Just saw it yesterday. YAWN! I'll take the goofy rocking cockpit shots, bad acting, and exploding plastic models anyday over the crap that Lucas has put out the last few years. I had seriously thought about just waiting to rent it on DVD and I wish I had.
Lucas threw as many special effects at his audience as he could in order to make it worth their while. I agree it was better than the first two but that isn't saying much. A lump of $#!t is still a lump of $#!t no matter how much you dress it up.
The clincher for me was at the end of the movie when Sidius tells Vader that he was he himself was responsible for Padimay's death and he screams Noooooooooooo!!!!! Corny.
