Not a bad movie, but not worthy of the Star Wars name

Rating: 6/10 (27 December 2009)

The main problem with this movie is the plot. It's pretty uninteresting. Only the story of Anakin is somewhat interesting, but hes way too young to do the things hes supposed to be capable of. He accidentally destroys a starship, yeah right. Also, why should we care for the planet of Naboo? JarJar Binks and his race are annoying. The pod race is the highlight of the movie.
Liam Neeson and Ewan McGregor are good in their parts. The rest of the cast is more or less wooden though. The effects look too much like CGI, they don't look real. All in all it's not a bad movie, but not worthy to belong to the Star Wars saga.
