Major disappointment

Rating: 4/10 (7 June 2002)

This movie has to be the biggest disappointment this summer. I couldn't help to think that The new Star Wars will never be as good as the original, not matter how good the special effect gets. First of all the dialog is horrible, the love story should have been a big part of the movie, but it is not convincing at all. The movie is full of poorly constructed logic. For example, why the hell the bounty hunter trying to use some poison bugs to kill the senator, when he can actually put some bugs into her room without any trouble, why not just shoot her right there. Also the special effect didn't get very good untill the second half, the sky chase part of the movie is not original, merely a shamelessly copy of Fifth Element which was made 6 years earlier, and still looked a lot better than this movie. The only good thing I can say about this movie is the special effect at the end, yes it is very good. But for some reason, I am not that impressed. I think I expected Star War to be this good. I found BladeII and Spider Man to be better movie this year.
