Email this page to a friend   Critics Reviews Average Grade:   B+ Source Brief Review Grade* Atlanta Journal-Constitution Eleanor Ringel Gillespie "Bluntly put, Sith's the best Star Wars movie since the best of them all, 1980's The Empire Strikes Back." more... A- Boston Globe Ty Burr "...often awkward but nonetheless terrifically compelling high-stakes human drama." more... A- Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert "...a return to the classic space opera style that launched the series." more... A- Chicago Tribune Michael Wilmington "...exhilarating." more... A   E! Online "Restore your faith in the Force, this will." more... B+ Entertainment Weekly Owen Gleiberman "The trouble with Revenge of the Sith is that we're never really shown what we're told about endlessly: Anakin succumbing to the temptations of power." more... B- filmcritic.com Christopher Null "...Episode III is easily the best of the prequels and it's considerably better than the bloated and nonsensical Attack of the Clones." more... B+ Hollywood Reporter Kirk Honeycutt "A rousing finale for the Star Wars saga that smoothly brings us back to where it all began." more... A- New York Post "...true believers probably won't complain." more... B   New York Times A.O. Scott "...it's better than (the original) Star Wars." more... A   ReelViews James Berardinelli "It's a rousing and tragic sendoff to a beloved franchise, and the best installment in the Star Wars series since 1980's The Empire Strikes Back." more... A- Rolling Stone Peter Travers "In this heretic's opinion, Sith is a stiff, brought down by that special knack Lucas has of turning flesh-and-blood actors into cardboard cutouts." more... C   San Francisco Chronicle Mick LaSalle "The picture is laden with plot and difficult to follow, even for someone who has seen every Star Wars installment." more... C+ Seattle Post-Intelligencer William Arnold "In sum, Revenge of the Sith is darn good, easily the best of the prequels, and perhaps even a rival to The Empire Strikes Back..." more... A   USA Today Claudia Puig "It's the darkest of the six-film opus, but it just may be the best of the lot." more... A- * Yahoo! Movies converts each critic's published rating into a letter grade.
