Review: 'Star Wars: Attack of the Clones' is mix match of bad romance and CG battles


Star Wars: Episode II   Attack of the Clones   PG   
            Bring in the clones! Dah ha! In part 2 of the prequels that smell freshly, it's 9 years later, or so, and Anakin has grown into...a snotty annoying teenager with powers...yipee! Padme Amidala is a senator. Politics goes out the window, with the Jedi, chasing assassins over lavish FX for several minutes. Obi Wan investigates a clone planet and fins out about a strange army he didn't order. Palpatane makes himself supreme chancellor, and you'd think someone would notice he's evil by now. But no. The lovelorn couple, Annie and Amy, go to planet Naboo on orders from the Jedi, but they bust out and head to Tatooine, where Anacin gets a headache and finds out his Mommy is about to die, even though for like 10 years he didn't bother to rescue her, and he goes and kills some sand people, to which Amidala wants to make out with him, rather than think he's a total murdering psycho. Then Count Dookie, er Dokuu, gets into a big fight with Anakin, Obi Wan, and Yoda, and Yoda flies around like he is made out of Looney Tunes rubber. Uhu. And the clones get into this big fight too. Cool SFX do not make a good movie.
