A lot better than Episode I

Rating: 8/10 (16 May 2002)

This was much better than Episode I. Jar Jar lives but with only a bit part. The jokes are corny but that is OK too. The romance between Amidala and Skywalker might be a little confusing since they don't seem to fall in love too quickly. Hayden Christensen plays the tortured young Jedi well. This movie is much darker than Episode I and its tone and even plot bring to mind Empire Strikes Back. Overall, a good movie and a good addition to the Star Wars legacy. I was not disappointed.
