Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones

Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker
Ewan McGreggor as Obi-Wan Kenobi
Natalie Portman as Senator Padmè Amidala
Samuel L. Jackson as Mace Windu
Christopher Lee as Count Dooku
Director is George Lucas

Action/Adventure/Fantasy-Anakin is ten years older than in Episode I and more trained in the Force. Obi-Wan has been transfered from pupil to teacher, and none too happy about it. Meanwhile, attacks have been made on (former Queen) Senator Amidala and is sent into hiding (like the world now), with Anakin (aka Annie!) to protect her. Mace Windu of the Jedi Council and Yoda try to fight Count Dooku who authorized clones to be made of Boba Fett's father to fight. Now Annie goes with Amidala to find his parents while the Clone Wars are going to begin.

7/10-Not as good as the first three, better than the fourth. I liked that they didn't spend much time on unecessary things (i.e. the Pod Race in Episode I). Hayden Christensen (Life as a House) was good, and Sam Jackson had more time than the first. FYI-Sam himself chose his purple lightsaber, it has nothing to do with Mace's personality. The action scenes were good, and the little bit of romance was OK too. It got a little tedious after a while, though, if you see it more than once.
Rated PG for action.
