I liked the film a lot. There were some parts that surprised me in how they played out, and the best part of all was (spoilers) watching Palpatine reveal himself and his powers, culminating in the scene with Mace Windu. I also really like the central paradox and conundrum in the plot involving Padme. It also ends short and sweet, and not dragged out long like the LOTR ROTK ending. Here is my criticism: the CGI Yoda, at times, was too CGI, Anakin who had just earlier seemed to have a conscience, was just too quickly willing to do everything the Emperor wants, killing even little children, and the one plot hole I was afraid of there being was indeed left unresolved: How Leia could remember her mother? In fact, it was the one thing people were talking about as we left the theater.
