Summary: 4.5 Stars Actually
Review: First of all I didn't like how they reintroduced Anakin. They should have shown the "aggressive negotiatios" that he an Obe-Wan had, to prepare the audience for the semi-slow middle. The love story wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. This movie is better than Spider-Man (wich was an awesome movie as well)for two reasons: 1.) Natilie Portman and 2.) YODA!!!! I see no reason not to buy thid dvd. No, it doesn't live up to the original trilogy (what could?) but the chase scene at the beggining was awesome, and Yoda's battle with Count Dooku is a classic cinema scene that should be put in the record books as the funniest and coolest battle ever witnessed on film, and Anakin (while a little shaky in the begginning) got better with the part as the film progressed, so I think he'll be ready for the movie I've been waiting for Star Wars Episode III, wich should be a really great movie, but I don't expect it to live up to Star Wars Episode IV or Episode V, but it will surpass Episode VI I hope. My ratings for the Star Wars movies:
Episode I: 3 out of 5
Episode II: 4 out of 5
Episode III: (don't know)
Episode IV: 5 out of 5
Episode V: 5 out of 5
Episode VI: 4.5 out of 5
I think that you'll enjoy this film, unless you hate sci-fi or Star Wars, or if your a die hard Lord of the Rings fan who is jealous because Star Wars is still the biggest franchise and want to convert everyone to your little group by trying to tell people that Star Wars is dead and a stupid movie. Don't get me wrong, Lord of the Rings so far was awesome, but no movie as of yet has surpassed the greatness of the original Star Wars Trilogy, and I stand by that. It's one movie divided into 6 parts. This is the second chapter of the Star Wars saga. See it. Much better than Episode I and just barely better than Spider-Man. See it now, and may the force be with you!

Review: Not much to say, I saw it 4 times in the movies, and once at IMAX, there is no doubt in my mind that this movie is the second best one of them all, right behind of course the single greatest movie of all time, The Empire Strikes Back

Summary: Another Sell-Out piece of schlock from a Former master
Review: George, George, George. . . how you lifted us up with your first 3 titles, and then fell to pieces with the last two movies. I think you would have had a better movie if you cast simians as actors! 'Nuff said. Just remember, you don't have to say you liked this movie, just to support the SW line. It is what it is: low-brow drivel.

Summary: Possibly the Best of the Prequels!
Review: Little did my father know, when he took his six year old daughter to see Star Wars from the balcony of the RKO Theater in 1977, that he was creating a monster! As a child, my happiest memories include my father coming home from work with a new Star Wars action figure for me to play with. I spent hours reenacting the movies scene-by-scene. As an adult, I have seen the trilogy more times than I can count, collected and read the books, the games, the cards, the comics, and the toys. I read everything I can about Star Wars. I even work on a Star Wars website. So, was I going to see the latest installment of the series, Star Wars: Episode II: Attack of the Clones? You bet your lightsaber I was!!
I'd seen the trailers, heard the hype, and heard the spoilers. Was I excited? You bet! Was I disappointed? NO WAY!! The grin I wore on my face began when the title lit up the screen, and didn't leave my face until the movie was over! Now that the movie is in DVD form, I couldn't wait to check out the spectacular extras this version would provide!
The story begins 10 years after Episode I. Natalie Portman shines as Padme Amidala, who having served her 2 terms as Queen of Naboo, is now a Senator for Naboo. Now she champions the cause against the Separatists, a faction rebelling against the Republic which is led by former Jedi Count Dooku (another excellent performance by Christopher Lee). Hayden Christensen is completely believable in his portrayal of Anakin Skywalker, the padawan-who-would-be-Vader. He is joined by Ewan McGregor, who reprises his role as Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. When an assassination attempt is made on Padme's life, Chancellor Palpatine asks the Jedi Council to offer their protection, and Obi-Wan and Anakin are assigned to the case. The awesome adventure spans several worlds as we learn who has ordered the assassination attempt, watch Anakin and Padme's love grow, and watch as the Jedi and the Republic defend themselves against the Separatist army. Excellent action scenes include a fight between Obi-Wan and Jango Fett, the Geonisian arena scene, and the much hyped Yoda fight scene. This movie very well may be the best of the prequel trilogy.
The DVD version contains so many extras, I couldn't manage to watch them all in the time I had to view the DVD. However, what I did see was extremely impressive. There are loads of deleted scenes that every Star Wars fan will enjoy seeing. There's a portion of the mocumentary about R2D2 that is just hysterical. There are documentaries explaining how many of the scenes were made. Plus, the Across the Stars video, commercial clips, theatrical trailers, posters, and so much more! This DVD will make a great edition to any Star Wars fan's collection! You should definitely check it out!

Summary: I would've given a 3 but...
Review: You guys are giving scores that are way too higher than the movie truly deserves. This movie sucks, period. The special effects are great but its storyline is very lame and pretentious. And why imitate Blade Runner? It doesn't look like a Star Wars film at all but a parody of several "cool(or hippy?)" movies like The Matrix. This movie lacks originality. Yeah I agree that this DVD version has lots of great extras, but the movie itself is really bad(Of course, I know AOTC is not a artsy movie.). The story's boring, the acting's very flat mainly because of the director, and the editing was choppy and amateurish. And who wrote the stupid script? Even the fight scenes were so so compared to B-level Hong Kong movies. This movie does NOT deserve a five star. This movie generated lots of money because it's a "Star Wars" movie, and nothing else.

Summary: Well, it's better than Episode I...
Review: I have no special affection for the Star Wars series, though I do enjoy the first trilogy to some extent, and appreciate the fanbase that it has inspired. However, Episode I was mediocre to put it mildly (aside from the closing duel between the Jedi and Darth Maul, which is unabashedly cool), and therefore I reluctantly gave Episode II a shot. I was not immediately impressed. The film has assembled a fine cast, but does nothing interesting with any of the actors, and the script is content to feed them poor dialogue and rinse them of all personality. The story is likewise dull at the outset, and meanders with all the anti-glory of Episode I (though, thankfully, with much less Jar Jar). By the closing of the first hour or so, I was fighting the good fight just keeping myself awake - but then it happened. The last act of this film actually made the previous efforts worthwhile. The climax is astoundingly cool, and seems to apologize for all that's come before it. What's more, it actually mimics some of the best Star Wars moments of the past (something which Episode I failed to do pretty much throughout). So, when it's all said and done, you've got a decent film with many failings. It's a far cry from other Lucas efforts such as the Indiana Jones series (which owes more to Stephen Speilberg than to Lucas himself) or Willow (which owes more than a little something to a little tale called "The Lord of the Rings" - which also makes a far better film), but it's a definite improvement over its predecessor.

Summary: Great Movie
Review: Real Star wars Fans:5 stars Must see non star wars fans:1 star Don't bother This one is the most intence yet and you won't understand a thing Children under 10: 1 star Too scary in the middle star wars fans 4 stars. Review: This Movie is very well made. I think it is the best Star Wars since Empire Strikes Back. That was definetly a good movie. If you like special effects this is the movie for you. There are great special effects to make the movie very exciting. The acting is very good too.Unlike in episode 1. There are not so many annoying character like Jar Jar Binks. If you ask me he is really annoying. And not to mention Chewie. He is also very annoying. I think this movie is very good. Advice: Look out for intence scenes if you are planning to take younger children.I would not take any child under 10 to see this movie. Scare Factor: This depens on you. Some people are scared more easily. I think it is not too scary,but scary enough to make it fun to watch

Summary: If I could put No Stars, I would
Review: What a waste of time, horrible acting on Anakin's part. What a horrible actor, absolutely disgusting. He looks like a psycho on top of that! They should have gotten somebody better for his part. What a disgrace, he cannot act....AT ALL. Not only this, but the movie in general was a waste of time. A boring plot, dull story, just somewhat good special effects. If it wasn't for the midget, Yoda, doing foolish lightstick battles, this DVD would be nothing.
