"Star Wars" is back on track

Rating: Null/10 (9 August 2002)

This movie was SO much better than "The Phantom Menace!" I found the beginnings of Anakin's fate quite interesting. The action was GREAT! This movie features some interesting revelations that tell of how the galaxy reached its state in "Episode IV," Boba Fett makes a welcome appearance as does Christopher Lee as the villainous Dooku, Mace Windu finally gets in on the action and Yoda proves to be a BADASS!!! So what went wrong? Apart from Ewan Mcgregor's fantastic Obi-Wan Kenobi, the acting is HORRIBLE. The romance and dialogue between Anakin and Padme was wooden and Hayden Christensen's acting, with the exception of his fits of rage, was atrocious. Somebody give me back that James Earl Jones voice!
