Its a great animated movie, another side of Star Wars we haven't seen. I saw it opening day in a packed theater. Another thing, people say the animation sucks, well its not meant to be realistic its a cool "Funky/Different" style of animation. Great Film, funny and has great action. Stop Hating people
This is not it's only problem. Most critics don't like it because...
1.) The animation is sub-par for movies, but okay for TV. Therefore it's theatrical release is seen as unnecessary.
2.) It happens between AOTC and ROTS so we know that all the main characters will live and we don't worry much about them.
3.) The soldiers are either clones or robots, so there isn't much at stake to care about so for the most part you're not worried about the fights. They are mindless and pointless.
... I see what they mean, I see these points. Then you add in stuff like Zero the Hutt which is just lame, plus some bad lines which I've read about... it's just not that great. Sure it's okay for kids, but I doubt many kids will think it's great either.
"It's for kids" is not an excuse for sub-par quality.
I doubt anything in this movie is as clever as how Gennedy Tartakovsky used Mace Windu in the original 2D animated one. That episode where he fights the giant machine without saying one word. It's all done visually. This is the brilliance behind it. Gennedy tells the story visually and with sounds without any lines of dialog.
And by the way, this "Funky/Different" style is just ripping off the style Tartakovsky invented himself (The guy did Dexter's Lab and Samurai Jack --- so this is just HIS art style)... but his style works best in 2D.
