Plus John Williams' music was outstanding. Then again, Lee is an exceptional actor who can act anything you throw at him. There is no doubt though that the acting honours go to Christopher Lee as the villainous Count Dooku. Frank Oz is excellent as always as Yoda, and Ewen MacGregor is more at home here than he was in Phantom Menace. Natalie Portman is quite captivating as Queen Padma, and displays a lot of emotional depth. The battle sequences are well choreographed, the pace is somewhat brisker than in Phantom Menace and the performances with the exception of Christensen are very good. Still despite the major flaws, it is a marvel to look at with stunning sets and impeccable CGI. I will admit the dialogue is weak and gets nowhere at times, the plot isn't as well thought out and felt convoluted at best, Haydn Christensen does give a truly abysmal performance as Anakin and although the presence of Jar Jar Binks was toned down here his presence anywhere seemed jarring. I do agree that this is the weakest of the six Star Wars movies, but it wasn't by all means a terrible movie. Who is the leader of the Separatist movement? Will Anakin receive Obi-Wan's message?
