It IS good...
Lileks' review, that is.
Gotta agree with him on the Annakin/Darth Vader transformation. Annakin is still too much the kid, right up to the moment of truth, as it were.
And the years that elapse between each film release allows one to forget just how stilted they can be. Overall, though Revenge is monumental in some ways, it isn't my favorite Star Wars. I think ep 2 had better pacing.
