Star Wars: Episode 2 – Attack of the Clones
A Jedi Shall Not Know Anger. Nor Hatred. Nor Love…
Ten years after the events of The Phantom Menace, the galaxy has undergone
significant change, and so have familiar heroes Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor),
Padmé Amidala (Natalie Portman) and Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen). They
are thrown together again for the first time since the Trade Federation invasion
of Naboo, and Anakin has grown into the accomplished Jedi apprentice of Obi-Wan,
who has transitioned from student to teacher.
The two Jedi are assigned to protect Padmé, whose life is threatened by a
faction of political separatists. As relationships form and powerful forces
collide, these heroes face choices that will impact not only their own fates,
but the destiny of the Republic.
Critic Reviews:
- " 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. " – Joshua Starnes
- " The technical wizardry of the action scenes are ultimately more important than the story and reason enough for nonbelievers to see and enjoy the movie. " – Joe Williams
- " Easily the most polarizing Star Wars film – all but 5% of the fan base loathes Phantom Menace – Attack of the Clones remains the most underrated entry in the saga. " – Jeffrey Lyles
