Below you will find a temporary review for this film. The real (better, more complete) review will be online very soon.
'Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones' is better than 'Episode I'.
To call that a great achievement would be pretty stupid since 'Episode I'
was a terrible movie. Well, the visuals were great. In 'Episode II' we still
have the great visuals, but fortunately this time there is more. Obi-Wan
Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) is finally turning into a real character, Natalie
Portman gets a little better, we see the dark side from Anakin in a good
scene and therefor this movie feels more like 'Star Wars'. It feels like it
really has something to do with the complete story, where 'Episode I' could
be told in a couple of phrases. The only important things in that film were
the introducing of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin and Luke Skywalker's mother.
So this movie has some improvements, but 'Episode III' has to be a lot
better again to come close to one of the three original 'Star Wars'-movies.
