Great special effects,bad story

Rating: 6/10 (29 May 1999)

Well,I had read a lot about,and heard from other people about how annoying JarJar Binks was,and I guess I'd have to agree,I think most of "his" scenes could have been clipped out,and the movie would have improved quite a bit.The special effects were great,I have no complaints,but it was way too "kiddyfied" for me.The original SW and Return were pushing it pretty close.Lucas should have modeled the new film on the Empire Strikes Back,It wasn't too much one way or another,It brought balance to the force!Hopefully,the next one will get it right...
