Only Disappointing Star Wars Film, But Still Decent

Rating: 6/10 (21 June 2006)

This was the only Star Wars film of the six in the series that disappointed me. I still like it, overall, but the teen romance didn't do anything for me and took away from the normally more interesting story lines. The romance doesn't take up a lot of time but it features a lot of stupid dialog and leads to a stupid finish in the film.
On the positive side, this film offers good action scenes and excellent artwork and special effects. Some of the scenes are just stunning to view. Some, to be fair, look too computer-generated but overall it's a fun movie to look at, as it is to hear with some outstanding surround sound. The better the speakers (and a sub-woofer), the more awesome this movie. I'd like to see this on large-screen plasma set, too, to get the full effect of the visuals. The more the series went on, the better the technology to present them and this was the second-last of the saga.
"Attack Of The Clones" is the only Star Wars episode I have only seen once. Perhaps a second look will bring it up to some of the others, especially now that I am so familiar with the whole story.
