George's got it back on track that certainly isn't a cloned film!

Rating: 9/10 (18 May 2002)

Attack of the Clones is simply not as good as Star Wars, but then again that's our problem..... we are expecting the impact of A New Hope. But this is Star Wars in 2002. The special effects are outstanding. The crew has to win the special effects oscar or I'm going to cut my feet off!! Obi Wan flying through the air dangling off an assassin droid is simply a new achievement in special effects. Hayden Christensen shows off a fantastic talent, especially in his reunion with his mother. Superb. Portman's acting is a little wooden especially in the "by the fire" scene. But what points she loses in acting, she more than makes up for with sensual, lingering looks & fantastic costumes (well done the costume dept). It's in this film that we first get a taste of everybodies favourate Star Wars character. Although he's still only a young child, he still manages to give off a "I wouldn't mess with me if I were you" aura. Boba Fett of course is being bought up by himself (or rather he's a clone of his older, slower self), that is Jango Fett. & Yoda..... wow. Imagine a squashed, green, angry Bruce Lee & you've got everyones favourate Dagobah resident. Just cool! Well done George for jetesoning (One of his favourate words)the tight plastic atmosphere of Episode 1 & making Episode 2 one of the best films of the year! Finally, is Dooku good or bad? I'm sure there's a couple more surprises up Master Lucas' rather big Jedi cloak sleeves.
