The film opens without the traditional scrolling prologue and is replaced by a transatlantic voice that would have been at home in a 1980's Saturday morning cartoon. From here we are thrown into episode 2.5 of the Star War saga. Without giving too much away about the plot: the acting and characters are wooden and two dimensional, even for a kids film (or for that matter a recent Star Wars film). The dynamic between Anakin Skywalker and his new sidekick, will grate on the nerves of anyone over the age of 8 years old. The stiff animation makes everyone come across as a cross between an action figure and a Thunderbird. Another problem is for a theatrically released film, it's "shot" (if you can call it that) in an almost camera-nailed-to-the-ground fashion. Compared to recent Pixar efforts, it looks about as cinematic as a midday tele-movie. The saving grace of this film are the fight scenes, which somewhat make up for the film failings everywhere else. As a spin off from the Star Wars franchise it's OK at best, as a kids film there's much better, as a pilot episode to the upcoming cartoon series it's watchable and if compared to a direct to DVD Disney sequel, it's decent.Read full review
I'm not a fan of animated versions of comic books. This strikes me as one. Nonetheless, I wanted to see the bridge between Star Wars episodes II and III. This serves the purpose. I suppose I will need to see the Clone War series to complete that bridge. I just feel that if it was important enough to exhibit, it should have been live, or at least, CGI.

This animated movie is essential viewing for any SW fan. Plus it features the introduction of Ahsoka Tano and Anakin's hilarious skepticism of having her as his Padawan. Seriously, peeps, Ahsoka is the best fictional character since Kitara ("Last Airbender" series).

For those Star Wars fans young and old you will enjoy this part of the Star Wars saga. Not the everyday cartoon that the art is mediocre this version of technology is amazing. It has the quality of a nonattimated film with plenty of action with a light saber. I highly recommend to everyone that ever loved Star Wars to buy and watch this film.
My kids and I have been watching the Clone Wars series and really enjoy it so we thougth we'd fill in the missing pieces in the overall story with the movie. We are glad we did. The special features are very interesting too as is the comic book. Gradually as time goes by, the animators are getting better and better, but even thought the movie is their first effort, they did a supurb job. I recommend it.
I love watching Star Wars the clone wars movie, when I was 11 years old. Also, they did have the deleted scenes from the movie not showing in theaters.

This is a great movie, especially for the younger Star Wars fans. Takes place between Episode II and Episode III of Star Wars, and directly during/before The Clone Wars Animated Series on TV. Must have for the Star Wars collector.
