First, I should say that no matter how critical I might sound in the coming sentences, I enjoyed this movie & felt I got my money’s worth. (Now for the criticism) Clones could have been so much better. The movie had a very “rushed” feel to it. Even the slow parts were cut way too fast. There wasn’t any time for the viewer to feel the emotions of the characters (or try to figure out the complicated plot – who’s bad & who’s good?). This “rushed feel” messed up what could have been some really good scenes too. The “Annakin & his Mom scene” happened way too quickly with an inadequete setup, and that was supposed to be a pivitol character-changing scene. Another scene which bugged me was near the beginning, when Annakin goes from praising Obi-Wan to cursing him way too quickly. It would have been better if he’d said nice things but been muted about it, like he didn’t really mean any of it. The love story fares a little better, but even it is rushed. Also, there are few “mood setting” scenes – like in the original, remember the shot of Luke & the twin sunset with some forlorn music? – that scene said a lot even though there weren’t any words. Many things in clones are over-spoken, when they could have been better said with images. Instead, the images are just eye-candy (very good eye-candy, but candy nonetheless). Also, the score seemed to be completely absent during the action sequences – compare the flying-through-the-asteroid-field sequence in “Clones” with the similar sequence in “Empire”. Still, like I said earlier, the movie did look neat & I plan to view it again in order to see what I missed – there was so much happening on the screen that I couldn’t process it all in one sitting.
