...short of Ideas

Rating: 5/10 (20 May 2002)

Let me say that Star Wars(episode IV,V,VI) been an important experience on my childhood but after knowed that George Lucas was trying to show us the Prequels I wondered. Wondering about What,about the no sense of this operation because I'm not so curious about the childhood of our heros.Maybe was better made new stories in the future,so the spaceships look like more modern with a sense. But please,let me explane better,new digital technicals are an Important chances but if are used on wrong way you can transform a film in to a Videogame and that's what is happen. Too Much difference between scenes with real locations(see at Lake of Como)and digital locations,one is real the second NO.Cinematography by David Tattersal is standarized,lights are always the same in each scene(on THE MAJESTIC lighthouse's scene the color at sunset is the same of the lot sunset show on Episode II) Than this film is full of quotation from the episode IV,see at Anakin desert's house when drink green stuffs and there are quotation from Blade Runner and Gladiator,and I found out of place this homage to Ridley Scott. That's mean that Mr.Lucas is short of Ideas,also if the Box office,like always will belie my bad opinions.
