Least action in a star wars movie but entertaining - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones Reviews

First of all we all know that george lucas cannot write dialog, but we should forgive him because he makes up for that with awsome storylines. This film takes place ten years after the phantom menice. Anakin is obi's 19-year-old apprentice, and Padma is a senator. "There is an unrest in the galactic senate. Several thousand solar systems have declared their intentions to leave the republic. This seperatist movement, under the mysterious leadership of Count Duku, has made difficult for the limited number of jedi knights to mantain peace and order in the galaxy. Senator Amadala, the former Queen of Namboo, is returning to the galactic senate to vote on the critical issue of creating an army of the republic to assist the overwhelmed jedi." That is the opening writing for this outstanding love story.

Not the best of the saga but still great - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones Reviews

Attack of the Clones had everything that any Star Wars fan could ever want. It was full of intense battle scenes and had an excellent plot. We finally get to see Yoda show why he's the most powerful Jedi. The acting wasn't superb, but it still was over par. Episode II set up III extremely well, and I can't wait for Episode III.

Star wars: episode ii - attack of the clones - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones Reviews

Fans will be relieved to know that Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones improves upon its predecessor in almost every imaginable way. What that film lacked was a compelling plot but even that could be forgiven if Lucas had injected the proceedings with a palpable sense of suspense. It also lacked the personality and character of the first generation of stars and seemed strangely soulless, more like a show reel for Lucas' special effects company than an emotionally involving movie. Here Lucas has remembered some of the things that made the first Star Wars sing. He has realised that spectacle is a poor substitute for story and that movie characters have some other purpose than modelling for the merchandising. In this instalment of the Star Wars legend, everything has been pumped up an extra notch. Instead of a dull tale about trade wars, we have political intrigue aplenty with assassination attempts, secret armies and covert coalitions. Instead of stilted clothes ponies posing as people, we have real characters who have remembered how to joke and smile and occasionally even cry. Above all else, we have romance as Lucas makes a clever play for the audience of teenage girls as well as guys by making an epic with emotion. In this chapter, newcomer Hayden Christensen plays the pivotal role of Anakin Skywalker, now grown up and an apprentice Jedi Knight with ideas far beyond his station. He is called upon to protect Padme Amadala, the princess turned senator while Obi Wan Kenobi investigates rumours of a secret clone army that is being developed on a mysterious planet. As Skywalker and eventually Darth Vader, Christensen is called upon to go deeper than any other actor in the series. He must make his transition from techno-brat to adolescent freedom-fighter plausible and he also has to lay the groundwork so he can make a believable descent into the dark side. He carries it off particularly well and suggests a range that will soon establish him as something more than the dude who plays Darth Vader in disguise. Similarly, Natalie Portman, who was left with nothing much to work with last time except an extravagant line of headdress, radiates here and manages to convey a playful sense of power as well as a certain vulnerability. The scenes between her and Hayden are surprisingly effective. And Ewan McGregor, who looked so uncomfortable consorting with green screens and imaginary characters as a young Obi Wan Kenobi, now appears to be having a fabulous time pretending to be Alec Guinness. There are plenty of pay-offs for long-term fans with the introduction of a baby Boba Fett, the continuing involvement of R2D2 and C3PO and a suggestion that Yoda can kick butt along with all the other Jedi. Also the infamous Jar-Jar Binks, who was all but burnt in effigy by frustrated fans last time around, returns but in a noticeably reduced role. Whatever doubts you may have had about the future of the series will leave you at the first sign of a light sabre and if anything, the film tries a little too hard to please with one too many video game-inspired thrill rides through the Skywalker Ranch. Still, Lucas has created his most exhilarating action sequences, yet with unbelievably rich chase and battle scenes that surpass anything the series has yet delivered. What's more, he has done more to expand the Star Wars universe literally with eye-popping new planets to visit and figuratively with an ear for characters as well as an eye for computer-enhanced carnage. Whatever transpires in this galaxy far, far away, it's safe to say that Lucas has once again tapped into both the excitement and spirituality of the first films and is once again feeling the force.

Star wars episode 2 - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones Reviews

Not the best, not the worst - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones Reviews

The Golden Rule: Don't listen to all the anti-prequel venom. These people are obsessive fanboys who can't rate a film subjectively. There's nothing wrong with the "acting"; it's all simply part of the restrained, professional characters. Admittedly, the're not as likable or warm as old friends like Han and Chewie; but these movies take place during a different era--One of grandiose senates and political intrigue. Episode II's first half is a great noir-like detective story following Obi-Wan; unfortunately, it loses a little steam during the third act, as mindless action takes the forefront. Still, it's a great adventure movie wether you're a Star Wars fan or not.

Pitful. - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones Reviews

Phantom menance started a new star wars and it was average. In came this one with bad story and acting. The direction was going no where and it was rushed like crazy. Too much CGI also killed this movie. Star Wars never really needed it but Lucas just thought he could bring the so called magic back with it. Overall, this movie is failure. Not even worth a rental.

Total waste of time - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones Reviews

This is how dumb this movie is: There is a scene towards the end, where the jedis (about a dozen) have to fight hundreds, maybe even thousands of robots and guess what, not one jedi was shot. Let's get real. The scene was so silly and laughable, instead of putting excitement, it just provokes you to just shake your head, and yawn in disgust. what a terribly dissapointing film.

Episode ii of the best saga ever! - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones Reviews

Star Wars is the best saga ever. The story, music, special efects the hole new makebelive universe with the finest details. Every episode is a hole new world. Episode II is unique in it's own way. The first hour - the love theme the mystery, the second hour - Anakin's first step to becoming Vader, solving the mystery the great battles and the early end leaving half of the mystery to be solved in episode III. Therefore this film can't be compared to any other. I sugest you watch it and read the book more times than once to realy comprehend it!

Nearley perfect - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones Reviews

A wonderful addition to the star wars saga - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones Reviews

An instant classic. It's everything you would want in a star Wars film. The only problem is a the movie has a little bit of wooden acting and diolog. Other than that the film is perfect. The is good and the visuals are second to none. I love the great ground war at the end of the film. And Yoda kicks ass.

I love it! - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones Reviews

It is the 2nd best movie of all time! I love the acting, I love the effects, the music, the direction, etc.

Yoda is bad ass - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones Reviews

Ok even if the movie sucked itd be worth going to see just because of the yoda fight scene. The only starwars that might have beat this one is empire stricks back but i dont think it does. so i give the movie an A+ :)

I am simply let down everytime I get talked into going to an american made comedy. Who's rating these comedy movies... post pubescent boys and girls? I guess if you think bare breasted women, stupid cliches' and just plain dumb writing is funny... more power to you. I'll stick to the foreign comedies, until Hollywood can produce something more funny than this type of garbage.
