Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones [Region 2] description
If The Phantom Menace was the setup, then Attack of the Clones is the plot-progressing payoff, and devoted Star Wars fans are sure to be enthralled. Ten years after Episode I, Padmé Amidala (Natalie Portman), now a senator, resists the creation of a Republic Army to combat an evil separatist movement. The brooding Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) is resentful of his stern Jedi mentor, Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor), tormented by personal loss, and showing his emerging "dark side" while protecting his new love, Amidala, from would-be assassins. Youthful romance and solemn portent foreshadow the events of the original Star Wars as Count Dooku (a.k.a. Darth Tyranus, played by Christopher Lee) forges an alliance with the Dark Lord of the Sith, while lavish set pieces showcase George Lucas's supreme command of all-digital filmmaking. All of this makes Episode II a technological milestone, savaged by some critics as a bloated, storyless spectacle, but still qualifying as a fan-approved precursor to the pivotal events of Episode III. --Jeff Shannon |

Attack of the Clones
|
Star Wars #2. Roger Ebert accused Anakin, Obi-Wan and Padme of being the real clones. They speak in monotones. Ebert said they sound like lawyers. By now, character and spirited dialogue were taking a back seat to Lucas' fascination with computers. Lucas gave mixed signals as to how many stories he had. At different times, he reported 6, 9 and 12, as if he were trying to be conservative on one hand and losing control of the series on the other. The films ultimately became anti-climactic, playing second fiddle to advance publicity and merchandising.
