Visually superb,but..............

Rating: 8/10 (17 May 2002)

This film has some of the best special effects since The Matrix but this alone cannot make a film. Lucas seems to want to make us see the loving side of Skywalker but unforunately these scenes are quite awful especially the one with the two rolling around in a field - this is meant to be Star Wars where are the light sabres. In the end they did make a superb appearance with possibly the Star Wars fight EVER yes EVER it is Yodas fight with Count Dooke. When the script failed a joke was stuck in some worked others didn't. As usual Ewan McGregor was very good with Samuel L Jackson proving again that he is one of the best actors around. In the end i looked at my watch to notice just how quickly the mega 150 minutes had gone by only then to think what has actually happened no much the answer! but then again it is Star Wars!
