And it was, I guess. Much of the hype was media-generated and began before lines for the film even formed. That I am of two minds about its merits as a news story is appropriate, considering that duality is one of the film's dominant themes.
Several characters play two roles.
Queen Amidala, played by Natalie Portman, shares a symbiotic relationship with her decoy, a handmaiden called Padme. And mentor-master relationships abound. Digital character Jar Jar Binks is a Gungan, whose underwater species shares a symbiont relationship with land dwellers on Naboo, ruled by Amidala. I am not of two minds about the film itself, which, appropriately, I have seen twice. Seeing it through their eyes was my good fortune.
