Lower Your Expectations

Rating: 1/10 (24 May 2002)

Episode II is better than Episode I, like getting an enema is better than getting disemboweled. Again, Lucas has given us a half-hearted attempt at a real motion picture, a galaxy far, far away from the original trilogy. This film looks like a low budget production of a string of unrehearsed first takes, shot with the script's first draft, edited together hastily, and layered with $125M of state of the art digital effects. We should all expect more from our entertainment.
