My verdict: it's still a terrible film. Not quite as bad as I or II, but it's still a cringe-inducing piece of crap with awful dialogue and bad acting (mostly courtesy of Hayden Christensen). Not to mention Lucas' over-reliance on CGI makes the film look way too cartoon-ish, and it really doesn't hold up very well. Ewan McGregor and Natalie Portman are both very good actors, and they do what they can with the dialogue. But in the end you just feel sorry for them. Personally I think TLJ is a far superior film in every way.

I was scrolling down the thread just for the chance to post this.
I watched most of it on Christmas, bad acting, unmotivated characters, just bad.
