All those "Star Wars" geeks, who've been waiting for weeks outside movie theaters with their Yoda sleeping bags and their homemade lightsabers, finally have a film that's worthy of their perseverance.
| REVENGE OF THE SITH |
 Director: George Lucas Cast: Hayden Christensen, Natalie Portman, Ewan McGregor, Christopher Lee, Ian McDiarmid Rating: PG-13 for sci-fi violence and some intense images Running time: 142 minutes |
The Force is strong with "Episode III — Revenge of the Sith," the sixth and final piece in George Lucas' galactic saga, which represents a welcome return to the ideas and the spirit that made his original "Star Wars" a pop-culture juggernaut 28 years ago.
