Rating: 8/10 (24 May 2002)

I went to this film not believing that It would be much better than Episode I, MAN! was I in for a PLEASENT SURPRISE! this film rocked. I always felt like Episode I felt more like a spin-off film rather than A true Star Wars film, NOT TRUE with Episode II. now this IS Star Wars. It did remind me of "The 5th Element" toward the begining of the film during the Skycar chase sceen. And this film did slow down into two halves, the OBI-WON half which is a detective(who dunnit) story line--and the other half of this film is the Anikin half wich is a slow sweeping love story. The Actor playing Anikin is perfect for his role. George Lucas redeemed both himself and the Star Wars franchise with this film. My only complaint is that the tital "Attack of the Clones" is mis-leading because the clones are the good guys helping the Jedi to fight a Droid Army. I thing a better tital would have been "Jedi Master Yoda Kicks Ass"--because that was one of the highlights of this film for me(everyone in the movie theater busted out laughing and at the same time cheering during Yoda's fight scene-it was great!).I will probably see this film at leat 2 more times while it is still showing at the theater, and now I thinking of watching Episode I all over again. My only other disapointment was that I had read some internet rumors that Jedi Master Jourus C'boath, and Grand Admiral Thrawn(from the Timothy Zahn novels)were going to have a small bit-parts in this film,and they didn't..... but thats okay--this is the Star Wars film we've all been waiting for since 1983. I cannot wait to see Episode III. I give it 9 stars out of 10 - near perfect film
