[General Phoenix]

I just got back from seeing it, and I thought it was easily the best of the prequels.

There are a few parts (very few) that seemed a bit corny, but overall, it's the darkest of the films - it has to be, when you consider all the horrible things that have to happen in it.

And most importantly, it does a pretty good job of tying into episodes 4 thru 6.

Script-wise, there was a lot of dialog that I would have changed, but I have to say it was still a damned good flick.
