It's time to recognize how good the Detective Obi-Wan Kenobi plot is in 'Attack of the Clones.'
Star Wars: Attack of the Clones is not a good movie. On its 20th anniversary, there’s no need to go another lengthy diatribe on the shortcomings of this blockbuster that nerds have been beating into the ground for decades now. However, it’s worth briefly mentioning that this motion picture may serve as the nadir of the Star Wars prequel trilogy only because it’s equally worth mentioning that Attack of the Clones is not devoid of worthwhile material.
Granted, visually, this subplot could stand to take even greater influence from this genre. There aren’t as many shadows or striking uses of darkness as Obi-Wan pursues the truth compared to, say, The Third Man. Still, you can feel Lucas coming a bit more alive in his framing of one man hunting for answers in a society gone corrupt, a narrative template that has decades of history in Hollywood filmmaking.
This storyline also works well when compared to the rest of Attack of the Clones because of its genuine unpredictability. So much of the Star Wars prequels hinges on characters whose journeys we’ve already seen completed. It’s hard to get invested in the Anakin/Padme romance because, among other shortcomings, we know what the end result of this dynamic is way in advance.
