Again, poorly scripted, sloppy camerawork, and a dumb plot, with great visuals and very entertaining battles sequences. This is the middle chunk of this story, where we begin to see the dark side of Anikin, and a foreshadow of his soon-to-be future. We follow a grown up Anikin Skywalker as he becomes stronger and understands the ways of the force. ½ Somehow slightly going backwards on things that the first prequel completely failed on, 'Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones' is not is any way a good film. Meanwhile, Obi-Wan travels to the secretive planet Kamino and the asteroid-ringed world of Geonosis, following bounty hunter Jango Fett (Temuera Morrison) and his son, Boba (Daniel Logan), who are involved in an operation to create a massive army of clones.Ī vicious battle ensues between the clones and Jedi on one side and Dooku's droids on the other, but who is really pulling the strings in this galactic conflict? In late 2002, the movie was released in IMAX theaters as Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones: The IMAX Experience, with a pared-down running time of 120 minutes in order to meet the technical requirements of the large-screen format. The young Jedi and Padme fall in love as he escorts her first to the security of Naboo and then to his home world of Tatooine, where the fate of his mother leads him to commit an ominous atrocity.
After another attempt on Padme's life, Obi-Wan and Anakin separate. Someone is trying to assassinate her on the eve of a vote enabling Supreme Chancellor Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid) to build a military force that will safeguard against a growing separatist movement led by mysterious former Jedi Count Dooku (Christopher Lee). The pair are ordered to protect Padme Amidala (Natalie Portman), the former queen of the planet Naboo, now representing her world in the Galactic Senate. Unusually powerful in the Force, Anakin is also impatient, arrogant, and headstrong - causing his mentor a great deal of concern. Now 20, young Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) is an apprentice to respected Jedi knight Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor). Attack of the Clones is above average, but not the greatest thing ever either.The second prequel to the original Star Wars trilogy takes place ten years after the events depicted in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace. So, my advise: don't listen to roaring Star Wars fans who claim this movie to be one of the worst things ever and don't listen to those, who claim this one to be best thing since sliced bread. It's mostly fun to watch, action sequences are good, special effects are even better and despise some bad acting and some pretty horrible dialogs, it wasn't pain in the back side to watch. It's not best film in the Star Wars saga, but in my opinion it does deliver.
But as said, this is much better film than Phantom Menace. Who is behind all this? Will Padame and Anakin fall in love? When does Anakin fall in to the dark side? Will he become a Jedi before all this? Some of these questions are partly answered in AOTC, but some are left waiting for the third installment of the new trilogy. This soon leads in Obi in discovery of secretly manufactured clone army.
Obi Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor), and Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) are told to watch over senator Padame (Natalie Portman) because of assassination attempts towards her life. Jackson as Mace Windu and Ian McDiarmid as Palpatine. others deserving nomination here are Samuel L. But happily all those under achievers are not in any important roles and seasoned actors like Christopher Lee (Count Dooku) do deliver what you expect of them. And some of the acting is, even in the standard of the Star Wars, pretty horrible. But it does contain couple of unnecessary segments, which drag the speed of the film down. Attack of the Clones in the other hand is in comparison a superior achievement from PM. This is, I've found out, true only with the Phantom Menace, which was very poorly directed and edited piece of film. If you listen to some fans of the original Star Wars trilogy, the new one is crap.
