Better than Episode I but still not great.

Rating: 7/10 (30 May 2002)

After the dissapointment of my second viewing of Star Wars (it was the first time at the cinema) I and the kick-ass trailer I saw for Star Wars II I must say that I was expecting a far better and exciting movie than Star Wars I. However, I was dissapointed once again. This time wasn't as bad thought but still dissapointing. The problem as I see it is George Lucas. He simply can't seem to follow up the orignal films and is making much worse films now so he can squeeze all the money he can out of the Star Wars brand. The love story that the film is centered around is awful. I couldn't help but laugh at parts of it. It really is that bad. Also the ultra crappy Jar-Jar Binks is back but in a much smaller role than that of Star Wars I. The good points of the movie are the fight scenes which are all great particually Joda at the end of the movie. In fact the end fight seems to drag the film out of the toilet bowl at the last minute. I can only hope that Lucas gets it right for Star Wars III. So should you see this movie. I say yes. Not only for the sheer experience of seeing Star Wars on the big screen but Joda in a but of lightsabre action is worth the price of the ticket itself.
