Review of Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002) by Garrett ! — 11 Jun 2014
Star Wars: Episode II finds itself in the unfortunate position of the second film in a trilogy, a notoriously difficult position to fill. Attack of the Clones is not the first film in the franchise to tackle the challenge, but compared to The Empire Strikes Back it is found woefully inadequate.
Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones repeatedly misfires with incredibly wooden acting, a script that probably sounded better on paper, and special effects that have not aged as well as the original trilogy's.
It still has its moments and the creative spirit of the films remains as strong as ever, but isolated incidences of excellence cannot carry long periods of poorly delivered storytelling.
