Star Wars: Clone Wars

Star Wars: Clone Wars is a two hour animation production by CartoonNetwork that bridges the storylines of Episode II and Episode III. This installment of the series is done very well, although it doesn't use the original actors for voiceovers and is a little lacking in the audio quality as the new music was not done by John Williams or performed with a full orchestra (from what I can tell).

Still, as a purely entertaining movie, it's good. It's heavily action driven, with much less storyline or character development than the movies, but the action is focused and epic. The majority of the animation work was done via CG, and that allows for some great scenes. But the character designs were too caricature-like for my taste. There are some nice inside jokes and tributes to the feature films, and overall I really enjoyed it.
