Amazon.co.uk Review
This CD + DVD package comes with a Special Edition Amazon.co.uk Exclusive Slipcase. John Williams’ lovely and moving score for the sixth Star Wars film brings thirty years of collaborating on George Lucas’ beyond-popular intergalactic franchise to a close. (Is this really the end of Star Wars? Can’t Lucas and Williams work together on a prequel to these prequels? Let us hope so, and that Jar Jar Binks is nowhere near it.) As this music accompanies the most exciting Star Wars film in many a moon, the soundtrack itself is more fun, more evil, more nasty and bumpy. Many of the heroic, anthemic themes woven throughout Episode Three: Revenge of the Sith will necessarily be familiar to any fan of the series, from the "Imperial March" to the main theme. It’s remarkable how stirring the latter can be, no matter how many times you’ve heard it--even for those who do not have all their money invested in S.W. memorabilia. There is a lot of new music here, and the lush, extensive range of both Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra is on display, most notably in the menacing, percolating "General Grievous" and the rousing "New Hope" end theme. --Mike McGonigal

Album Description
This CD + DVD package comes with a Special Edition Amazon.co.uk Exclusive Slipcase. Since the first film in the Star Wars series was released in 1977, Star Wars has become the most popular film series in history. John Williams' soundtracks for the series have been--and will continue to be – one of the most important parts of the phenomenon. Star Wars: Episode III--Revenge of the Sith is the last instalment of the worldwide epic phenomena. The sixth album, newly composed and conducted by the five-time Oscar winner John Williams, is a celebration of one of the most artistic collaborations ever created. George Lucas understands the enormous impact that music has had on his films, and John Williams has been part of his enterprise since the very beginning.

The bonus DVD, Star Wars: A Musical Journey, will feature film excerpts and music from all six Star Wars soundtracks. Chronologically, it will take the viewer through the entire saga in 16 glorious movements. This is the first time that a bonus DVD has been offered with a Star Wars soundtrack.

Customer Reviews

JOHN WILLIAMS'S BEST!!
Along with The Lord Of The Rings, one of the finest OSTs available!
Definiteley John Williams's finest of the Star Wars Saga!
Favourite pieces: Anakin's Betrayal (Order 66), The Immolation Scene (Vader burns) & The Birth of the Twins and Padmé's Destiny (basically Padme's funeral & the Vader/Palpatine/Tarkin scene)
Dark & heavy, a fitting climax - very moving & emotional music.

The Bonus DVD is great too!

Fantastic
It would be fair to say that the Star Wars prequels, or at least the first two, have failed to live up to expectations. Thankfully the music scores have been a continual strength. Episode III finally delivered on it's promise to tie up loose ends and to finally reveal how Anakin Skywalker finally succumbed to the Dark Side of the Force. The soundtrack, beginning with the familiar Star Wars fanfare, also brings the musical journey to a satisfying finale. The Bonus DVD is a joy, the London Philharmonic Orchestra tell the story of the whole saga with a montage of clips and pieces of music taken from all six films. In fact, you would be probably better off watching this than the first two films. For the prices you can get it for; this is a must!

Please please please.. release the complete recordings!
The final film; the final soundtrack. The soundtrack to end all soundtracks - the film finished on a flourish, as I left the cinema, i thought this is will be the soundtrack to have, what with the entire 'battle of the heroes' and the music when Anakin saunters up the steps of the Jedi Temple to wipe them all out.

So imagine my dissapointment. Every other Star Wars soundtrack (except episode 2, which, frankly, is no big deal) has a complete recording (and I have them all!).. not this one. The tracks are music from some of the key moments.. but is missing big chunks and other themes, like Anakin's march into the Jedi Temple. 3-stars 'cos its Star Wars and should be punished for not providing the complete score, gone are the days when a Star Wars product should automatically get a 4 or 5. My faith is lacking.. disturbing.. George Lucas, end it with a complete score, please!
