<p>The film opens with a narrative explaining the &quot;several thousand solar systems have declared their intentions to leave the Republic.&quot; Amidala, formerly the Queen of the planet Naboo is now a senator in the Galactic Senate, and is going there to vote on the creation of an &quot;Army of the Republic.&quot;&nbsp; (Evidently up until now, there has been on Army, only the small organization of Jedi Knights who have been keeping the peace.)&nbsp; Upon landing, an explosion kills her body-double Corday, and Chancellor Palpatine recommends that Amidala be placed under Jedi protection.&nbsp; Obi-Wan Kanobi and his pupil Anakin &quot;Ani&quot; Skywalker are selected to be her protectors. Ani wants to seek out the murderer, while Obi-Wan berates him for being over-zealous.</p>

<p>The next scene we see briefly the conspirators discussing how to try to kill Amidala next.&nbsp; Then the scene shifts to a conversation between Obi-Wan and Anakin over the protection of Amidala.&nbsp; They are speaking outside the chamber in which she is asleep, with R2-D2 watching over her.&nbsp; We learn that Anakin is in love with Amidala but disturbed by dreams of his mother.&nbsp; While they are talking, a droid is hovering outside the window of Amidala's sleeping chamber, and introduces to the room some nasty looking giant poisonous millipedes.&nbsp; Of course they immediately slither right into her bed.&nbsp; The two Jedi sense the creatures before they can strike.&nbsp; They rush into the room and destroy them and Obi-Wan leaping through the window grabs the droid and flies off hanging from it.&nbsp; Anakin jumps into a &quot;speeder&quot; (a flying car) and races out looking for Obi-Wan.&nbsp; A sniper shoots at the droid and Obi causing Obi to fall and Anakin shows up just in time to race under him and catch him in the speeder.&nbsp; They then go racing after something.&nbsp; Apparently either the droid or the sniper. After a two-minute chase, Anakin suddenly jumps from the speeder and falls quite a distance but lands on the sniper's speeder.&nbsp; There is then a mid-air speeding scene of him hanging on to the outside as the sniper tries to shake him off the speeder.&nbsp; Watch it on YouTube <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0M16jLl-k2c&amp;NR=1">Part 2</a></p>

<p>After much struggle, the speeder is now damaged and starts to descend erratically.&nbsp; Anakin falls off and the speeder crashes.&nbsp; Now they start a street chase.&nbsp; The sniper ducks into a nightclub and Anakin and now Obi-Wan follow.&nbsp; At this point Obi-Wan prophetically proclaims to Anakin, &quot;Why do I think you're going to be the death of me?&quot;&nbsp; They find the sniper when she tries to kill Obi-Wan, but he wounds her instead.&nbsp; Just as she is about to name her bounty-hunter employer, she is herself killed by a toxic dart shot from afar.&nbsp; The Jedi Council now instructs Obi-Wan to track down the bounty-hunter while Anakin protects Amidala and escorts her back to Naboo.&nbsp; At this point she is called the &quot;leader of the opposition&quot;.&nbsp; Obi-Wan is unsure it is wise to give Anakin this assignment but here we learn that, &quot;If the prophecy is true, your apprentice is the only one who can bring the Force back into balance.&quot;&nbsp; There is now a scene where Amidale assigns her Senate duties to Jar-Jar Binks and then follows an interchange between Anakin and Amidala where she expresses her displeasure to Anakin at being required to return to her planet.&nbsp; Anakin expresses his resentment at Obi-Wan, &quot;He's overly critical, he never listens, he doesn't understand.&nbsp; It's not fair.&quot;&nbsp; Amidala knows that Anakin wants her sexually, but she puts him off, &quot;Please don't look at me like that,&quot; she says, &quot;It makes me feel uncomfortable.&quot; (A great set-up to tell us that yes, they will indeed &quot;get busy&quot; later on.)</p>

<p>Anakin and Amidala now leave with their sidekick R2-D2.&nbsp; Now the scene shifts to Obi-Wan in a diner where he meets an old friend, who identifies for him the dart thingie that killed the sniper lady.&nbsp; He identifies it as coming from a planetary system Kamena, but when Obi-Wan tries to find such a place in the &quot;Archives&quot;, the records only show a void in that spot.&nbsp; He makes the mistake of saying to the prototypical &quot;spinster librarian&quot; that, &quot;Perhaps the Archives Records are incomplete&quot;.&nbsp; She aloofly tells him that, &quot;If an item does not appear in our records, it does not exist.&quot; (But of course we all know where this is going.)&nbsp; However, a later scene with Yoda points out that the file information was probably erased, &quot;Only a Jedi could have erased those files, but who? and why? Harder to answer.&quot;&nbsp; There is a scene between Anakin and Amidala where she tells him she thought it was forbidden for a Jedi to fall in love, and he informs her that no, it's not.&nbsp; (More set-up here.)&nbsp; Now we have another scene between Anakin and Amidala where we learn that her term as &quot;Queen&quot; was an elected position.&nbsp; A scene between Amidala and the Queen back on Naboo, now introduces the &quot;Trade Federation&quot; as another player in the conflict.</p>

<p>The new Queen of Naboo now states that we must continue to believe that the Republic can work. &quot;The day we stop believing Democracy can work, is the day we lose it.&quot;&nbsp; Obi-Wan takes a flyer and goes in search of his missing planet, and finds it right where it should be.&nbsp; He learns to his astonishment that he has been expected there for years.&nbsp; Apparently Jedi Master Cyphodias, now dead for ten years, had earlier commissioned an army of clones to be the &quot;Army of the Republic&quot; and they are now ready.&nbsp; Now we return to Anakin and Amidala at a seashore villa where they talk and finally kiss.&nbsp; Back on Kamena, Obi-Wan is given a tour of the clone army and learns that they are all clones of the bounty hunter Janga Phet who is still living there.&nbsp; Again back to Anakin and Amidala where in a heart-to-heart talk he espouses his belief that the political system would be better as a dictatorship.</p>

<p>Anakin has a nightmare, where he sees his mother suffering.&nbsp; He decides he must go to her, and Amidala decides to go with him.&nbsp; Meanwhile Obi-Wan finds the bounty hunter Janga Phet trying to flee the planet, and they have a gun battle.&nbsp; After a bit of this, Obi-Wan ends up falling off the building but then getting back inside again.&nbsp; Just as Janga is taking off in his spacecraft, Obi-Wan throws something which attaches itself to the outer shell (tracking device? bomb?).&nbsp; Next we see Anakin and Amidala on his home planet Tatooine, where he meets-up with his old owner/employer.&nbsp; But Ani's mother is no longer there, she was sold years before.&nbsp; Returning to Obi-Wan, he is tracking Janga Phet, but is found-out and a chase ensues with explosions, shooting and what-not.&nbsp; Probably a very useful set-up for the video game version.&nbsp; A homing missile is on their tail, but Obi instructs R4 to fire some &quot;spare part canisters&quot; which confuse the missile causing it to explode.</p>

<p>Of couse, Janga Phet thinks the explosion he sees is Obi-Wan's death, and so continues on to his destination, but really he is still being tracked by Obi-Wan who follows him down to a planet where, &quot;There are a large concentration of Federation ships.&quot;&nbsp; Meanwhile Amidala and Anakin have tracked his mother to a small farm, where he meets up again with C-3PO, and learns that his mother Shmi Skywalker has married to a widower Cleve Lars who has children from his previous marriage.&nbsp; He learns that his mother was taken a month ago by Tuscan raiders.&nbsp; Now Anakin goes out in search of her, while Amidala stays with the Lars family on their farm.&nbsp; Meanwhile Obi-Wan is wandering around a giant cathedral where hidden he finds an assembly line for making droids. He overhears their plans, one guy says, &quot;We must persuade the Commerce Guild and the Corporate Alliance to sign the treaty.&quot;&nbsp; The other guy says, &quot;What about the senator from Naboo?&nbsp; Is she dead yet? I'm not signing your treaty until I have her head on my desk.&quot;&nbsp; The first guy says, &quot;I&nbsp;am a man of my word Viceroy.&quot;&nbsp; So now we learn who is partly behind the conspiracy. &quot;The Banking Clan will sign your treaty&quot; &quot;Our friends from the Trade Federation have placed their support.&quot;&nbsp; Anakin now tracks the raiders to their camp and finds his beaten and exhausted mother as a captive.</p>

<p>Anakin finds his mother, but she dies in his arms.&nbsp; His rage is overwhelming and he decimates the camp.&nbsp; Even Yoda can feel the disturbance, &quot;Young Skywalker is in pain. Terrible pain!&quot;&nbsp; Obi-Wan is too far out-of-range to send a signal back to the Senate planet Corisant so instead he tries to raise Anakin on Naboo but discovers instead that his tracking signal is now on Tatooine. &quot;What the blazes is he doing there?&quot;&nbsp; But meanwhile Ani is carrying his mother's body back to the farm.&nbsp; &quot;Why couldn't I save her?&quot;, he asks, &quot;I could have, I know I could.&quot;&nbsp; Amidala responds, &quot;Sometimes there are things no one can fix.&nbsp; You're not all-powerful&quot;.&nbsp; &quot;Well I should be!&quot;, he exclaims.&nbsp; This sequence was designed to show us the motive behind his later descent into the persona of Darth Vadar.&nbsp; He blames Obi-Wan for &quot;holding me back&quot;.&nbsp; Amidala incongrously replies at this point, &quot;What's wrong Ani?&quot;&nbsp; Then we learn that he wiped out all the people in the camp, men, women and children. &quot;They're animals! And I slaughtered them like animals!&quot;&nbsp; Next is the funeral of Shmi.&nbsp; R2-D2 shows up and C-3PO&nbsp;interprets that he is carrying a message from Obi-Wan Kenobi.&nbsp; We now learn the planet where the droids are being created is called Geanosis, but also that Obi-Wan is under attack.&nbsp; The Jedi Council tells Anakin to stay where he is and protect the Senator.&nbsp; She however tries to persuade him that they have to go rescue Obi-Wan.</p>

<p>Now the captives are surrounded by a group of battle droids, but the Jedi knights show up to take on the Seperatists council.&nbsp; And we get another large battle sequence with lots of Jedi and droids and creatures.&nbsp; The bounty hunter is killed by that black Jedi Council member (whatever his name is).&nbsp; R2 shows up and pulls C-3PO's head off the droid body and reattaches it to his correct body.&nbsp; Suddenly the droids all stand-down while the evil Dooko tries to get the Jedi to surrender.&nbsp; The black Jedi I guess is called something like Window?&nbsp; At any rate he refuses to have the Jedi surrender.&nbsp; Suddenly, some more spacecraft appear.&nbsp; It's Yoda with a bunch of Stormtroopers, and they attack the droids, and rescue the Jedi, but leaving R2-D2 and C-3PO behind.&nbsp; Now we see Boba Phet with his father's helmet? head? (a bit grotesque?).&nbsp; The Seperatists are stunned, &quot;How could the Jedi have come up with an army so quickly?&quot;</p>

<p>Lots of battle scenes with the Republic's clone army battling the Seperatist's droid army.&nbsp; In a scene with Douku we find out that he also has a Master who we don't know yet.&nbsp; He is going to smuggle the &quot;designs for the ultimate weapon&quot; out of the battle so they won't be found by the Jedi.&nbsp; But Obi-Wan and Anakin spot Dooku trying to escape and follow him.&nbsp; During the battle, Amidala falls to the desert below, and Anakin and Obi-Wan argue over whether to rescue her or continue following Dokoo. Anakin exclaims, &quot;I can't leave her!&quot; &quot;What would she do if she were in your position?&quot;, replies Obi-Wan.&nbsp; &quot;She would do her duty&quot;, says Anakin.&nbsp; And so they continue and find Dukuu in a cave.&nbsp; Anakin impulsively rushes him and is felled and knocked-out by lightning bolts that shoot from Dokoo's fingertips. &quot;As you can see my Jedi powers are far beyond yours&quot;, says Duukuu to Obi-Wan.&nbsp; Obi-Wan and Cookoo now fight and Obi is hurt.&nbsp; Anakin wakes up and fights Poopoo for a while until the audience is screaming &quot;We're DONE!&quot;.&nbsp; So finally he cuts off Anakin's arm at the elbow.&nbsp; Just then Yoda saunters in, and Count TouCoo starts throwing large metal objects at him, which of course Yoda casts aside.&nbsp; Then weePoo tries to make the ceiling fall on Yoda, but Yoda casts that aside as well.&nbsp; Just when you think you're watching <em>Clash of the Titans</em>, we finally get some more dialogue. &quot;I've become more powerful than any Jedi&quot;, says MincedDoo.</p>

<p>Then Dooku and Yoda start exchanging lightning bolts, then fight with light sabers.&nbsp; Yoda does lots of pointless acrobatic tricks during this sequence.&nbsp; Dooko taking advantage of actually making sense, tries to drop something onto the still-prostrate bodies of Anakin and Obi-Wan and then escapes while Yoda is distracted trying to prevent them from becoming flat versions.&nbsp; Just then, Amidala shows up and fires after the fleeing spacecraft of Dooko to no avail.&nbsp; Now Dooku escapes and returns to Lord Sidious his master, who we recognized as the same guy who later became the Emperor.&nbsp; The plans he is carrying are for the Death Star, which has yet to be built.&nbsp; Obi-Wan thinks they have achieved a great victory, but Yoda says no, this is only the beginning of the Clone War!&nbsp; Then we see images of huge armies and spacecraft with Dooko standing on a balcony viewing them.</p>
