Predicting a long, hot summer for Clones is the easiest possible forecast to make. The Lucas legions will be out in force opening day, of course, and will return for further study of the political turmoil, nefarious plots and character misalliances that cloud that galaxy far, far away. That feeling returns only near the end of Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones, during a rescue operation and climactic battle that occupies the last quarter of the film. The not-so-good news is that Lucas still struggles to replicate the spirit of fun and adventure of the original Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back.

The good news about George Lucas’ new Star Wars movie is that the universally loathed Jar Jar Binks is little more than a dress extra, action scenes are pumped with lightning-quick effects and choreography, R2-D2 and C-3PO are together again for the first time, and the whole thing feels more adult than The Phantom Menace, which launched his second space-opera trilogy. On May 5, 2002, The Hollywood Reporter praised the film for its lack of Jar Jar Binks, while pulling no punches in criticizing the movie’s performances and dialogue. After generally disappointing fans with The Phantom Menace, George Lucas returned to the Star Wars universe with Episode II - Attack of the Clones.
