Review of Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002) by Keshav P — 28 May 2016

It seems that every time a good Star Wars film is made, they follow it up the worst way imaginable. Never did I think that George Lucas could make a Star Wars film that was worse than Return of the Jedi.

This one's awfully close. Where do I begin?!?! The plot is all over the place. Obi Wan is investigating the attempted assassination of Senator Padme Amidala and comes across a clone army made on Jedi Master Sifo Dyas' order.

But in the movie, the jedi believe he died before the army could've been made. So who ordered the army?? I guess it's a plot point that'll never be answered. Meanwhile, Anakin is supposed to be protecting Padme.

First of all, Hayden Christensen's acting is an abomination. C3PO can deliver lines less robotic than Christensen. He's not completely at fault though. The writers do an awful job at developing Anakin's character.

This is the man that is one day going to be Darth Vader and he's acting like a whiny little brat. But I guess Luke had to pick it up from somewhere. The writers also try and force a ludicrous romance between Anakin and Padme.

Christensen and Natalie Portman have no chemistry between them. The dialogue is laughable as well as the circumstances. Why would the jedi assign a Padawan to protect Senator Amidala?? Wouldn't they want an experienced Jedi?? You can pick this movie apart any way shape or form.

It's just a complete mess.
