Toren C @RT37158721 3d Terrible cgi mixed with bad writing, but with a very interesting and amazing universe! See more Mike D. @BuckeyeMike 3d The action is great! The rest of it is cringe. See more Chris P @Xiao_Proxies 4d Attack of the Clones is a solid entry in the prequel trilogy, though it lacks the impact and novelty that The Phantom Menace brought. The film shifts its focus toward the development of the relationship between Anakin and Padmé, while subtly laying the groundwork for Anakin's eventual fall to the dark side. Attack of the Clones has enough strong elements-especially in character development and lore expansion-to stand as a valuable chapter in the saga, even if it doesn't quite leave the same mark as its predecessor. See more Dave A @CruizerD Mar 27 How to make a second Star Wars Prequel. 1. Take two actors who have less chemistry than an empty beaker, cast them as romantic leads. 2. Make sure you can get home by 4:00 p.m. each day, so whatever you do, don't do multiple takes of scenes no matter how badly the actors butcher the performance. 3. In a world of ray guns, have your secondary villain use a unique dart that is easily traceable so you can have a "mystery." 4. Show the character that was described as noble warrior seduced by the Dark Side to be a petulant, entitled creep from the beginning. 5. Have characters say the most banal things imaginable as they fall in love, fight battles or get executed in a public arena. 6. Disregard all the gentle wisdom Yoda gave in the Empire Strikes Back and have him lead an army of clones that apparently no one paid for against an army of robots so that there is lots of action, but no stakes. 7. Roll credits with that amazing score and hope no one noticed the rest of the film.

It explores genres like film noir through investigations on rainy planets and the massive scale of Earth's war. It's a key piece for understanding the political machinations that lead to the collapse of a democracy, setting the stage for the final, great tragedy. See more Marco G @ser0bi1392 Mar 17 A step up from The Phantom Menace although it still carries some of the same issues. The dialogue can be rough, but George Lucas’ creativity is on full display with bigger worlds, more politics, and a galaxy that feels more alive than ever. Where it works is in setting things in motion. This is where the saga starts to lean into something darker, with Anakin’s gradual downfall and the looming promise of a galactic war. You can feel the tension building, even if the execution isn’t always perfect. It gives us a deeper look at the Jedi Order's strength and blind spots. Messy at times, but still exciting and undeniably Star Wars at its core. See more Read all reviews
