Don't listen to the critics

Rating: 10/10 (15 May 2002)

For everybody out there who seems to be obsessed with trashing this movie because they think they sound smart, I have a comment for you. Let it go.
This is Star Wars, this isn't an oscar calibur movie. Sure, some of the dialog is choppy and the characters are not that well developed, but who cares? Star Wars is about letting people escape to a galaxy far, far away. It isn't meant to change your perspective on life, but more to give you eye candy and an escape from everything in real life. This movie is visually stunning and doesn't even have too bad of acting for a Star Wars movie. I would recommend this over Spider-man any day of the week, and would watch Attack of the Clones five times again before I viewed Spider-man a second time. Right after I saw this, I immediately wanted to see it again. I can't wait for episode III, and I sincerely hope that George Lucas doesn't take the critics seriously. This movie, like all Star Wars, is meant to be fun. And it is. It is probably the best Star Wars movie outside of Empire, and it isn't too far behind that. Critics can wax philosophic on acting and plot, but the fact of the matter is, nobody should give a damn about those things when it comes to Star Wars, because it is VERY entertaining, and the last time I checked, that's the only think I really care about from a movie. Attack delivers a winner, and Yoda's lightsaber battle is awesome. GO SEE THIS MOVIE
