first let me start off by saying that i am not a diehard star wars fan. however, i have seen all of the movies. my 6 yr old son wanted to see this after seeing the previews (who doesnt know much about star wars but LOVES action cartoons). i will say that there was a lot of action scenes from beginning to end. my 6 year old was entertained for about an hour and ten minutes. more for kids than adults though. something that did get on my nerves from the very first scene was the animation. and by that i mean when the characters would talk, their mouths did not match up to the words. it drove me nuts! LOL overall, i didnt feel like i had wasted my money because my son enjoyed more than half the movie and i didnt fall asleep :-)
