If you're 10 or under, I can cautiously recommend this film, but if you're over 14, forget it. This is the most juvenile attempt at action/science-fiction I've ever seen. Simply put, it is a pathetic excuse for a movie. It is clear that their special effects consumed the entire budget for the film, and they had no money left over to pay for actors or a script.
The acting is so bad that it is frankly embarrassing. I felt like I was watching a junior high drama club. `My heart is breaking for you Yes, but this is a love that cannot be'. (barf). They are so stiff and the lines so trite that I think I could find two random teens at the mall who could give a better reading. The script sounds like it was written by a 15-year-old girl who spent the last 5 years overdosing on romance novels.
Unlike the original episode, Attack of the Clones has no fun or humor. It plods along with the bad guys plotting a rebellion while the good guys try to figure out what's going on. There was not one single laugh in the entire movie not counting my chuckles at the pathetic acting and script.
I thought the visual effects were poor given the budget for this movie. There were a number of scenes which appeared to have the actors standing in front of poorly painted landscape scenes. Even the indoor shots seemed to have a haze about them.
On a 1 to 10 scale, Attack of the Clones barely rates 1.

I'm not a big Pacino fan, but he does a good job as the coach. Portions of his locker room speeches were inspired.
However, I was really annoyed by Oliver Stone's direction and the film editing. I guess they feel they need to have that "MTV look" where no camera angle is held more than 2 seconds. What was really annoying was when they interjected flashes of lights coming on or other brief scenes during interesting conversations.

This is a fantasy kid flick that is only suitable for those age 10 or less. I was hoping for some drama and suspense and was sorely disappointed to find out this movie is little more than a cartoon show. This movie may be suitable for 4-8 year olds, but this is definitely not a movie for teens or adults.
