And now the darkside has claimed Lucas entirely...

Rating: 3/10 (4 September 2003)

If you've read my review for "Phantom Menace" you'll know I was not impressed. As a Star Wars fan I feel cheated. If this movie was made for "the audience of today" then can I be transported back in time or something? I'd rather wear bad 80's fashions then be told that "Attack of the Clones" is what appeals to "my generation".
Bad writing, bad acting, Jar-Jar (however briefly), all go to making this one of the worst movies ever(Phantom Menace still tops it).
And on behalf of Vancouver I would like to apologise for Hayden Christianson. I'm Sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I'm embarrassed for Vancouverites everywhere.
My main problem with this movie was the dialouge. "I've died a little every day since you came back" and "I hate sand. I like it here where things are [strokes Amidala's arm] smooth" and "I love you, truely, madly"(was anyone else expecting her to say "deeply" and then see Savage Garden appear and start singing?).
Who writes this drivel? Oh wait...Lucas! GET SOMEONE ELSE TO HELP WRITE THE THIRD MOVIE!!!!!!! *Ahem* I can't take anymore of this terrible terrible dialouge. I couldn't even pay attention to the plot cause the dialouge kept getting in the way so I honestly don't know if it was any good.
I again must say that the special effects did not help the movie at all. We should rename this movie this movie "Attack of the Bad CGI". I detest poorly done, shiny CGI. It does NOT look more real. Star Wars ANH is more convincing.
The yoda fight scene in all of its cheesey glory could not save this movie (plus that scene gets really old really fast).
All I have left to say is that I laughed so hard in theatres that everyone else stopped trying to be polite and was laughing too. Bad Dialouge people. Bad.
