Movie Review - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones

George Lucas has drawn a line in the sand and DARED other film makers to cross it. All the complaints we directed at Phantom Menace were heeded and have culminated into simply the best movie I have EVER seen. So much is waved in our faces as temptation, Jedi Battles, A young Boba Fett, Luke's Aunt and Uncle as they were, and some excellent Jedi and Sith Powers used and well displayed. If you don't see this film at the cinema then you HAVEN'T seen it.

It needs the large screen and THX to appreciate the nuances. This is a film that will require at least 3 viewings to take it all in. I forgive George for allowing Jar Jar Binks to return, but if a Jedi falls over 1000 feet he'd leave a big hole in a spaceship when he hit it or rip his arms out trying to catch hold of it, OK? This mistake and the fact that the film is a little too long do not detract from it's sheer beauty. Christopher Lee, you are a GOD in this, perfection personified. ILM have raised the bar with the most mind blowing special effects. The pieces are finally starting to fall into place and the big picture is becoming clearer.

This one's gonna run and run. Loved it George, Now do the same with part 3. And reconsider making the 3 films after Return Of The Jedi please?
