Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe entire "aggressive negotiations" conversation during the dinner scene between Anakin and Padmé was ad-libbed by Hayden Christensen and Natalie Portman at George Lucas' request, due to his not being happy with the romantic dialogue he wrote for that scene.
- GoofsWhen Ki Adi Mundi first draws his lightsaber in the Arena, it is blue. After Yoda and the clones arrive, his lightsaber is green. Seconds later, when he gets on a ship, his lightsaber is blue again.
- Crazy creditsActors Jerome St. John Blake, Hassani Shapi, Gin Clarke, Khan Bonfils, Michaela Cottrell and Dipika O'Neill Joti are credited for playing the same Jedi Council members as in Episode I, although they did not film any new footage for Episode II. Instead the Jedi Council scene uses recycled footage from Episode I. Many of those parts were re-cast (or in some cases renamed) for Episode II, during the Battle of Geonosis, using Australian actors, but they are not credited.
- Alternate versionsThe 2011 Blu-ray release introduced a couple of minor editing changes that also carried over to the streaming and UHD versions:
- When Anakin and Obi-Wan pass through the power coupling during the speeder chase on Coruscant, Obi-Wan now completes his line "Anakin! How many times have I told you to stay away from power couplings?" before the shot of them actually passing through (which originally came before the second part of the line).
- Right after the lightsaber duel between Yoda and Count Dooku, three shots (a close-up of Anakin on the ground, a wider two-shot of Anakin and Obi-Wan, and a close-up of Yoda) have been moved to before the sequence of Count Dooku escaping the planet. After this sequence, it cuts to the wide shot of Yoda picking up his cane (which originally came directly after his close-up).
- ConnectionsEdited into Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones: Deleted Scenes (2002)
Featured review
First off the movie had some good aspects about it. For one the relationship between Obi-Wan and Anakin was phenomenal. They were emotional and comedic at the same time. The second thing is the action. This movie was very action packed and the choreography in the fights were very good. The conflict was nice as well I just wish they didn't have as many sub-plots. I didn't like how unnecessarily long this movie was, it felt like 3 hours. Some scenes didn't need to be included and I didn't like how they made it seem as if Anakin was obsessed over Padme but other than that their romance was believable and cute. The acting was strong although sometimes it came off as bland. The beginning tried to be serious but ended up looking like a joke. The movie was pretty good overall but could've done better.
