Pros: great story, good cinematography, good acting, decent effects, respect for history Cons: overuse of CGI, some parts were slow, a little long
This morning someone asked me what I was doing today. When I said I was heading out to see the new Star Wars film, I heard "Oh, you're one of them." Yes, I am one of them if them means someone who enjoys a movie that ...
Pros: Cast. Great special effects. Story was somewhat better. Cons: Romance seemed forced. Contradicted things from the original trilogy. Anakin.
As the release date for Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith got closer, I got more anxious to see it. While waiting to see that movie, Ive gone on a Star Wars binge, watching the S

Pros: Yoda IS the Man... er, or whatever he is Cons: It's not Shakespeare so what were you expecting?
It has been proved throughout time to make people do many strange and crazy things, where their senses are not their own, where their minds are separated from their bodies, and where their desires start to become overwhelming. No, there isnt any ...
Pros: special effects have been upgraded, Natalie Portman (ah cha cha!), Yoda! Cons: love story sub-plot, Anakin whiney baby
Unfortunately, I was never able to see Attack of the Clones opening weekend because of a conflicting schedule, and had to wait until June to finally see it (and the theater was still packed to maximum capacity). When I did finally...
Pros: R2-D2, C-3PO, Yoda, some cool action sequences Cons: confusing plot, bad romance
While I found some aspects of Phantom Menace to be rather disappointing, I still looked forward to the arrival of the second installment of the Star Wars prequel in theaters. The stirrings of foreboding occurred when I heard that the title would ...
The first thing to get out of the way is that George Lucas is really a fine film-maker. That needs to be got out of the way right at the start, because I havent had a good laugh in days. Fine, he had his little run, but it was far more...
Pros: Good story, fine script, Yoda vs. Dooku duel, great score, terrific effects. Cons: Film (none) DVD extras: no comprehensive "making of" feature.
Prelude: "The truths we cling to depend on our points of view." If you have read at least a few of my 100+ reviews on this site -- thanks, by the way -- you may have noticed that I have an affinity for the Star Wars saga, hokey and imperfect as that ...
Pros: Some extra footage, documentaries, minor changes to the movie Cons: Realizing that this DVD and the movie could have been way better...
The Dark Side clouds everything
So there I was, on Amazon.com when I realized that they were allowing people to pre-order the latest installment of the Star Wars Saga, Episode II: Attack of the Clones (AOTC)....
Pros: really great special effects Cons: acting, story, writing, directing
I borrowed a VHS tape of Epidsode II, Attack of the Clones from a neighbor. I had been overseas when it came out last year and missed it entirely. When the tape first began, there was a special "documentary" about all that happened over the course...
Pros: A great DVD package with tons of extras! Cons: It would have been nice to get everyone in the same room for the commentary.
Here we go for the fifth iteration of the Star Wars Saga. Honestly, by this point I should give up the standard issue ponderings about how important Star Wars to me and to all of us born between about 1968 and 1980. Yes, you get it - ...
Pros: Lucas's worst is still better than many films, CGI characters are great Cons: Anakin Skywalker is a whiny little baby
I like to think Im an independent person and so thats why I watched the Star Wars episodes in the order of 3,1,2,4,5,6 when the rest of the world watched them in the order of 4,5,6,1,2,3. However, the real reason is that seeing ...
I guess George Lucas got a little concerned over the almost universal hatred that his dedicated fan base had felt over the last Star Wars film, because when he released the sequel Attack Of The Clones, he had all but given up on them and ...
Pros: Dazzling effects, strange worlds, new characters, intricate plot Cons: None come to mind
A long time ago in a movie theatre not so far, far away, a thirteen-year-old kid with a love for all things Science Fiction got his first glimpse into a futuristic galaxy filled with incredible characters. That kid was me, of course, and the galaxy in...
Pros: Everything. Cons: C3PO took over Jar Jar's role of being annoying.
Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones (2002) Directed by George Lucas. This second installment of the Old Republic trilogy is the longest movie in the Saga. It is also the only one that did not win highest earning film of the year ...
