Yeah this one plumbs the depths even more than Episode 1. Again, the emphasis feels like it's on providing backstory and explanation for stuff that happens in the later films, rather than on simply telling a good story with interesting characters.
When you think about it, the whole prequel trilogy is like Star Wars: Gaiden. Actually it's not even that. It's more like fan fiction for the originals. Bad, inconsistent fan fiction.
My dad refused to go with me to see this after he saw the trailer. And he was right.
EDIT: Here's a piece of trivia I'm going to share even though I can't imagine it will be of interest to anyone. My brother is an extra in this. He plays Senator Dowmeia. So during those boring council sequences, that's my brother in the alien suit for Dowmeia. You're welcome.
