Has to be seen

Rating: 10/10 (18 May 2002)

Overall i really liked the film, but a quite a few scenes made me angry, especially the whole one in the robot assembly factory, WHEN THE HELL HAS R2-D2 EVER FLOWN BEFORE?? and when C3PO fell it looked stupid, as we have never seen him move in the way we saw him do so. I was also shocked behond belief with Lucas including a scene with yoda fighting. I mean i love star wars but i think that this new film and the first film are not doing the overall story credit. I for one preferred the muppit yoda cos frankly i think the computer generated one sucks. I was very pleased to see Christopher Lee in this film as i think he is a wonderful actor and i hope he is also in the 3rd film, i also was impressed with a certain scottish actor who redeems himself after a disappointing first outing as the jedi master. I thought the younger members of the cast also did well, though i found the love scenes a bit poor. Everyone should go see this film because it is good but its no where near as good as any of the originals. I think Lucas has focussed too much on using fancy special effects to wow audiences, rather than wow an audience with a good story like he did before...
