I think the decentfilms review was quite accurate, while the Kevin Smith review was rather pathetic as it was coarse and juvenile. The storyline of Sith was okay, but the unpersuasive acting and trite sreenplay made it land with a bit of a thud for me. The one person I found myself really believing was Obi Wan, particularly in his last dialogue with Anakin. I was also moved by the physical affliction suffered by Anakin towards the end. It was graphic, but I think it was necessary, and it worked pretty well for me. Also on the positive side, the imagination and creativity of the machines in the film are really impressive – and that is really where I think Lucas shines anyway.

In any event, I think you should see it in the theater and I think it is worth seeing despite the shortcomings.
