Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002)
Difficult to rate, it's boring but also entertaining.
This was the second chance for George Lucas to tell us the story he wanted to tell.
The characters are great, I really like Obi Wan, I think that Ewan McGregor makes a really nice and bad-ass character, Hayden Christensen plays Anakin well, but the screenplay and the dialogues don't help... All the Jedi order is nice and it's also interesting to get involved into all the jedi council and to watch a golden era of the Jedis. Count Dooku is fantastic and everything that envolves the Obi Wan plot in Kamino and Geonosis is really entertaining, but this movie has a lot of defaults, all the Anakin and Padmé plot is very boring, and the dialogues between them are very embarrasing.
But the end in Geonosis is just astonishing, there we see a big WAR, a real WAR between the republic and the Separatists, the starting point of the Clone Wars, the story George wanted to tell us with this movies.
The direction is conventional, better said BAD... And the screenplay is very defrauding, it could have been a great movie showing Anakin grow up and his relationship with Padmé and his master, but at the end it's a non interesting plot.
The action scenes are well made and John Williams and his OST is the greatest of this movie, the iconic love theme and everything else is spectacular...!
In conclusion, it's a weak movie that is hold by some interesting things of the plot, the acting and the action scenes with their OST. But it's also a great introduction to the Clone Wars, maybe for those who aren't Star Wars fans it's difficult to understand, but for those viewers that enjoy with easter eggs and interesting things about this big world it'll be enjoyable.
