Catch this you must. Not because it is the best movie around (well, I think it is at least for this period of time), but because everybody’s talking about it.

You know the start. You know the ending. Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) wants to save his wife Amidala (Natalie Portman) from dying at childbirth. Coaxed by Chancellor Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid) to join the dark side, Anakin becomes Darth Vader eventually. The movie ends with a climatic light saber fight with Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor). (This is the first time we see 2 light sabers of the same colour meet.)

Die hard Star Wars fan will enjoy this movie spectacle. Technically, magic it is. Acting wise, only 2 make the mark – Kenobi and Yoda (Oh my, human he isn’t.) Expectations it failed to lived up with, but it’s good enough. Let’s not be over critical over Christensen’s 2 facial expressions (angry and angrier) or Portman’s 4 (sad, forlorn, pain then mati)

Spanning 28 years and 6 movies – The Star Wars is really a phenomenal. For fans who still got their hearts left at Empire of The Sun, there’s only one thing I can tell you. Welcome to the Digital Age.
