A visually offensive trash film. Everything is CG. Yoda, clone troopers, A PEAR! Lines are poorly written, with consistently terrible acting (other than Ewan McGregor). Anakin and Padme act weirdly, Jango is clumsy, Baby Boba Fett's laugh is one of the most annoying things you'll ever see on footage and just to add more insult to injury, Jar Jar Binks shows up and BECOMES SENATOR! WHO ALLOWED THAT TO HAPPEN? Overall it's a big mess of a film with a few decent action scenes, one of which would be good if they didn't cg it all making it look fake.

If you thought Phantom Menace was bad, you haven't seen Attack of the Clones. Its so much harder to sit through with an unlikeble and annoying main character, that being Anakin Skywalker, stilted acting, terrible dialogue, an abysmal and near unwatchable love subplot and an overuse of ugly looking outdated CGI. How can anyone say that the Last Jedi is worse than this?! This is what I would call the only bad Star Wars movie

The first totally digital shot Star Wars film and it sure looks it. Virtual sets, virtual characters, virtual plot and virtual performances. There's still a lot to like in this movie, it has the most contrived love story and easily the saga's worst dialogue. But it also has a wonderful soundtrack and love theme as well as a visual feast of FX sequences to keep you entertained. A guilty pleasure of a Star Wars movie. 👍🏾😎
