Boring!

Rating: 1/10 (18 May 2002)

There are films that keep you thinking about them for days to come. "Star Wars - Attack of the Clones" is not one of them. Ok, the special effects are great, but that's about all. I was surprised to see the closing credits since I was still waiting for the plot to start. Even "Lord of the Rings (Part I)" was much better. I work in the special effects industry, so this was mandatory viewing for me, but I'm appalled when filmmakers use a movie as a mere vehicle to show off the achievements of their computer graphics team and have no interest in the actual story. This is especially disappointing for a high profile film like this, where so much talent of the animators was wasted on a story so lacking in imagination.
