Synopsis

Years after the onset of the Clone Wars, the noble Jedi Knights lead a massive clone army into a galaxy-wide battle against the Separatists. When the sinister Sith unveil a thousand-year-old plot to rule the galaxy, the Republic crumbles and from its ashes rises the evil Galactic Empire. Jedi hero Anakin Skywalker is seduced by the dark side of the Force to become the Emperor's new apprentice -- Darth Vader. The Jedi are decimated, as Obi-Wan Kenobi and Jedi Master Yoda are forced into hiding. The only hope for the galaxy are Anakin's own offspring -- the twin children born in secrecy who will grow up to become heroes.

    • Supreme Chancellor: I need your help, son.
    • Anakin Skywalker: What do you mean?

The final episode of George Lucas' cinematic epic Star Wars ends the six-movie series on such a high note that one feels like yelling out, Rewind! Yes, rewind through more than 13 hours of bravery, treachery, new worlds, odd creatures and human frailty.

All the Star Wars movies will continue to entertain us for many years to come. They were grand fun, and this last one's a corker.
