Hayden delivers on Anakin

Rating: Null/10 (20 May 2002)

I just went to see Attack of the Clones for the second time. It was terrific. It wiped out The Phantom Menace, which desecrated the Star Wars Saga. Hayden Christensen was out of this world. He carries this movie. His portrayal of Anakin is exceptional. The climax of the movie is when his anger consumes him to the point, he looses control. A sign of things to come. This one scene has more raw emotion then any other scene in the Star Wars trilogy. This makes Vader's fate more believable. Granted that ATOC is a little of beat in some instances, it accomplishes something that the previous three couldn't. It immerses the audience in the true world of Star Wars to a point that has not been reached before. Gamers have had a glimmer of George Lucas' imagination, but ATOC fully expanded this in the movie. Finally, ATOC set the tone for the movie that I believe will be the most shocking of the 6, and will explain how Anakin becomes Darth Vadar.
