Not easy to resume the Star Wars universe; indeed, this movie failed.

Rating: 5/10 (25 October 2019)

Driving too deeply into messy space politics and not spending too much time on the main conflict of its central characters sinks this prequel movie, but it still stands up as one with a great cast, one of the best scores in filmmaking history, as well as one of the best Star Wars villains of all time in Darth Maul, a feat despite his rather limited screentime.
