Idk if you can just ignore the acting in a movie, but I’ll also always defend the prequels to some degree. Yes, George Lucas missed in terms of the tone, but as you said at it’s core there is a compelling story. Unlike the sequels that have some great visuals, but completely fail in terms of story.
I mean they would certainly have been better with better acting, but my point was that if you look at the big picture, it holds up. You just might have to squint a little to blur out some of the finer details…
But yes, I think we can all agree that the sequels were criminally shit. High production costs ≠ good movies…
