DVD Description

If The Phantom Menace was the setup, then Attack of the Clones is the plot-progressing payoff, and devoted Star Wars fans are sure to be enthralled. Ten years after Episode I, Padmé Amidala (Natalie Portman), now a senator, resists the creation of a Republic Army to combat an evil separatist movement. The brooding Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) is resentful of his stern Jedi mentor, Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor), tormented by personal loss, and showing his emerging "dark side" while protecting his new love, Amidala, from would-be assassins. Youthful romance and solemn portent foreshadow the events of the original Star Wars as Count Dooku (a.k.a. Darth Tyranus, played by Christopher Lee) forges an alliance with the Dark Lord of the Sith, while lavish set pieces showcase George Lucas's supreme command of all-digital filmmaking. All of this makes Episode II a technological milestone, savaged by some critics as a bloated, storyless spectacle, but still qualifying as a fan-approved precursor to the pivotal events of Episode III. --Jeff Shannon

The Real Bad Turns that Genetics and Cloning Can Take

The Star Wars Saga continues with Attack of the Clones, a title that spells the forbiding doom that the Phantom Menace prepared to unleash in Episode I. Ten years after the first episode, things are only getting worse for the galaxy that popped out of the mind of writer/director George Lucas. The characters from the first film have developed tremendously, and like I said before, the decisions that they make take dark, and saddening turns. However, the excitement from the first episode is still intact, if not better, than it was before, and the anticipation of the third episode is really the best part of the viewing. A superior sequel if I ever saw one.


Very very bad sequal! I'm very angry as a fan of the series.

This is bad. It stinked! I mean really and you can check my profile I don't usually go out of the way to give this bad of a review. Is there a minus star? Not just that it was bad it ruined all the other episodes and what Star Wars was about. I am very disappointed and insulted. This was about the same as a muppets cartoon. Lucas are you serious and have you lost your marbles? What a stab in the back to the orginal fans. Growing up I remember seeing Star Wars at a very young age when it first came out but it was not just for kids it was for everyone. Attack of the clones took a good movie series and made it into a cartoon that is for non-Adults without all the great actors that the orginal films had with real roles. Surely they could have done a better job. It's too bad they ruined what could have been a great movie. I don't know what kind of mentality (other than a very young child) a person would have to sit though this entire movie without getting up and walking out. What an injustic to Star War fans. You think that at some point it will get better. Don't waste your time.


Star Wars Episode II, Attack of the Clones

Wow, how could such a great series produce something that's just, how do I put it lightly, bad?

Every part of this movie's acting was bad, with the exception of Ewan McGregor, Samuel L. Jackson and Frank Oz is, of course, Frank Oz. Anakin's actor has now been replaced with.... (plays dark music) Prettyboy Hayden Christianson. How do I discribe this guy, well, something like this: If this guy was shot for every time he delivered a line badly, his remains would make Freddy Kruger look like an amateur. Next is Natalie Portman reprising her role as Senator (formerly Queen) Amidala, it's not that she's necessarily bad, it's just, she's just not any good.

I would have given this movie 1 star if it weren't for Ewan McGregor and an awesome (but corny) ending battle sequence.
