If The Phantom Menace was the setup, then Attack of the Clones is the plot-progressing payoff, and devoted Star Wars fans are sure to be enthralled. Ten years after Episode I, Padmé Amidala (Natalie Portman), now a senator, resists the creation of a Republic Army to combat an evil separatist movement. The brooding Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) is resentful of his stern Jedi mentor, Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor), tormented by personal loss, and showing his emerging "dark side" while protecting his new love, Amidala, from would-be assassins. Youthful romance and solemn portent foreshadow the events of the original Star Wars as Count Dooku (a.k.a. Darth Tyranus, played by Christopher Lee) forges an alliance with the Dark Lord of the Sith, while lavish set pieces showcase George Lucas's supreme command of all-digital filmmaking. All of this makes Episode II a technological milestone, savaged by some critics as a bloated, storyless spectacle, but still qualifying as a fan-approved precursor to the pivotal events of Episode III. --Jeff Shannon

Content: And yet, we get a mediocre story with okay voice acting and pretty gorgeous computer animation. The whole thing is just one big piece of eye candy. The square-faced look takes some getting used to, but it is rather nice in an artistic kind of way.
The script's terrible. The only good lines were given to the battle droids. "Why?!!!!!!!!!" (as it is getting chucked off the platform)
The changed opening was just tacky.
The battle scenes were decent, but not amazing, hence 3 stars and not 1 or 5.
Summary: Clone Wars Had Such Potential...

Content: this film seems to take place around the events of Episode 2, and fills in the character of Count Dooku for the viewers. Here we have sort of a backstory on him and his relationship with the soon-to-be Evil Emperor, which will eventually create the Imperial Republic.
In the feature film Episode 2, "Attack of the Clones", the Count didn't have a lot of screen time, and therefore his character was a bit under-developed. Here, we get to see his partnership with the Emperor and how it will set the stage for the events in Episode 3, "Revenge of the Sith". It helps to "fill in the gaps" that were left out of Episode 2.
Summary: fun backstory that is part of Episode 2..
