Just perfect...

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

My second favorite in the Prequel Trilogy, it moves faster than the first. We have a forbidden love, the birth of the Grand Army of the Republic - made of clones. The Separatists and their droid army, as well as the plans of the nefarious Count Dooku, assistant to the evil Palpatine who's plans are all coming together. The beginning of the fall of Anakin Skywalker. We get to see the Jedi at the height of their power, and their utter failure to recognize evil at their own doorstep. A very entertaining film.

Noticeably better than the phantom menace. First of all the effects are a lot better and not very rubbery. The only bad performance is for Anakin, but I still like it because of how meme-able it is. The action is really great except for the final saber duel which is horribly choreographed. But the part with yoda I find fun. The plot with Obi-wan is good. The romance is so bad that I enjoyed it. Some of the best and worst moments in all of Star Wars can be found in this movie, most of the bad moments coming from some hilariously bad dialogue. I can say that unlike the phantom menace I was never bored for long periods of time. So in the end despite having no emotional impact, attack of the clones is a worthy entry in Star Wars. I give episode 2 70%

Easily the worst in the SW franchise. No real character development, for anyone, and all characters are one-dimensional and dull. Even the passion from Ewan McGregor and Ian McDiarmid fails to come through on screen - largely due to a poor script. CGI was unnecessarily forced, and it holds up the least of all the films by today's standards. Anakin's romance didn't hold me, and the film was oversaturated with lightsabers everywhere. In the originals, (and sequels), lightsabers were treats for the audience. Here, the tradition was broken hardest, in having the sheer volume of them on-screen at once. The film also lacks any stand out moment, that all the other films have: Maul and pod racing from TPM; the transformation scene in ROTS; the trench run in ANH; Vader's reveal in ESB; the duel in ROTJ; Han's death in TFA; and Luke's death in TLJ. The only redeeming factor, is that it gave us some quality memes.

This came out in my late high school years and I was so excited. I was looking forward to more movies in the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker saga. After being a bit disappointed with The Phantom Menace I hoped that there'd be a better movie. And you know what? I actually enjoyed this second film of the prequel trilogy. Natalie Portman, Ewan McGregor, Ahmed Best, Samuel L. Jackson, and Frank Oz are all back, along with some new faces. We get to see more new worlds and see what events transpired for a certain war for the dying Republic. Sure, we could have more action and less of the talk scenes, and maybe there could be a more compelling plot, but this did it decently. The alien creatures in the movie really stole the show. They could definitely make Ray Harryhausen blush!
