All I can say is "Yoda's da man!"

Rating: 9/10 (28 November 2002)

I had an idea what to expect when going to see this film. It wasn't as epic as a few other Star Wars, but it was a story that needed to be told to fit the other ones together.
It was a fun ride at points and I know I will get stoned by all the Star Wars fans for saying this but...I could have done WITHOUT the love story. Yeah, yeah, I know THAT was what was important, but it fell pretty flat to me. If they were going to do it, then it should have been done better. It didn't "grab" me at all.
But to make up for this weak attempt at a very important love connection, the action was to die for. I loved each and every minute of it and the best was YODA! I stood up and clapped in the theater. What surprised me is that I wasn't the only one!
Overall, this film was adventurous, it was fun, it was "Star Wars" and a very important part of the series. Sadly, the all important love story was dry as a chip, but thank goodness the other parts of the film made up for it. But I do recommend this film highly.
