Incredible! Simply incredible!

Rating: 10/10 (14 June 2002)

I don't see why so many people gripe about the dialogue of this movie. Lucas is a great storyteller, maybe not the best at dialogue, but in general a great storyteller. The entire storyline from 1-6 (no expanded universe crap) is simply incredible, from Anakin's discovery & training, to his turning & tierney, to finally his fall & redemption. But back to Episode 2. I thought the dialogue was well written. You want to compare it to something? Bust this. Th dialogue in this movie is better than the dialogue of any black comedy or Chris Rock movie where all they do is go like "Damn nigga that crackas got mo money den me, he be oppressin me" Oh yeah GREAT dialogue there. Yet in reviews of movies like that, there is never a whine about bad dialogue being written. Noooo everyone just has to find something to pick on about Lucas because he's a frikkin millionaire and all.
You fans are never content are you? You saw episode I and you hated it, whining about Jar Jar Binks and the CGI ( I don't know HOW anyone could complain about that). And now you see episode II and you whine about the dumbest things like 'bad dialogue'.. oh please please show me great dialogue. The only movie I can think of that has great dialogue off the top of my head is Reservoir Dogs. That's because Tarantino can write great dialogue that comes off as everyday lingo. People give me a break and stop being so stupid with your reviews. Bad dialogue.. bah! The movie was entertaining in the least. What were your eyes closed the entire movie that you have to complain about dialogue? I was entranced with the beauty of the CGI.
I thought Christopher Lee was incredible as Count Dooku. I loved Ewan as Obi-Wan. Hayden Christensen did an outstanding job as Anakin. I felt the hate burn with him and his acting alike. Natalie Portman did a MUCH better job in this one than in Episode 1 where she was monotonous. It was great to see Anakin starting to go to the dark side, and the origin of the stormtroopers and Boba Fett.. and I was extremely happy to see Senator Palpatine's rise to become the Emporer of the later series. Too bad Jango Fett got copped out easily like Boba did in Jedi.
Great movie. Lots of fun!
