hamletsskull 's review for:
Revenge of the Sith
by Matthew Woodring Stover
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
Complicated
Loveable characters:
Yes
Diverse cast of characters:
Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
It’s one thing to watch the movie and have to work around George Lucas’ inability to write dialogue, another to watch a skilled novelist take a stab it and watch it as a trainwreck where everyone knows something is deeply wrong but cannot get this information to the other characters as the main antagonist drives the whole train off a cliff.
When people tell you this is one of the best movie novelizations of all time, hell even one of the best Star Wars books of all time, they aren’t kidding, it’s astonishing how much weight this greek tragedy of a movie is given when Stover writes about them.
There’s nothing that can be done to change it.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I will return to my blanket cocoon where I will be sobbing about Anakin Skywalker for the foreseeable future. (Not like I haven’t been doing that for the past 20 years)
