Some thoughts and reactions to "Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith" that will NOT spoil anything for anyone, after watching it last night:

--The film serves its purpose very well as the bridge and final prequel leading up to Episode IV, the original "Star Wars." When you re-watch either Episodes I and II again or the original trilogy after seeing Episode III, a lot more plotlines and characters will make more sense in the big picture as a six-part series.

--The movie's title "Revenge of the Sith" says it all, hinting at what to expect.

--The flow of the story, special effects, character development and acting are much stronger in Episode III when compared to Episodes I and II--not that there was anything wrong with the previous two films, which I loved.

--If you have kids, then you may want to watch this PG-13 film first to see if you want to take your kids. If you do take your kids, I hope good parenting means will you discuss good vs. evil, right vs. wrong, and reality vs. fantasy with them after watching it together. This is not necessarily a bad film for kids, it's just that Episode III is much darker than the other "Star Wars" films and some kids might be disturbed by both what is seen or inferred at certain parts. Plotwise, however, the darkness of some scenes does serve a purpose for the entire fim series.

--As always, the special effects, battle scenes and light-saber fights are top notch.

--I would and will see this film over and over at the theater--where it's meant to be watched on the big screen.
