What to Know

Critics Consensus

Mechanical animation and a less-than stellar script make The Clone Wars a pale shadow of George Lucas' once great franchise.

The movie really is just a series of long emotionless action scenes. That's really all this movie is. Go to Full Review

The "Star Wars" franchise has become what the marketing executive always thought: an excuse to steal money from children. The Lucas empire has finally succumbed to the Dark Side. Go to Full Review

Despite some absolutely gorgeous animation and adjusting expectations for what Clone Wars is meant to be, the Force is not strong with this one. Go to Full Review

Kyle B. @DodgerCat Sep 22 Opening scene goes on for way to long. Couldn’t tell when it was supposed to take place. The movie really isn’t as bad as people say but I wouldn’t call it good. The whole Jabba the Hutt son is stupid. Even though I’m saying bad stuff it wasn’t that bad See more Brandon A. @Brandon189 Aug 8 Not a good movie, but leads to a great series. See more Benson S. @Bens0n26 Jul 31 It is pretty bad, I don’t know if it deserves as low of a rating as it has but the lack of an interesting storyline definitely hurts. Asoka is a fine character but can be pretty annoying at times. Very unnecessary and bad addition to a great franchise. See more Wesley H. @historynerdnumber1 Jul 18 It’s ok… i guess It bad See more Kid R. @Philadelphiagoosebumpsfan Jul 16 Awful it can’t get any worse See more BRENDEN J @Moviefan109 Jul 10 Star Wars The Clone Wars was not bad, but it was ok for what it was, but The Clone Wars show was way better than this.
