George Does It Again!

Rating: 2/10 (6 January 2019)

With exponentially clunkier dialogue and run time which gives a greater impression of eternity than eternity itself, this has so little jeapardy it's hard to care.
We all know where it has to get to, and it just outstays its welcome. On home viewing format, at least one can break it into manageable 'chapters' at about 40 mins per session.
Yet again, the emotion crux of the entire prequel trilogy should be a heartrending climax... But it just isn't, and that is down to incompetence, pure and simple: I mean, we've ALL shed a tear at a John Williams score now and again, haven't we.
Remake this, with heart and passion, and put in the epic good/evil internal struggle. I WANT to love and to feel this series, but it's so sterile..!
Amazing visuals, but because the whole thing is so badly handled, it's remarkable in its ordinariness.
