PHM
I personally don't get people that claim Episodes I and II don't provide enough details of Anakin's descent into darkness, and that III 'rushes' his ultimate fall.
Episode I is critical to show his traumatic separation from his mom and the loss of his ideal teacher, which leaves him very vulnerable to his fears. Episode II shows him losing his mother, blaming himself for it, and vowing to become powerful enough to never, EVER again lose someone he loves. At any cost.
This directly feeds into his manic anxiety over the dreams in Episode III, which is exploited by Palpatine. And on top of that, he's been through three years of constant war. I think the accumulation of these factors all coming to a head in III is pretty believable.
Sometimes it just takes one absolutely TERRIBLE week to make a person's fragile mind finally snap.
