting it down to the crappy looking backdrops and the feeling that they didn't match the action scenes that played before/after them, but in reality it's the way the shots themselves are blocked and shot with actors for the most part shot full-body with practically no movement.

    It really is a fundamental flaw that runs right thru the prequels.

    Whatever about the scenes, the lines he actors were given were pretty bad, flat and unimaginative,i cringe everytime i hear "my powers have doubled since the last time we met".
