An entertaining movie.

Rating: 7/10 (13 August 2002)

I am no fan of big FX summer blockbusters, and only saw the recent Star Wars movie due to my continuing affection for the original trilogy. I was quite surprised, therefore, that I enjoyed this film. It had everything that Attack of the Clones lacked - likeable, believable characters, a decent script and some fast-paced plotting. I don't know whether the sequel will be as good, as my favourite part of this film was when Peter Parker was coming to terms with his powers. A fully formed superhero is far less interesting. However, for once, I was not left thinking "How can people watch/make/take part in this drivel?"
