Advantages: Some hugely effective underscore cues that bring a lot of dramatic gravitas the music needs
Disadvantages: As a final Star Wars score by Williams it misses it's mark in the end

...INTRODUCTION So the Star Wars saga is finally over. With the late arrival of Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, George Lucas' cartoonish sci-fi fantasy has reached its dreaded and most dark and desperate climax as Anakin Skywalker finally succumbs to the Dark Side and becomes the Sith Lord Darth Vader. After The Phantom Menace failed to make the impression on the general public than was hoped, the prequels have been received with more of a feeling of "let's wait and see". Whereas the original trilogy of 1977-1983 was received with great excitement, the prequels have been sorely lacking in the ingredients that made the originals so gripping, namely more interesting characters, better structured stories, more authentic-looking space battles than those CGI-things we have today, and situations that kept you on the edge of your seat...

Advantages: John Williams' score, great performance by the LSO
Disadvantages: Tracks don't follow the film's action

...to a specific movie; The Forest Battle from Return of the Jedi and Landspeeder Search from A New Hope never recurred in any other Star Wars film. On the other hand, The Imperial March (Darth Vader's Theme), Yoda's Theme from The Empire Strikes Back, and The Emperor's Theme are quoted in all the subsequent Episodes in various guises, since those three characters are major players in both the Prequel and Classic Star Wars trilogies. Because Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith's narrative deals with Anakin Skywalker's tragic transformation into the evil Darth Vader and the rise of the Galactic Empire, Williams' score blends music from The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones with such familiar themes from A New Hope as Luke's Theme and Princess Leia's Theme. And intertwined with the familiar motifs are new cues such as the signature Battle... Read review

Advantages: complex combo moves, decent graphics for ps2, enjoyable, large range of characters to choose from
Disadvantages: some levels are too short

...Probably the best star wars game made - it beats the lego ones on the PS2 by miles! Once you star playing this game you won't be able to stop i can garantee it. Brilliant game with a large range of different characters to choose from, from General Grevis to Obi Wan Kenobi. The game play isn't as straight forward as you would expect with a sword fight themed game, there are many combo moves that can be done which make the game even more like the film. There are also small snippets of the film in some of the levels after you complete them. IF you choose not to take part in the missions, then there is always the multi player mode to play with your friends which is also very addictive! The only bad thing i can think of is that some of the levels are too short and way too easy, but the levels later on in the game deffinately make up... Read review
