DVD Reviews of Star Wars - Episode II, Attack of the Clones (Widescreen Edition)DVD Review: Not an improvement on Phantom Menace... Summary: 2 StarsDespite that many say. It's cast is worse, and the dialouge is vomit worthy. Own it cause it's Star Wars.
DVD Review: "Star Wars:Episode II-Attack of the Clones" Summary: 4 Stars"Star Wars:Episode II-Attack of the Clones" was presented at the Cinemark Theatre at the Hampshire Mall in Hadley,Massachusetts.I purchised my ticket a couple of weeks in advance and despite some of the negative reviews that I read,I was still eager to see this film.After leaving the theater,I realized that although it wasn't as good as the first three "Star Wars" films,but was just as good as "Star Wars:Episode I-The Phantom Menace",I was being entertained.I like watching movies that entertain me and this film did a good job at that.I like to point out that we are living in an age where computer technology seem to be an open doorway to the art of special effects."Star Wars:Episode II-Attack of the Clones" is a great example of that.Some people question the idea of Yoda being recognized through CGI.After all,he began as a puppet in "The Empire Strikes Back"."Star Wars:Episode II-Attack of the Clones" did prove to me that even the best ones have a downfall and even though I enjoyed this film,it seems to lack the same sort of storytelling that was evident throughout the first three "Star Wars" films,but that didn't bother me at all.Director George Lucas is in my opinion telling a story although some people might not see it."Star Wars","The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi" were all about the end of the bad and the beginning of the new."Star Wars:Episode I-The Phantom Menace","Star Wars:Episode II-Attack of the Clones" and "Star Wars:Episode III" which will come out in Summer,2005 is more of of an explanation to how we got to the events of the first three "Star Wars" films.I question myself as I type this review.Would George Lucas use the CGI technolgy if it had existed when he made the first "Star Wars" movie.Yes,I think he would have."Star Wars:Episode II-Attack of the Clones" gives us more insight on the evolution of Anakin Skywalker's path to the darkside."Star Wars:Episode II-Attack of the Clones" is a film that I have seen twice because it entertained me and I enjoyed it.Every movie series has a downfall and while this film proves that,it still has that grab your popcorn and stare at the screen in amusement attitude.Despite some of the negative reviews it had and despite some of the negative thoughts I had about this film,I liked it for what it is:A fun film that did not dissapoint me.
DVD Review: Better than Episode I... Summary: 4 StarsBut not as good as the third or the original trilogy. I bought it just to finish my SW DVD collection.
DVD Review: My son enjoys the series Summary: 5 StarsI ordered episodes 1 thru 3 for my son. They all arrived before the promised arrival date and with no damages.
DVD Review: There is no Beating the Beginning of the Clone Wars... Summary: 5 StarsI've Waited long Enough, heard enough Criticism taken enough Star Wars and George Lucas Bashing. It is August of 2008 as I write this. Star Wars Is and always has been a Cultural Phenomenon. Why has the Original Trilogy Flourished, while the Prequels have been treated less then kind to. First off Episodes I-III are The story of Anakin Skywalker. Not the back story of the Exploits of Darth Vader. We have to know the Man before we Know the Monster. Episode II is how Anakin and Padme fall in Love and the fall af the Republic into Civil War. I Thought it was a Terrific Movie. Hayden C. Can act, He is a Good (Young-Future) Vader. Natalie Portman is Perfect as the Mother of Luke and Leia. And Ewan Mcgregor is Without a doubt the perfect young Obi-Wan Kenobi. Yoda in action. Jango Fett, Young Boba Fett. The Origin of the Clones. THE JEDI IN ACTION!!!!!
as Star Wars fans We have been waiting A LONG TIME for this. It is happening in this movie. PLus we are Treated to the Start of the Clone Wars. The Battles are Unbelievable. What More do people want. So what, we have a Love story going on. Anakin and Padme are Supposed to Fall in Love!!!! They Sire Luke and Leia Don't Forget.
In My Opinion the reason the Prequels weren't as big as the Originals, I hear a Million and one reasons. The reason is clear. The Originals came out They Blew everyone away. No one EVER saw anything like that before. Since then there have been so many movies to come out with so many advances and action, effects, and blockbusters like never before. So when the 3 Prequels came, people were expecting the Second Coming. Obviously NOTHING can live up to that kind of Hype. So 3 Great movies each one better than the last get Destroyed by all the "so-Called" Fans and Critics. That is why they didn't get their Proper Status.
Description of Star Wars - Episode II, Attack of the Clones (Widescreen Edition)When political seperatists attempt to assasinate Senator Amidala, Obi-Wan Kenobi tries to find out why while Anakin acts as protector to Amidala and begins a forbidden affair with her. Genre: Science Fiction Rating: PG Release Date: 22-MAR-2005 Media Type: DVD 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, Padm? 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
