Since I am not a fan of science fiction or comic book movies I try not to look at them with too much scrutiny. I know that George Lucas has taken some lumps over the years for certain decisions that he has made as a filmmaker but at the end of the day he is still responsible for a franchise that has brought so many people so much joy.
That said... to call this movie a pile of steaming dung would be an offense to dung. I don't know what is worse - the dialog, the characters designed to sell toys or the acting (ok, I do know - it's the dialog). At some point if you watch closely you can see Liam Neeson give up. How did Natalie Portman's career survive this? She was comicly bad. And let me get this straight - this film is clearly aimed at kids but the central conflict is... a taxing dispute? And finally, yet another movie about taking out the shields. Ugh. And if you didn't know better there is a music bed playing throughout the movie - this is always a sure indicator that the director does not have confidence in the material.
