You may not notice it, but a lot of things happen between the films of the 'Star Wars' saga. A lot of the time these events boast no significance to the series, but the Clone War is so very important. Thus, in the era between 'Attack Of The Clones' and 'Revenge Of The Sith', two volumes of a cartoon series titled 'Clone Wars' have been released. Each short episode tells a story of the Clone War, and because said episodes are so short, you won't be bored easily.
Admittedly, there are some episodes here which prove tedious and this makes me very thankful they are so short. I honestly couldn't care less about the underwater battle, and the wars Masters Windu and Yoda assumed weren't as exciting as scenes involving Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, Count Dooku and General Grievious.
The action in 'Clone Wars' is considerably enjoyable, with some decent animation effects. The character models are very unfaithful to the true films, and while some might argue this adds comedy effect, said comedy is certainly inadequate. The proper sagas are serious films, and so should their filler stories be.
Some might imply that the film is too short to warrant a purchase, and in a way I suppose they are correct. 'Star Wars Clone Wars' boasts a mere twenty episodes, which adds up to around one hour and five minutes. However, the episodes occasionally get repetitive (like in the Jedi fighting styles and animations) so it's great to see it end before the novelty runs out, and often you are left with the infamous wishing that you were in the film now, tempting you to pull out the second volume or play a similar game such as 'Star Wars Battlefront' or 'Resistance: Fall Of Man'.
Despite few tedious scenes, dislikable character design and occasional repetition, 'Star Wars Clone Wars' is a very decent film, definitely worth my recommendation. You might just be better renting it because of the length, but at an inexpensive price, the film is definitely worth it.
Four Out Of Five.
