Top Reviews Review created: 10/09/07 by: 5 of 8 people found this review helpful. The disappointment of Star Wars Episode 1 'The Phantom Menace' is swept aside with a more focussed sequel ...... Jar Jar's screen time is cut, mini Jake Lloyd has been replaced by a more convincing Hayden Christenson and the familiarity of the Original Trilogy galaxy returns with bounty hunters, clones and conflict !!!!!! The master/apprentice storyline, the secret love affair and the seeds of the Empire being sown give this film a dramatic pace ....... as Anakin steps closer to the Darkside you just can't wait to follow it up with another viewing of the final prequel ..... Revenge of the Sith !!!!!!!!!!!! Review ID: 10000000004377943 Was this review helpful? Report this review Review created: 31/10/05 by: 4 of 6 people found this review helpful. as i said...its the attention to poignant detail that make this so good! There are many parts of this film that if you are a Star Wars fan (like me), you just cannot miss! Much of it you expect to be good (the lightsaber battles for instance...especially Yoda's). But the image burned into my mind...picture a small boy...moments after the heat and terror of battle...crouching down...and picking up a helmet...containing the severed head of his father...severed by the Jedi. that moment was priceless! its moments like these that make Mr Lucas and his crew geniuses in my book. If you haven't seen this yet - Watch it!not because its a Star Wars movie...but because it is the prelude to the pinnacle of Mr Lucas's lifes work!

An average second installment to Lucas's prequel trilogy. The ending flatters to decieve with numerous action scenes piled on top of one another, lulling you into forgetting how verbose and tedious the first half is. The action scenes are mainly fine, and the light sabre duel with Yoda a real crowd pleaser, but are armies in the future really going to line up against each other like some Napoleonic encouter. The script and acting is often wooden but they never were the reason you are going to watch a star wars film. If you edited this and Phnatom together you'd get a pretty fine film. Good popcorn fodder. Review ID: 10000000000060421 Was this review helpful?
