As a Star Wars prequel defender, it’s my job to recommend you watch (or rewatch) Episode III – Revenge of the Sith today, a day known to fans as “Revenge of the 6th” — and I take that job very seriously. Revenge of the Sith is, in my opinion, the best of the prequels (and dare I say one of the best Star Wars movies, period?) that actually does get better on rewatch. It’s actually aged quite well! Episode III wraps up the prequel trilogy that detailed the tragedy of Anakin Skywalker, that began with an optimistic podracing child in Episode I and ended with the Chosen One’s downfall and transformation into Darth Vader.
