I loved the movie. It was big and loud, had tragedy and lots of fighting. Very epic, damn the reviewers.

I was just glad that it was Ewen McGregor who had the lines that had to be delivered best. At the end, when he was yelling at Anakin "You were like my brother!!!"

It broke my heart for ObiWan. Very sad.

The movie was very operatic. And the music.

Did I say I liked the movie?

I agree. I loved this movie.

No one goes to Star Wars films expecting high art, and if they do, they deserve our pity and derision.

It was a big, goofy, loud epic filled with explosions, robots, sword fights and wookies. Considering what passes for so-called deep meaningful films these days, I'd take the comic book simplicity of Star Wars anyday.

I actually found the line, "You were like my brother!" very poignant, and it was delivered well by Ewan McGregor.

As my husband and I were leaving the theater, I cracked him up by saying, "FINALLY! A star wars movie with a happy ending. The dirty hippie peaceniks all die, and the grown ups take over..."

Again, I'm probably one of the few who actually sided with the Sith. I thought it was as good as Empire, which for me is saying a lot. Empire was the best of the original trilogy.

I agree. I came home and watched the DVD of A New Hope right after seeing Episode 3 and this added a whole new dimension to Obi Wan telling Luke about his father and the fight between the old Obi Wan and Darth Vader.
