It seems this movie was made just to milk one joke.

Rating: 3/10 (31 May 2010)

So, Ewan McGregor played a Jedi in the Star Wars series and here he is in a move filled with Jedi references. Isn't that hilarious? Isn't that one of the funniest things ever?!? Well, the makers of this movie seem to think so. The movie is filled with scenes of McGregor's character discussing Jedis. You can almost see the actors wanting to wink at the camera as they imagine the audience rolling on the floor laughing at this bit of manufactured irony (over, and over, and over, and over again). I can't see any other reason why McGregor was cast other than to have this one running joke. His painful attempts at an American accent are a constant reminder that the role should have been given to someone else. He's not an American and he's not a wimp (which his character is supposed to be). He's being forced into the role just for this one joke, and basically, that's all there is in this movie, this one joke.
