“Star Wars: Revenge of The Sith” tells of the last days of Anakin Skywalker, the man who would become Darth Vader. The Clone Wars have been going on for years, and the Jedi battle with the Separatists, lead by the mysterious Darth Sidious and his second-in-command, General Grievous. Chancellor Palpatine, leader of the Intergalactic Senate, has been kidnapped, and it is up to the Jedi to rescue him and restore peace to the universe. Anakin has become friendly with the Chancellor, who many believe to be corrupt, much to the dismay of the Jedi Council. Later, they decide to use this friendship to their advantage, asking the young Knight to spy on Palpatine. In the meantime, Anakin's wife, Padme (the former Queen Amidala) has found out that she is pregnant. While this should be great news, there are problems, as Anakin is plagued by visions of her dying during childbirth. The chancellor informs him, during one of their talks, that he has incredible powers, even hinting that he can prevent death. As the battle rages on, Anakin must decide where his loyalties lie and how far he will go to save the woman he loves.
