An improvement over Phantom menace, even with flaws

Rating: 7/10 (9 August 2014)

While I thought episode 1 was just okay for it's redeeming moments, thankfully this film is better, but not anywhere near what it could've been. Allow me to explain- like phantom menace, this sequel is quite a mess with it not once again having a main protagonist like the originals, and of course the painful/clichéd love story between Padme and Anakin, as well as meshing it with CG action set pieces and bogging us down in politics. Now, I'm not gonna delve deeply into this films problems as so many others have done it wonderfully. Instead, I'm simply gonna give you the reasons why I enjoy this film as I do-
1. Once again John Williams brilliant composing (especially the transition from Binary sunset into Duel of fates)
2. The idea of Palpitine playing on both sides of the table pulling some pretty big strings to get his way (minus having Jar Jar be the one responsible for 50+% of it)
3. Christopher Lee as Count Dooku aka Lord Tyrannus
4. Better CG use in the grander locations/worlds
5. Yoda kicking butt in that light saber duel
6. Ewan McGregor as Obi wan Kenobi
