Weak Sauce
Lets start with the goods. First no jar-Jar binks. Thats right the enoying jamican stereotype has nothing to say(However im still hungry for a scene that involves his decapitatation.)Second, less god awful love scenes and more lightsabers hitting droids and other lightsabers! Unfortunately the bad is...well everything else. Hayden Christenson gives a slightly better performance(very slightly) but Portman returns as horrible as ever, in fact this movie made me Question her career as a whole. Not that theres much point to acting anyway, the Shakespear's rolling in his grave style scripting continues with laugh out loud moments that are supposed to be touching, darkness and lots of battles can never replace the characters and plot that made the first 3 movies so great. At least moments where you actually feel for these characters shine through the dull plot, in fact the end battle that leaves Anakin in peices almost makes up for the rest of the movie's dimwitted filler love scenes. But the terrible B-movie acting and 2 corniest scenes in movie history paired back to back push you back to reality, watch the movie for it's glossy fight scenes, but when the mouths open shut your ears until guns and sabers take center stage once more.
The rest of the crap: The Star wars you dont want to remember summed up.
The phantom menace
Pitiful and bile inducing George lucas's first reinvention of Star Wars was A miserable failure only remembered for being the greatest letdown of all time and Darth Mauls cool double lightsaber. Both acted and dialouge are stilted beyond belief, and no one on earth would ever believe that such a nice young boy could ever be evil cuthroat lord Vader.
Attack of the Clones
While slightly better than Phantom Menace(But then again so is intestinal Flu) this dissapointment still has major problems that mar the experience. first of the acting is horrible, Hayden Christenson's only acting talent seems to be getting a stomach ache during love scenes-get this man some Tums!(and an acting class while your at it.) while natalie portman is a warm appeareance Neither she, nor the awesome action sequences can pull this movie out its stilted, monotonous script.
