disappointing

Rating: 6/10 (27 May 2002)

It's almost a maxim that the more a movie gets hyped, the worse it will be. Episode II comes close to falling into that category.
Everyone says Jar-Jar Binks must die.
Not Jar-Jar, but that little twit, Hayden Christensen, that played Ani.
If my teenage daughter's reaction to him is typical, they cast him as a heart throb only. They sure didn't get him for his acting abilities.
Episode II wasn't anywhere near as good as Episode I, although seeing Ms. Portman in her white jump suit was worth the admission.
