Summary: You 1 star people just don't get it!
Review: Why all the bad reviews, This was not meant to stand alone on its own, it is a chapter of a much larger story,... when Episode III is complete, all 6 movies will play out like a miniseries, In this one we see the developing relationship between Anakin & Pademe' that will birth Luke & Leia, we also see Palpatine orchestrating his takeover of the Republic with Count Dooku doing his dirty deeds, we witness the beginning of the Clone Wars that was so talked about in Episode IV: A New Hope, Ewan McGregor does a wonderful job as the younger Obi-Wan Kenobi, as does Hayden Christiansen as a Impatient & ambitious Jedi Anakin seeking ultimate power as he begins to embrace his anger that will lead to him becoming Darth Vader, as well as the Clone Troopers that will become the Stormtroopers as well as the impending fall of the Republic & Jedi, George Lucas has delivered here with consistensy, somthing that is rare in franchises, & Episode III will be the darkest of all in order to set up 1977's A New Hope, yes, Lucas may be in love with special effects, but isn't that why we go to the movies to begin with, to be takin to a place we have never been?? stop nit-picking, & enjoy it for its fun, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but AOTC delivered in my view,... definately one of 2002's best movies, & should not be ignored if you want action, romance, & mystery, the DVD is one of the best DVD's out there as is TPM!!!

Summary: Sorry, this is just a question
Review: When does the next installment come out? Thanks

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Oh boy...
Review: Well, this movie was pretty bad. Yes, the CGI was acceptable, but not the top tier compared to what is out there right now. Forget the actors; they were limited in what they brought to the screen.
All in all, just sad.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I say Dune, the movie, was better
Review: for one reason alone: unbelievable actors! Captain Picard from Star Trek was incredible here and should have been noticed for his prowess. Spice rules!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: RAZZIES?
Review: Who cares if the Razzies nominated Clones for "worst film of the year?" If you like it, that's fine. I personally was disapointed in the entire affair. This could have been a great film given the acting talent on board, but alas, marketing dominated these days.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Vastly improved over Episode I
Review: This prequel is a sequel to a prequel. Perhpas this is the first time that's ever happened in the movie industry. Anyway though, what can I say, It's Star Wars. Episdoe II furthers the background into the Star Wars universe, and does so in amazing fashion. The characters and story are developed further than they were in Episode I, and Anakin's transition to the dark side of the force can be seen in a brilliant light. This movie also features the best sound effect in the history of film, which may sound trivial, but my GOD was it cool in theatres. Plus...Yoda. We'll leave the movie at that. The DVD itself has a lot of great special features that you will enjoy viewing. I strongly recommend this film to everyone.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good at first.... not as good later
Review: I was quickly enamoured by Episode II when I saw it at midnight on opening night. Although I had reservations due to the acting job done by Hayden Christensen, Anakin Skywalker, I liked the movie thoroughly. This idea started to diminish on my second viewing of the movie.

Probably three days later, I went to see the movie again. However, this time, I started to realize that was not as high quality as I thought it was. The two big killers were the love story and Christensen's acting.

I may be cynical about young love, but that does not change the truth of this claim: The love story in Episode II was absolutely terrible. It is a long drawn out plot of Christensen asking for love and getting shot down almost every time. It's not very novel to have an aspiring individual and someone who really shouldn't marry fall in love. Not only that, but whoever wrote the love scenes between Christensen and Portman really must have been trying to make them corny. That's all I can say. It just leaves one groaning as they watch the adjective corny become substantive in a movie form.

I'm not trying to be mean so I'm not going to say that Christensen is a bad actor. My only major qualm with his acting is that his vocal inflections leave something to be desired. It may not even be his fault, it could be the people who were coaching his acting. I just know that it didn't help the movie.

The only major positive aspect of the movie is that it shows how the Empire of episodes IV, V, and VI, begins to rise from the Republic. It is probably the most interesting part of the storyline because it shows some depth.

I'll give the move 3 stars out of 5 because it is entertaining. It is just that certain elements make you groan. That isn't even a bad thing, but the groans stick out in my memory in many ways, which is a bad thing.

Summary: Question
Review: Why did the international outdoor campaign have to be included in this dvd?

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Oofa!
Review: Boy, this was a stinker! How can people honestly give this marketing device five stars? No adults enjoyed it, just children who got caught up in the special effects. RAZZIES for worst film of the year? You bet!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A bad title, but a great movie.
Review: Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, is in my opinion the best of the Star Wars movies. About the only complaint I have about it (other than the title) is that Ian McDiarmid (Palpatine/Sidious) didn't get enough screen time. Ewan McGregor did a fine job as Obi-Wan Kenobi, even more so in this movie than in Phantom Menace. The story was well written, combining the various elements of romance (Anakin/Padme), mystery (Obi Wan's search for Jango Fett and what it uncovered), and political intrigue into one very enjoyable movie. The battle scenes were terrific, especially the lightsabre duel between Yoda and Dooku. I can't wait for Episode III.
