I can't help but wish this film did not exist. I won't spend a lot of time expounding about the worthlessness of this film. The clunky animation is worse then most video game animatics. The story is maddeningly simplistic, nay, downright stupid, the awkward dialog vomit-inducing. What Lucasfilm was thinking by releasing this theatrically is beyond me...well not really, the reason starts with $ and ends with $. This is the pilot for the animated Clone Wars TV series debuting this fall on Cartoon Network or TBS or something. A series I was looking forward to seeing. No longer. Some may say this is a "kids cartoon," and it is, but that's not an excuse for sucking. It did accomplish it's intended goal, however, as my 5-year old loved it, and immediately wanted me to buy him the severely over-priced toys. Worst film of the year, so far.*
The Sneaky Cheetah's Grade: F
