So that's it ?

Rating: 6/10 (21 May 2005)

This was a fantastic action film brought crashing to it's knees by the most god awful acting I've ever seen. Hayden Christensen is perfectly set to follow Mark Hamill into the bargain bins of Hollywood. He was the worst culprit but most of the other actors were not far behind. And if we are rating this film on ALL of its merits, then acting must be taken into account. Perhaps the script writers should take the blame but someone has to hold their hands up and admit there was a monumental flaw in the film and it had nothing to do with the tremendous battles or the excellent CGI. So I rate it a 6 out of 10. Before Hayden and Co opened their mouths I would have given it a 9.
