Star Wars Episode II - Attack of the Clones - Review
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...
EPISODE II
ATTACK OF THE CLONES
The second part of the story, a lot better than the first but not that awesome as the third. Here we see an Anakin in his 20 years old (more or less) and still in love with Padmé Amilada and still missing his mother who has been captured and with the Jedi Council against him...can something else go wrong with him? But still he doesn't look that stressed in this film (at least on this one), we only see a wish of revenge after a fury attack, the actor doesn't play it that bad but he doesn't have that angry feeling like in the next film.
Here we see an older and wiser Obi-Wan Kenobi where you can see his experience teaching young Skywaler about what's right and what's wrong, he looks and sounds like the perfect Jedi master that he is.
The plot is very interesting: Ten years later, Anakin Skywalker shares a forbidden romance with Padmé, while Obi-Wan investigates an assassination attempt on the Princess and discovers a secret clone army crafted for the Jedi.
Here you discover a little more about the Jedi Council and old Jedi members like Sifodias or the main villian from the film, Count Dooku! He's one of the best characters from the Star Wars Saga, played greatly by the great Christopher Lee, he was a jedi until he went to the Dark Side, on the film you don't see clearly his real intentions until the end.
Padme has a larger role in this film as she's the forbidden love for Anakin, altrough he's older than her in real life, in this film says the opposite which I've never been convinced about this. I'm a big fan of Natalie Portman, so I can't say anything bad about her...but let's say she's not at her best here...
Also adding Mr. Samuel L "Motaf**king" Jackson as a great character, the second strongest Jedi in the universe Mace Windu. You'll see him fight in this film as well with his unique lightsaber.
In this film you see, for the first time, Yoda fightning with his lightsaber, and while it's a short scene in this film, it's very enjoyable to see the Master of Jedi fight and he does it amazingly good. This ones has plenty of action and fighting scenes including a good one Obi-Wan VS Jango Fett and the entire ending is a big fight.
The special effects are amazing here, the final fight looks very real and the truth is, everything was computer-generated! Even Yoda is made by computer in this one to make him more realistic when he moves and fights (but, thanks god, with the same voice as always)

· What I liked most: Obi Wan Kenobi at his best - Same goes to the great acting of Chrispother Le as Count Dooku - The final fight plus the change to see Yoda in action for the first time!
· What I didn't like: The acting for Hayden Christensen as Anakin is not that great, he's not likeable- The relationship between him and Padne doesn't feel - Dialogue is so simple it hurts, same goes to the plot.
