...maximum effect, this should be seen on a gigantic movie screen--the visual scope is that grand, the details that rich. But George Lucas' dark and honorable wrap-up to his space odyssey will look just fine on the 45-in. screen in your home-entertainment center. The DVD has a starship-load of extras to answer every question a viewer could have, except How come Padmé dies here, when in the original Star Wars trilogy Princess Leia remembers her mother...

...alienation of getting infected. Drawn in a detailed, high-contrast black and white style where you can count every nascent hair on a teenage lip, Burns' images will have your skin crawling even as you marvel at their beauty. Masterfully using the medium's ability to carry both visual and literary metaphor, and mixing in the kicks of a top-notch exploitation yarn, Burns' Black Hole will suck you in.

Some of the most visually inventive comics ever created, McCay's strips would put Nemo through diamond palaces, into the mouths of dragons, and as a giant who climbs among the New York skyscrapers, pre King Kong. Though collected in various editions over the years, this one is the finest, reprinting the best...

...East fairy tale, about the geisha Cinderella (Zhang Ziyi), her wicked stepsister (Gong Li), her fairy godmother (Michelle Yeoh) and the faraway prince (Ken Watanabe) she dreams of, is a delicate, robust and emotionally satisfying throwback to the sweeping romances Hollywood once specialized in and now mostly ignores. Its visual splendor never obscures the furtive, assertive heart beating under the kimono. I loved seeing most of my favorite Chinese actresses in one movie (even if they were turning Japanese), and watching Gong Li stride away with her first big English-language picture. As the vindictive Hatsumomo, the Gongster flashes...

...prequel trilogy’s near-total reliance on computer-generated effects. Just stare at the crowd scenes. The space battles. The sky-traffic lanes on Coruscant. Never, ever, has there been a set of movies better at completely inventing a visual universe and sticking to it at all costs. It’s ridiculous. I usually cry, just because of how good the Jedi Temple looks...
