The visual effects are nice, of course. There are some really cool fight scenes, but that was to be expected. Other than that, and my personal bias in favour of Ewan McGregor, there's nothing else I found all that great about Episode II. Here's what I did find: laughably bad dialogue, a complete absence of chemistry between the supposed romantic leads, generally poor acting, and a plot that I didn't care about. Having seen all the Star Wars films, most of them multiple times, I'd have to say the only one I liked less was Episode I. I'm not a huge fan of these movies, and now I finally understand why I don't get all the fuss. 4/10
