Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 7/10 --
Probably the most difficult of the Star Wars films to take in (maybe tied with The Last Jedi) but the one with the biggest payoff if you do.

Attack Of The Clones lacks the light heart of the "old" trilogy but this deliberate throwback to matinee movie serials is still fun.

Rating: D- --
The core story could have been good or at least has good elements... Unfortunately all of that gets lost in a terrible romance between Anakin and Padme with some of the worst romantic dialogue I've ever heard.

Rating: 3/5 --
A third of the film is a wooden and awkward attempt at romance, but the film strikes a better balance of comedy and action that makes it far better than Episode I...

A forgettable and discontented tale of entropy and corruption, of a grand, idealistic venture that has lost its way.

...George Lucas has reached deep into the trove of his self-generated mythological world to produce a grand entertainment that offers a satisfying balance among the series' epic, narrative, technological and emotional qualities...
Variety
...No screen fantasy-adventure in recent memory has the showmanship of CLONES' last 45 minutes...

Product Description:
In the second installment of the Star Wars series, EPISODE II--ATTACK OF THE CLONES, Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) is now a teenage Jedi apprentice to Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor). Together they must protect Senator Padme Amidala (Natalie Portman) from a militant group of political activists that is trying to assassinate her. This group is led by the evil Count Dooku (Christopher Lee). Among other troubles, Anakin faces some hard choices as he begins to fall for Padme, knowing this love is forbidden by the Jedi knights' creed. In addition, Anakin begins to show his rebellious attraction to the dark side--which will eventually conquer him, when he becomes the future Darth Vader.
The story is set 10 years after STAR WARS EPISODE I: THE PHANTOM MENACE, and there are appearances by some of PHANTOM's characters, including Jar Jar Binks. CLONES also brings back familiar faces from the original STAR WARS: the lovable droids R2D2 and C3PO, and Yoda, who plays a key role in this film. Lucas creates an impressive array of beautifully rendered alien planets and beings, sleek spaceships, and dazzling effects; he remains at the head of the class in terms of technical ability and visual imagination. The film's climactic final sequences show the magic with which CLONES' earns its place as part of the beloved STAR WARS series.
