This movie is so cool! I agree that the beginning was a little choppy, but once the action started, coooool! I love Padme's costumes, much better than they were in Episode I. I especially love the dress she wears at the end. I loved ALL of her costumes. Obi-Wan finally had a bigger role, Ewan McGregor is going to do some good in these movies. He has proven himself an actor. Yeah, Anakin was bit of a jackass but that's how he was supposed to be. He was supposed to be a narcissist, that's how he became Darth Vader. Yoda has a really cool fighting scene, you have to see it to believe it!!!! SEE THIS MOVIE, NOW!

This is what many cultured people should call "a true desecration of a classic." They ruined this musical from what it was supposed to be! Glenn Close is obviously far too old to be playing a twenty-something year old. She's a decent singer but her singing was terrible for this role. The filmmakers obviously needed to cast someone much younger who could sing. A young woman could carry this role convincingly, Glenn Close could not. Glenn Close was not at all convincing in this role because she was too old. Harry Connick Jr. was probably the best part of this whole desecration. He can carry a tune, but his singing is not the greatest.

Overall this movie was utter nonsense, and they trashed it up even! Why do filmmakers think that they can remake classics? These days filmmakers are stupid in thinking that they can modernize classics and turn them into trash in order to please the stupid people. If you are a purist for musicals, do not see this movie for your own good.

This movie is sooo romantic, yet it does not contain any sex. It's fully clean, with the exception of Rhett's last word. Vivien Leigh is superb, nobody can play Scarlett O'Hara like she could. No one. She totally deserved that Oscar. Clark Gable was superb as well, again, no one can be Rhett Butler ever again because he was so good. I love this movie. I also love Mammy, because she steals the show with her humor and her pure charm. Hattie MacDaniel deserved her Oscar as well. You know, I think this movie would adapt into a great musical if someone with skill picked it up. There are millions of spots where a song and/or dance number could be placed. This movie is among my favorite movies of all time. It's a classic, you have to see it. It's more romantic than "Titanic" will ever be.
