Synopsis:
STAR WARS takes on a dazzling new look in the first-ever animated feature from Lucasfilm Animation - STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS. As the Clone Wars sweep through the galaxy, the heroic Jedi Knights struggle to maintain order and restore peace. More and more systems are falling prey to the forces of the dark side as the Galactic Republic slips further and further under the sway of the Separatists and their never-ending droid army. Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan learner Ahsoka Tano find themselves on a mission with far-reaching consequences, one that brings them face-to-face with crime lord Jabba the Hutt. But Count Dooku and his sinister agents, including the nefarious Asajj Ventress, will stop at nothing to ensure that Anakin and Ahsoka fail at their quest. Meanwhile, on the front lines of the Clone Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Master Yoda lead the massive clone army in a valiant effort to resist the forces of the dark side.

CRITIC REVIEWS
LEW IRWIN

With each new release of a Star Wars movie, the reviews grow harsher. The animated Star Wars: The Clone Wars is being shot down by critics as if it were a target in a video game -- with which it is being compared. Roger Ebert in the Chicago Sun-Times says that producer George Lucas has reduced the franchise "to the level of Saturday-morning animation." It is, he writes, "a deadening film that cuts corners on its animation and slumbers through a plot that (a) makes us feel like we''''ve seen it all before, and (b) makes us wish we hadn''''t." Joe Neumaier in the New York Daily News regards the film as "the latest indignity" to Star Wars fans. Linda Barnard in the Toronto Star comments that Lucas has "whored out the much-loved Star Wars saga." And while some critics suggest that small children may enjoy the film, Jason Anderson in the Toronto Globe & Mail warns, "parents may be perturbed by the film''''s relentless violence." But Nathan Lee actually gives the movie a left-handed compliment in the New York Times, writing that it "comes as something of a surprise: it isn''''t the most painful movie of the year!" Likewise Roger Moore in the Orlando Sentinel writes that it is "actually better than expected." And writing in the Los Angeles Times, Michael Ordo?a grants that "there''''s knockout animation, facsimiles of popular characters and plenty of action. But anyone older than 8 with the majority of brain functions intact will have a bad feeling about this."
